1. A structure for extending the field area of a device equipped with an RF tag reader, comprising:

  • at least one reader coupling area for inductively coupling with an RF tag reader; and

    at least one tag coupling area for coupling with an RF tag;

    wherein the tag coupling area is disposed outside the field area of the RF tag reader; and

    the reader coupling area is conductively coupled to the tag coupling area such that a signal induced in the reader coupling area by the RF reader creates a signal in the tag coupling area, thereby inducing a signal in the tag, and allowing the RF reader to communicate with the tag.
