Abstract

In various embodiments, a Radio Frequency Identification apparatus includes a coupling body having a metal material and a transponder chip configured to contactlessly transmit data. The transponder chip is physically coupled to the coupling body, has a storage element which stores the data, and has a first electrode which is at a distance from the coupling body. The coupling body is in the form of a second electrode for the transponder chip configured to couple the transponder chip to an external Radio Frequency Identification reader for reading the data.
