Abstract
In RFID systems, identifying the tag attached to the subject begins with the request from a reader. When the reader sends a request, multiple tags in the reader's interrogation zone simultaneously respond to it, resulting in collision. The reader needs the anti collision algorithm which can quickly identify all the tags in the interrogation zone. We propose the Anti Collision Algorithm using Parity Mechanism(ACPM). In ACPM, a collision can be prevented because the tags which match with the prefix of the reader's request respond as followings; the group of tags with an even number of 1's in the bits to the prefix + 2nd bits responds in slot '0', while the group of tags with an odd number of 1's responds in slot '1'. The ACPM generates the request prefix so that the only existing tags according to the response in the corresponding slot. If there are two collided bits in tags, then reader identify tags by the parity mechanism. That is, it decreases the tag identification time by reducing the overall number of requests.
