Analysis of the Power Outage Effects in RFID

摘要

During RFID inventories, transmission losses due to fading may cause power outage events to the tags, which loose their state and abandon the ongoing identification round. We develop an analytical model, which includes this effect and allows us to accurately characterize RFID anti-collision protocol performance. We show that power outage events produce deviations from ideal performance, leading to new criteria to set the optimal operation parameters in RFID.
