Radio frequency identification inlay with improved readability
First Claim
1. A radio-frequency identification (RFID) inlay comprising:
- a microchip;
an antenna coupled to a port of the microchip;
a ground-plane disposed substantially parallel to the antenna;
a high-impedance body disposed substantially parallel to the antenna and between the antenna and the ground-plane; and
a continuous insulating layer disposed between the ground-plane and the high-impedance body to electrically insulate the high-impedance body from the ground-plane.

Abstract
A radio-frequency identification (RFID) inlay is provided that is substantially isolated from the environment in proximity to one side of the device. A radio-frequency identification (RFID) inlay is provided including a two-port microchip having a first and a second port, a first antenna coupled to the first port of the two-port microchip, a ground-plane, a first high-impedance body disposed substantially parallel to the first antenna and between the first antenna and the ground-plane, the first high-impedance body insulated from the ground-plane. The RFID inlay further includes a second antenna coupled to the second port of the two-port microchip, and a second high-impedance body disposed substantially parallel to the second antenna and between the second antenna and the ground-plane, the second high-impedance body insulated from the ground-plane.
