Abstract: The present invention relates to a permanently attached UHF band RFID tire tag and a manufacturing method thereof, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a permanently attached UHF band RFID tire tag and a manufacturing method thereof, which is attached to a tire surface during the manufacturing process of a tire in a high-temperature and high-pressure environment, enabling the management of tire manufacturing history from the beginning of the production to product shipment, and thereafter, the durability is maintained even in the flexing motion of a tire that occurs while the tire is installed and operated in a vehicle such that chip damage of a tag and tag detachment from the tire do not occur, and therefore, it enables RFID communication to be performed without obstacles until the end of a tire life.
Abstract: Disclosed herein is a built-in RFID tire tag. The built-in RFID tire tag includes an antenna and a circuit unit. The antenna is mounted in a tire, and is configured to be operated by resonating with radio waves, which are transmitted from an RFID reader and to have a repetitive corrugated shape. The circuit unit is configured to be operated by being supplied with power using the radio waves. The antenna includes a pair of tag radiators. Each of the tag radiators is divided into a first region and a second region. The corrugation density of the second regions, which are close to the circuit unit, is greater than that of the first regions, which are not close to the circuit unit. The first regions, which depend on rotational motion of the tire, adapt flexibly to bending and torsion of the tire by the difference between the corrugation densities.
