Capacitive fed Coplanar waveguide slot antenna for RFID applications

In this paper capacitive fed Coplanar waveguide slot antenna is proposed for RFID applications. The fundamental parameters of the antenna such as bandwidth, return loss, gain, radiation pattern and polarization are obtained. All meets the acceptable antenna standards. Simulation tool, based on the method of moments (ZELAND IE3D version 12.0) has been used to analyze and optimize the proposed antenna.
