Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is an expanding technology that enables radio detection and recognition of the objects associated with an identification code carried by an electronic chip which is attached to tag. RFID belongs to group of technologies which is referred as Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC). AIDC methods automatically identify the objects, collect the data, and analyze the data from the object. RFID’s being extensively used in different kinds of applications and is one of the most promising in the field of IOT (Internet of Things). The design of the RFID system deals with mainly two components which are RFID tag and the RFID reader, both the system contains an antenna in it. The Near-field reader antenna is designed for UHF Gen-2 item-level tagging systems. And it is optimized to read near-field tags placed on products with a variety of packaging options. The near-field antenna for the RFID applications is designed for a particular range of frequency band using a tool called CST and it will be fabricated on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) for the required specifications
