First Claim
Patent Images
1. An IC tag comprisingan IC chip operable with radio waves;
- a first antenna electrically connected to the IC chip; and
at least one second antenna capacitively coupled with the first antenna via an insulating material,the IC chip being connected to the first antenna over a slit formed in the first antenna used for impedance matching,the at least one second antenna being connected with the first antenna to avoid overlapping with the slit of the first antenna.

Abstract
The RFID tag is composed of the first antenna of metal film layer on which the IC chip is mounted and at least one second antenna of metal film layer on which the IC chip is not mounted The metal film layer is formed on the base, and the metal film layer is formed on the base. The metal film layer partially overlaps the metal film layer with the base interposed between them, so that the first antenna and the second antenna are capacitively coupled to each other.

6. A method for fabricating an IC tag comprising the steps of
forming a first antenna and at least one second antenna on a base of insulating flexible material; -
electrically connecting an IC chip operable with radio waves to the first antenna via a slit; providing capacitive coupling between the first antenna and the at least one second antenna without overlapping with the slit at end portion of the first antenna and the at least one second antenna, and folding the base at a predetermined space by bending the at least one second antenna toward the first antenna and then bending back the at least one second antenna so that the end portion of the first antenna and the end portion of the at least one second antenna overlap each other with the base interposed between them so that the capacitive coupling is formed between the first antenna and the at least one second antenna and the at least one second antenna is arranged at a side of the end portion of the first antenna. - View Dependent Claims (8)
