Security and privacy are the inherent problems in RFID communications. There
are several protocols have been proposed to overcome those problems. Hash chain
is commonly employed by the protocols to improve security and privacy for RFID
authentication. Although the protocols able to provide specific solution for

This article is a survey to closely observe those protocols in terms of its
focus and limitations.Comment: Third ICCIT 2008 International Conference on Convergence and Hybrid
