Abstract

The wireless tag includes an antenna conductor; a first power-supply conductor which is electromagnetic-inductively coupled with the antenna conductor; and a second power-supply conductor which is loop-shaped and which is electrically coupled with the first power-supply conductor.

Claims (18)

1. A wireless tag comprising:

an antenna conductor;

a first power-supply conductor which is electromagnetic-inductively coupled with the antenna conductor; and

a second power-supply conductor which is loop-shaped and which is electrically coupled with the first power-supply conductor.

2. The wireless tag according to claim 1 , wherein the first power-supply conductor has a form of a dipole antenna or a monopole antenna.

3. The wireless tag according to claim 1 , wherein the antenna conductor, the first power-supply conductor, and the second power-supply conductor are arranged at a first surface of a dielectric substrate.

4. The wireless tag according to claim 1 , wherein

the antenna conductor is arranged at a first surface of a dielectric substrate; and

the first power-supply conductor and the second power-supply conductor are arranged at a second surface of the dielectric substrate.

5. The wireless tag according to claim 1 , further comprising a reinforcement member which covers the first power-supply conductor and the second power-supply conductor in avoidance of the antenna conductor.

6. The wireless tag according to claim 1 , wherein the electrical length of a part of the first power-supply conductor which part is electromagnetic-inductively coupled with the antenna conductor is set to be equal to or less than the half of a wavelength of a signal transceived by the antenna conductor.

7. The wireless tag according to claim 1 , wherein the electrical length of the second power-supply conductor is shorter than a wavelength of a signal transceived by the antenna conductor.

8. A method for producing a wireless tag, the method comprising:

forming an antenna conductor;

forming a first power-supply conductor which is electromagnetic-inductively coupled with the antenna conductor; and

forming a second power-supply conductor which is loop-shaped and which is electrically coupled with the first power-supply conductor.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein impedance matching between the antenna conductor and an integrated circuit, with which the first power-supply conductor and the second power-supply conductor are electrically coupled, is controlled by varying an electrical length of a part of the first power-supply conductor which part is electromagnetic-inductively coupled with the antenna conductor.

10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein impedance matching between the antenna conductor and an integrated circuit, with which the first power-supply conductor and the second power-supply conductor are electrically coupled, is controlled by varying an electrical length of the second power-supply conductor.
