A Flexible UHF RFID Respiratory Sensor

open access: yesJournal of Microwaves, Optoelectronics and Electromagnetic Applications
Abstract In this study, we developed a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) sensor to monitor respiratory rates. The sensor utilizes a passive RFID tag enhanced with a metamaterial-inspired structure to boost its maximum gain value. This gain increased from -0.39 dBi to 0.57 dBi. Monitoring of the respiratory rate was conducted by analyzing variations
