Patent Images
1. A sensor tag comprising:
- a resonator having a resonant frequency corresponding to a sensed physical quantity; and
an antenna that radiates a signal generated by resonance of the resonator to the outside;
wherein the antenna is formed such that a resonant frequency ratio between the resonant frequency of the resonator and a self-resonant frequency of the antenna falls within a ratio range, the ratio range being selected based on an inductance ratio between an equivalent inductance of the resonator and an equivalent inductance of the antenna.

Abstract
A sensor tag (10) includes a crystal vibrator (110) and an antenna (102). The antenna (102) is composed of a radiating conductor (121) and connection conductors (122). A crystal vibrator (110) is mounted on land conductors (120) provided at an end portion of the connection conductors (122) on the opposite side to the antenna (121). The antenna (102) is formed in a shape such that an amount of shift (ΔF) of a radiation frequency of the sensor tag (10) falls within an acceptable range in accordance with a resonant frequency (Fxs) and an equivalent inductance (Lxs) of the crystal vibrator (110) and a self-resonant frequency (Fant) and an equivalent inductance (Lant) of the antenna (102).
