1. A tag integrated circuit (IC) module apparatus, comprising:

  • an n-turn loop coil connected in series with a tag IC, n denoting a natural number; and

    a first printed circuit board (PCB) disposed below the tag IC and patterned with the n-turn loop coil;

    wherein the tag IC is disposed over opposite ends of the coil on an upper surface of the PCB and connects the opposite ends across a gap separating the opposite ends;

    wherein the n-turn loop inductively couples an induced radio frequency (RF) signal to a metal body and transfers the induced RF signal to the tag IC when the tag IC module apparatus is attached to the metal body.
