Abstract

UHF RFID technology is currently being chosen to replace the existing soil monitoring system for smart agriculture. However, when attached to backing objects, the current RFID tag typically has a large footprint and a short read distance. Therefore, this paper introduces a compact tag antenna design comprising a slotted radiating patch connected to a ground plane via an inductive stub. The tag antenna is mounted on loamy soil for soil monitoring purposes. The proposed tag has a small size of only 48.2 � 48.2 mm, a power transmission coefficient of 0.99, and a longer theoretical read range of 9m.
