RFID 기술의 신속한 확산을 위해서는 태그의 저가격화, 초소형화, 저전력화, 보안 및 프라이버시 문제, 태그식별자의 표준화, 다중태그 식별문제등이 우선적으로 해결되어야 한다. 특히, 식별영역 내에 다수의 태그가 존재할 경우에 다중태그 식별(multi-tag identification)을 위한 충돌방지(anticollision) 알고리즘은 RFID 시스템 구축에 있어서 반드시 해결해야 하는 핵심기술이다. 기존의 충돌방지 알고리즘들은 구현의 복잡성과 낮은 성능이 문제로 제기되고 있으며 지금까지 충돌방지와 관련하여 진행된 대부분의 연구들은 각각 고유한 형태의 태그식별자 체계를 기반으로 진행되어 왔으며 태그식별성능에 대한 비교연구도 부족한 상태이다. 본 논문에서는 저비용(low-cost) RFID 시스템에서 현재 표준화가 진행되고 있는 96비트 EPC (Electronic Product Code) 코드를 기반으로 병원 환경에서 태그에 우선순위를 부여하여 충돌이 발생하면 우선순위가 가장 높은 것부터 읽어들일 수 있는 그룹 트리 알고리즘을 제안하였다.

This paper proposes a QT_rev algorithm for identifying multiple tags. The proposed QT_rev algorithm is based on the query tree algorithm. In the algorithm, the tag will send all the bits of their identification codes when the query string matches the first bits of their identification codes. On the other hand, in the QT_rev algorithm, the tag will send the remaining bits of their identification codes. After the leader receives all the responses of the tags, it knows which bit is collided. Therefore, if the collision occurs in the last bit, the reader can identify two tags simultaneously without further query. According to the simulation results, the QT_rev algorithm outperforms the QT algorithm in terms of the number of queries and the number of response bits.

In RFID system. when a variety of tags are present in the interrogation zone of a single reader at the same time, the system requires a multiple tag identification scheme that allows the reader to read data from the individual tags. Anti-collision algorithms required for the multiple tag identification are essential for the implementation of RFID system. This paper analyzed the performance of SFSA algorithm, which is easy to implement. According to the analytical results, the algorithm's performances are closely related with the number of tags and the frame size.

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is one of the most promising air interface technologies in the future for object identification using radio wave. If there are multiple tags within the range of the RFID tag reader, all tags send their tag identifications to the reader at the same time in response to the reader's query. This causes collisions on the reader and no tag is identified. A multi-tag identification problem is a core issue in the RFID. It can be solved by anti-collision algorithm such as slot based ALHOA algorithms and tree based algorithms. This paper, proposes a collision tree based anti-collision algorithm using collision tree in RFID system. It is a memory-less algorithm and is an efficient RFID anti-collision mechanism. The collision tree is a mechanism that can solve multi-tag identification problem. It is created in the process of querying and responding between the reader and tags. If the reader broadcasts K bits of prefix to multiple tags, all tags with the identifications matching the prefix transmit the reader the identifications consisted of k+1 bit to last. According to the simulation result, a proposed collision tree based anti-collision algorithm shows a better performance compared to tree working algorithm and query tree algorithm.

An RFID system consists of radio frequency tags attached to objects that need to be identified and one or more electromagnetic readers. Unlike the traditional bar code system, the great benefit of RFID technology is that it allows information to be read without requiring contact between the tag and the reader. For this contact-less feature, RFID technology in the near future will become an attractive alternative to bar code in many application fields. In almost all the 13.56MHz RFID systems, FSA algorithm is used for identifying multiple tags in the reader's identification range. In FSA algorithm, the tag identification time and system efficiency depend mainly on the number of tags and frame size. In this paper, we propose a tag number estimation scheme and a dynamic frame size allocation scheme based on the estimated number of tags.

RFID technology has been gradually expanding its application. One of the important performance issues in RFID systems is to resolve the collision among multi-tags identification on restricted area. We consider a new anti-collision scheme based on Class Identification algorithm using Depth-First scheme. We evaluate how much performance can be improved by Class identification algorithm in the cases of Query-tree more then 17% identification rate and 150% performance.

RFID(Radio frequency IDentification) is a technology that automatically identifies objects containing the electronic tags by using radio wave. The multi-tag identification problem is the core issue in the RFID and could be resolved by the anti-collision algorithm. However, most of the existing anti-collision algorithms have a problem of heavy implementation cost and low performance. In this paper. we propose a new tree based memoryless anti-collision algorithm called a collision tracking tree algorithm and presents its performance evaluation results obtained by simulation. The Collision Tracking Tree algorithm proves itself the capability of an identification rate of 749 tags per second and the performance evaluation results also show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the other two existing tree-based memoryless algorithms, i.e., the tree-walking algorithm and the query tree algorithm about 49 and 2.4 times respectively.

RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) is a technology that automatically identifies objects attached with electronic tags by using radio wave. For the implementation of an RFID system, an anti-collision algorithm is required to identify several tags within the RFID reader's range. Few researches report the performance trade-off among anti-collision algorithms in terms of the communications traffic between the reader and tags, the identification speed, and so on. In this paper, we analyze both tree based memoryless algorithms and slot aloha based algorithms that comprise of almost every class of existing anti-collision algorithms. To compare the performance, we evaluated each class of anti-collision algorithms with respect to low-cost RFID system with 96-bit EPC(Electronic Product Code). The results show that the collision tracking tree algorithm outperforms current tree based and aloha based algorithms by at least 2 times to 50 times.

In RFID system, when multiple tags respond simultaneously, a collision can occur. A method that solves this collision is referred as anti-collision algorithm. In 13.56MHz RFID system of Auto-ID center, STAC protocol is defined as an anti-collision algorithm for multiple tag reading. The PS algorithm divides the tags within the identification range of reader into smaller groups by increasing the transmission power incrementally and identifies them. In this paper, we propose a STAC/PS algorithm that the PS algorithm is applied in the STAC protocol. Through simulations, it is demonstrated that the collision rate for the proposed algorithm is about 50% lower than STAC protocol. Therefore, the STAC/PS algorithm can achieve faster tag identification speed compared with STAC protocol due to the low collision rate.

RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) is a technology that automatically identifies objects containing the electronic tags by using radio wave. When there are some tags in the domain of the RFID reader, the mechanism that can solve a collision between the tags occurs is necessary. The multi tag identification problem is the core issue in the RFID and could be resolved by the anti-collision algorithm. However, RFID system has another problem. The problem id user information security. Tag response easily by query of reader, so the system happened user privacy violent problem by tag information exposure. In the case, RFID system id weak from sniffing by outside. In this paper, We study of security robustness for tree-walking algorithm, query tree algorithm and advanced query tree algorithm of tree based memoryless algorithm.
