Adaptive binary splitting for efficient RFID tag anti-collision

Tag collision arbitration for passive RFID tags is a significant issue for fast tag identification. This letter presents a novel tag anti-collision scheme called adaptive binary splitting (ABS). For reducing collisions, ABS assigns distinct timeslots to tags by using information obtained from the last identification process. Our performance evaluation shows that ABS outperforms other tree based tag anti-collision protocols.     

Multi-branch query tree protocol for solving RFID tag collision problem

The technology of anti-collision is a key point in radio frequency identification （RFID） system. To avoid data collision, there are two approaches： ALOHA based algorithm and binary tree （BT） based algorithm. However, these cannot solve the collision problem completely, especially when the tag quantity is big and the tag ID is long. In this article, we present a multi-branch query tree （MBQT） protocol based on balanced incomplete block design （BIBD） code, and use 16-bit vectors derived from the BIBD as query prefix symbols of RFID reader. Compared with the conventional anti-collision algorithm, the theoretic analysis and simulation show that the proposed protocol improves the identification efficiency.

Adaptive Binary Splitting: A RFID Tag Collision Arbitration Protocol for Tag Identification

In the RFID system, a reader recognizes tags through communications over a shared wireless channel. When multiple tags transmit their IDs at the same time, the tag-to-reader signals lead to collision. Tag collision arbitration for passive RFID tags is significant for fast identification since collisions disturb the reader's identification process. This paper presents an Adaptive Binary Splitting (ABS) protocol which is an improvement on the binary tree protocol. To reduce collisions and identify tags efficiently, ABS uses information which is obtained from the last processes of tag identification. Our performance evaluation shows that ABS outperforms other tree based tag anti-collision protocols. This work was supported by Korea Research Foundation Grant (KRF-2005-041-D00680).

A Novel RFID Tag Identification Protocol: Adaptive n-Resolution and k-Collision Arbitration

Since radio frequency identification (RFID) technology has become increasingly common in numerous applications, including large-scale supply chain management, improving the efficiency of RFID tag identification is an important task. In practical settings, the identification of RFID tags often occurs in a dynamic environment, in which tags move through a specific interrogation range. However, the literature contains few studies on the design of efficient identification protocols in dynamic environments. This study proposes a novel tag identification protocol that is particularly efficient in dynamic environments. the proposed protocol involves two anti-collision techniques: adaptive n-Resolution (AnR) and k-Collision Arbitration (kCA). These two techniques significantly improve the tag identification delay and communication overhead. This improvement is primarily due to the use of a newly designed challenge-response bit sequence mechanism and the information obtained from the previous tag identification procedure. As a result, AnR requires only a constant number of interrogation times regardless of the number of target tags, while kCA further improves the efficiency of tag identification with \(k\) -splitting collision arbitration. Rigorous analysis and simulation experiments show that this tag identification protocol significantly outperforms related methods (by at least 48.85 % identification delay and 23.87 % communication overhead can).

Performance evaluation based on numerical and simulation results shows that the proposed anti-collision method improves RFID identification performance.     

一种自适应的无线射频识别系统中的防冲突算法(英文)

A novel anti-collision algorithm in RFID wireless network is proposed.As it is put forward on the basis of collision tree(CT)and improved collision tree(lCT) anti-collision protocols,we call it adaptive collision tree protocol(ACT).The main novelty of this paper is that the AD strategy is introduced and used in ACT to decrease collisions and improve the tag system throughput.AD strategy means that query strings will divide into two or four branches adaptively according to the label quantity.This scheme can decrease both depth of query and collision timeslots,and avoid producing too much idle timeslots at the same time.Both theoretical analysis and simulation results indicate that the novel proposed anticollision protocol ACT outperforms the previous CT and ICT protocols in term of time complexity,system throughput,and communication complexity.

RFID technology acts as a bridge to connect the physical world with the digital space, and RFID system is pervading our daily life in the last few years. The energy consumed by the reader and a tag in resolving the collisions caused by multiple tags is a key issue that affects life time of mobile reader and active tags, as well as the identification accuracy of passive tags.

A New Scalable Lightweight Grouping Proof Protocol for RFID systems

Radio-frequency Identification (RFID) grouping proof protocol is widely used in medical healthcare industry, transportation industry, crime forensics and so on,it is a research focus in the field of information security. The RFID grouping proof protocol is to prove that some tags belong to the same group and exist simultaneously. To improve the applicability of the RFID grouping proof protocol in low cost tag applications, this paper proposes a new scalable lightweight RFID grouping proof protocol. Tags in the proposed protocol only generate pseudorandom numbers and execute exclusive-or(XOR) operations. An anti-collision algorithm based on adaptive 4-ary pruning query tree (A4PQT) is used to identify the response message of tags. Updates to secret information in tags are kept synchronized with the verifier during the entire grouping proof process. Based on these innovations, the proposed protocol resolves the scalability issue for low-cost tag systems and improves the efficiency and security of the authentication that is generated by the grouping proof. Compared with other state-of-the art protocols, it is shows that the proposed protocol requires lower tag-side computational complexity, thereby achieving an effective balance between protocol security and efficiency.
