In this paper, a compact UHF RFID tag antenna that can operate at Malaysia UHF RFID frequency (860 MHz – 960MHz) is proposed. The antenna with a common geometry structure without any shorting pin consists of 90degree angled line (meander line) and double T-match structure. The proposed antenna has been designed and simulated using CST Simulation software. The proposed tag antenna design shows a good performance in terms of size, gain and impedance with a dimension of 36 mm × 25 mm × 1.6 mm. The simulated gain of antenna obtained is -0.135 dB at 910 MHz with 19 MHz bandwidth.
