Abstract

A first spacer has an arrangement surface on which a wireless IC tag is arranged, and an auxiliary antenna that resonates with electromagnetic wave used for wireless communication is provided on a surface opposite to the arrangement surface of the first spacer. A second spacer is provided opposite to the first spacer with the auxiliary antenna interposed therebetween. The first spacer and the auxiliary antenna are provided with a groove (opening) as an adjuster for resonance frequency so that the second spacer forms a bottom of the groove. Application to a plurality of communication frequencies is made possible by changing an arrangement position of the wireless IC tag with respect to the adjuster.

Claims (10)

1. A method for manufacturing an IC tag for wireless communication, comprising arranging a wireless IC tag or wireless IC tag component on an arrangement surface of a wireless communication improving sheet body to manufacture the IC tag for wireless communication, the method comprising:

providing the wireless communication improving sheet body capable of improving wireless communication properties of the wireless IC tag or wireless IC tag component mounted thereon;

determining an arrangement position of the wireless IC tag or wireless IC tag component with respect to an adjuster of the wireless communication improving sheet body according to a communication frequency of the wireless IC tag; and

arranging the wireless IC tag or wireless IC tag component at the arrangement position determined without wire connection to the wireless communication improving sheet body,

the wireless communication improving sheet body comprising:

a first spacer having the arrangement surface on which the wireless IC tag or wireless IC tag component is arranged without the wire connection;

an auxiliary antenna provided on a surface opposite to the arrangement surface of the first spacer; and

a second spacer provided opposite to the first spacer with the auxiliary antenna interposed therebetween so that the first spacer, the auxiliary antenna and the second spacer stack one another, the auxiliary antenna being provided with an opening or notch which is served as the adjuster for adjusting resonance frequency of the wireless IC tag; and

wherein determining the arrangement position further includes achieving impedance matching and resonance frequency adjustment of radio wave signals between the auxiliary antenna and an IC chip of the wireless IC tag or wireless IC tag component via electromagnetic field distribution in the adjuster without a conductive connection.

2. The IC tag for wireless communication manufactured by the method of claim 1 .
