What should be the size of an NFC antenna given an operating distance?

I am dealing with a project about a PCB with NFC antenna. We are designing PCB now. Do anyone know about the size of an NFC antenna if we want it operate in 10 centimeters?

NFC Type 4 can operate within a distance of 10 centimeters. NFC, which is compatible with ISO 15693 that is capable of  NFC phones, can operate within a distance of 100 centimeters.    

The size of an NFC antenna is related to

  • The antenna size at the tag.
  • The size of the antenna at the NFC reader.

What Others Are Asking

What is an average CPH speed for hand SMD assembly?

What would be the average speed of assembling surface mount components on to a PCB for an experienced person? Assuming they have desk that is correctly set up (pick and place station) and the PCB has solder paste already applied.

Can I design SMD elements on the back of THT?

I’m designing a PCB right now and found out I can save a lot of space using the back of THT elements. Is it legit to design like that? Are there any problems that might occur? 

How can I determine BGA land pad diameter for given ball diameter?

I’m working on a project which requires the use of a CSP package. The product’s datasheet provides ball pitch and ball diameter but nothing about the preferred land pad diameter.
How can the pad diameter be worked out from these figures assuming an NSMD land?
