Design of Wearable Moisture Sensor using UHF RFID Tags

E. N. Ganesh

Abstract


Dampness estimations of the body can be utilized for medical services purposes as well concerning helping in working out. In this paper, the reasonableness of latent UHF RFID innovation for dampness detecting is examined. The innovation has an extraordinary potential in wearable, agreeable, and remote dampness detecting frameworks, in spite of the fact that it isn't initially utilized for detecting. In our review, the label radio wire frames are weaved on a texture substrate, the label ICs are joined by weaving or with conductive paste, and the label execution as a dampness sensor is assessed by remote estimations. All labels accomplished top read scopes of around 7-8 meters, which is alright for remote dampness sensors. The impacts of dampness on the label reaction were perceptible through a recurrence scope of 900-980 MHz and the label execution was phenomenal likewise when wet. Hence, the accomplished outcomes show high capability of detached UHF RFID material labels in dampness detecting and weaving as a material label radio wire and radio wire IC interconnection manufacture strategy. The outcomes demonstrate high capability of RFID innovation in dampness detecting and furthermore support the utilization of weaving in label recieving wire and recieving wire IC interconnection creation
