In this paper a reconfigurable matching network for achieving frequency agility of an electrically small UHF RFID patch antenna is proposed. In order to allow switching under high power transmission a state-of-the-art SP3T CMOS switch is employed for selecting specific components and thus achieving a proper matching in the EU and US frequency bands. Moreover, in the proposed design, only one switch...
