An Adaptive RFID Anti-Collision Algorithm Based on Dynamic Framed ALOHA

摘要

The collision of ID signals from a large number of co-located passive RFID tags is a serious problem; to realize a practical RFID systems we need an effective anti-collision algorithm. This letter presents an adaptive algorithm to minimize the total time slots and the number of rounds required for identifying the tags within the RFID reader's interrogation zone. The proposed algorithm is based on the framed ALOHA protocol, and the frame size is adaptively updated each round. Simulation results show that our proposed algorithm is more efficient than the conventional algorithms based on the framed ALOHA.
