An effective frame breaking policy for dynamic framed slotted aloha in RFID
The tag collision problem is considered as one of the critical issues in RFID system. To further improve the identification efficiency of an UHF RFID system, a frame breaking policy is proposed with dynamic framed slotted aloha algorithm. Specifically, the reader makes effective use of idle, successful, and collision statistics during the early observation phase to recursively determine the optimal frame size. Then the collided tags in each slot will be resolved by individual frames. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves a better identification performance compared with the existing Aloha-based algorithms
From M-ary Query to Bit Query: a new strategy for efficient large-scale RFID identification
The tag collision avoidance has been viewed as one of the most important research problems in RFID communications and bit tracking technology has been widely embedded in query tree (QT) based algorithms to tackle such challenge. Existing solutions show further opportunity to greatly improve the reading performance because collision queries and empty queries are not fully explored. In this paper, a bit query (BQ) strategy based Mary query tree protocol (BQMT) is presented, which can not only eliminate idle queries but also separate collided tags into many small subsets and make full use of the collided bits. To further optimize the reading performance, a modified dual prefixes matching (MDPM) mechanism is presented to allow multiple tags to respond in the same slot and thus significantly reduce the number of queries. Theoretical analysis and simulations are supplemented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed BQMT and MDPM, which outperform the existing QT-based algorithms. Also, the BQMT and MDPM can be combined to BQMDPM to improve the reading performance in system efficiency, total identification time, communication complexity and average energy cost
A fast tag identification anti-collision algorithm for RFID systems
© 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. In this work, we propose a highly efficient binary tree-based anti-collision algorithm for radio frequency identification (RFID) tag identification. The proposed binary splitting modified dynamic tree (BS-MDT) algorithm employs a binary splitting tree to achieve accurate tag estimation and a modified dynamic tree algorithm for rapid tag identification. We mathematically evaluate the performance of the BS-MDT algorithm in terms of the system efficiency and the time system efficiency based on the ISO/IEC 18000-6 Type B standard. The derived mathematical model is validated using computer simulations. Numerical results show that the proposed BS-MDT algorithm can provide the system efficiency of 46% and time system efficiency of 74%, outperforming all other well-performed algorithms
A Reduced Complexity of Vahedi's Tag Estimation Method for DFSA
In order to calculate the number of tags in a radio frequency identification (RFID) system, several tag estimation methods have been investigated in literature and most of the available estimation methods need the overall knowledge of idle, success and collision slots of the previous frame to carry out the tag estimation process. In this article, we present three techniques to reduce the complexity of Vahedi’s tag estimation for tag collision resolution in RFID systems using dynamic frame slotted ALOHA. Our modified and useful approach considers the information about only the number of empty, successful or colliding slots in the previous frame for the tag estimation. Three decision rules were obtained by maximizing the likelihood of success, idle and collision which helps in the reduction of complexity substantially. However, the accuracy of estimation decreases for success-only and idle-only methods while the collision-only method gives a consistent and lower estimate error when the frame sizes and the number of tags increase

Fast splitting based tag identification algorithm for anti-collision in UHF RFID System
Efficient and effective objects identification using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is always a challenge in large scale industrial and commercial applications. Among existing solutions, the tree based splitting scheme has attracted increasing attention because of its high extendibility and feasibility. However, conventional tree splitting algorithms can only solve tag collision with counter value equals to zero and usually result in performance degradation when the number of tags is large. To overcome such drawbacks, we propose a novel tree-based method called Fast Splitting Algorithm based on Consecutive Slot Status detection (FSA-CSS), which includes a fast splitting (FS) mechanism and a shrink mechanism. Specifically, the FS mechanism is used to reduce collisions by increasing commands when the number of consecutive collision is above a threshold. Whereas the shrink mechanism is used to reduce extra idle slots introduced by FS. Simulation results supplemented by prototyping tests show that the proposed FSA-CSS achieves a system throughput of 0.41, outperforming the existing UHF RFID solutions
A Fast Anticollision Algorithm with Early Adjustment of Frame Length for the EPCglobal UHF Class-1 Generation-2 RFID Standard
This paper develops a fast algorithm to identify a large number of tags in a short period of time duration in RFID systems. The main goal of the proposed algorithm is to meet the requirement in supply chain management. In this paper, we derive mathematical model to analyze the tag identify process. Based on the analysis, we can decide the optimal frame length and when the current read round is early ended. We find that the optimal frame length should be set to 1.72 times of the number of tags when the ratio between collision-slot duration and empty-slot duration is 4. Through the use of early adjustment of frame length, the RFID interrogator examines the fitness of frame lemgth only at three time slots in each read round. The primary advantage of our algorithm is the ability to achieve a good compromise between throughput performance and computation complexity
