In the textile industry, passive radio frequency identification (RFID) tag integration is increasing from warehouse tracking to production follow-up and healthcare applications. The proposed work introduces the in-silico design of a 30x30 mm2 textile-based chipless RFID (CRFID) tag with circular transmission lines for item identification using the CST Microwave Studio application. The tag antenna was designed with stainless steel/polyester twisted yarn integrated into the polypropylene tag fabric using the embroidery technique. The antenna was tested for its readability of the embedded code in the simulations with a range of 0-20 GHz frequency band, and its Radar Cross Section (RCS) responses, return losses (S1,1), E-field, H-field, and Farfield performances were obtained. As a result, 9-bit code capacity and 1-bit/cm2 code density were achieved. The UHF antenna design simulation results demonstrated the feasibility of using textile-based materials to create a CRFID tag that was lightweight, durable, and cost-effective. The CRFID tag can store and transmit data without a chip, making it ideal for healthcare applications.
