    Abstract

    In this paper, designs of an RFID-enabled tag antenna as well as two other miniaturized antennas are proposed for wireless sensors for agricultural applications, all of which are based on patch antennas around the resonant frequency of 2.45 GHz. With the use of the simulation tool CST MWS, these antennas were designed and optimized. They allow not only the integration of a microchip but also of a sensor commonly used in the agricultural field such as a humidity/temperature sensor.
