ABSTRACT: The RFID is a rapidly developing technology. It’s used in many applications such as logistics, ticketing, security, employee attendance record and others. Also, fractal technology is used in many areas, and recently in antenna design because it allows making multi-band and wide-band antennas. In this paper, two tri-band fractal antennas are studied for the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) applications using the Method of Moment (MoM). The first one is designed for the RFID readers and it operates at 3.85 GHZ, 5.80 GHZ and 8.12 GHZ. The second one is designed for the RFID Tags and it operates at 3.94 GHZ, 5.65 GHZ and 8.20 GHZ.
