The basic principle of the conventional UHF electronic tag is that an antenna on the electronic tag is used for receiving electromagnetic wave signals from a reader-writer and a transmitting tag, and when the reader-writer scans the UHF electronic tag, the tag-marked object is automatically identified. The UHF electronic tag generally consists of a tag antenna and a tag dedicated chip, the tag antenna is used for receiving and transmitting electromagnetic wave signals, and the performance of the tag antenna is directly related to the stability and sensitivity (effective operating distance) of the received and transmitted signals; the tag chip is equivalent to a data storage with wireless modulation transmitting and receiving functions, and the performance of the tag chip determines the operating speed and the data storage capacity of the electronic tag. But there has not been a suitable label in laundry management applications. The traditional label, whether the label antenna or the label chip, cannot meet the repeated folding of clothes in water washing, and most of the two conditions, namely connection failure between the chip and the antenna or damage failure of the label antenna, become important factors influencing the application of the label. Especially, the characteristics and damage mechanism of the tag antenna are rarely researched, and the current scheme of the water-washing tag is not ideal because the research on the mechanism is less. Firstly, the label cannot be guaranteed not to be damaged or the performance of the label cannot be changed during application; secondly, the consistency of performance parameters of the initial state of the label cannot be guaranteed, and the reading requirement of a dense label group for laundry management is difficult to realize; in addition, the process and the manufacturing cost of the product of the prior scheme are high, so that the popularization of the application is limited. The application requirement of the water-washing label not only needs to have the mechanical strength of the label, but also has strong anti-bending, anti-extrusion and anti-high-speed impact capabilities, and also needs to determine the environmental applicability of the sensitivity of the label and the manufacturing process cost of the label. In addition, when the traditional RFID tag is used for hospital garment management, the traditional RFID tag is required to meet the MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) safety requirement and cannot generate artifacts. Therefore, the water-washing label not only can meet the safety and reliability of a plurality of washing cycles, but also meets the MRI safety requirement.
