RFID처럼 개방형 네트워크의 특성상 프로톨콜이 노출 되는 문제점이 발생한다. 또한 광범위한 지역에서 RFID사용과 임시적인 RFID사용은 비용 상 문제점이 있다. 본 논문은 RFID의 요소 중 DB(Server)를 제외한 리더와 태그 간의 통신을 통한 인증 프로토콜을 제안하며, 악의적인 사용자에 의해서 이용될 수 있는 정보노출의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 기존 제안된 방식에서 프로토콜의 단계를 고려한 프로토콜을 제안한다. 또한 리더와 태그만의 구성으로 비용을 절감하고자 하며, AVISPA를 이용하여 제안한 프로토콜의 안전성을 검증 한다

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) identifies a specific object by radio signals. As the tag provides a unique ID for the purpose of identification, RFID technology effectively solves the ambiguity and occlusion problem that challenges the laser or camera-based approach. This paper proposes an approach to track a moving object based on the integration of RFID and laser ranging information using a particle filter. To be precise, we split laser scan points into different clusters which contain the potential moving objects and calculate the radial velocity of each cluster. The velocity information is compared with the radial velocity estimated from RFID phase difference. In order to achieve the positioning of the moving object, we select a number of K best matching clusters to update the weights of the particle filter. To further improve the positioning accuracy, we incorporate RFID signal strength information into the particle filter using a pre-trained sensor model. The proposed approach is tested on a SCITOS service robot under different types of tags and various human velocities. The results show that fusion of signal strength and laser ranging information has significantly increased the positioning accuracy when compared to radial velocity matching-based or signal strength-based approaches. The proposed approach provides a solution for human machine interaction and object tracking, which has potential applications in many fields for example supermarkets, libraries, shopping malls, and exhibitions.

In this paper, we propose a modified I/Q diversity scheme receiver of UHF RFID reader system. The modified I/Q diversity receiver is more robust than the conventional homodyne receiver in the wireless noisy, fading channel and phase noise environments by making use of additional axes. In particular, it is shown that the closer the phase difference ${\theta}(t)$ between the reader and the tag to ${\pi}/4$, the larger performance improvement we can get. The performance of the proposed receiver is verified by equations and is demonstrated by the computer simulation for various difference ${\theta}(t)$ cases.

Recently, RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification) market spread in industry region is entering a phase of stagnation due to cost issue. RFID tag inlay cost has become relatively more expensive due to the recent decrease in chip price. Therefore, a simple and rapid design technique for RFID tag has yet to be implemented to achieve low cost. This paper presents a design technique considering chip impedance for antenna design for improved accuracy and computation time. As a result, it is confirmed that analysis error for resonance ranges within 20MHz and readable range error falls within 1.5m.

In this paper a Fractional-N frequency synthesizer is designed for UHF RFID readers. It satisfies the ISO/IEC frequency band($860{\sim}960MHz$) and is also applicable to mobile RFID readers. A VCO is designed to operate at 1.8GHz band such that the LO pulling effect is minimized. The 900MHz differential I/Q LO signals are obtained by dividing the differential signal from an integrated 1.8GHz VCO. It is designed using a $0.18{\mu}m$ RF CMOS process. The measured results show that the designed circuit has a phase noise of -103dBc/Hz at 100KHz offset and consumes 9mA from a 1.8V supply. The channel switching time of $10{\mu}s$ over 5MHz transition have been achieved, and the chip size including PADs is $1.8{\times}0.99mm^2$.

The terrestrial-DMB (T-DMB) provides one-way broadcasting service in intial phase and two-way interactive data services through a return channel of mobile communications network are commercialized recently. The possible evolution of the T-DMB will be fully convergence between the T-DMB and other communication services such as telematics, RFID and so on. From this evolution point of view, a framework should be defined for supporting telematics and RFID applications on T-BMB platform. In this paper, we propose an integrated service model that could support RFID application services on the interactive T-DMB. To realize the model, we design a service scenario, a network reference model, functionalities of each entity, a data transmission mechanism messages, and coding rules. The service model could allow users to support the identical RFID application services over the T-DMB network even if T-DMB terminal doesn't have RFID reader capability. In addition, in the case for providing the interactive TTI(Traffic and Travel Information)service, users could utilize the current location based RFID application service using by the TPEG-Location application that forms the basis of user location referencing. The messages structure is designed by following TPEG standardization

UHF and microwave RFID systems are widely applied in various fields because they can read a plurality of tag information within a radius of several meters ahead of the RFID reader. However, they cannot detect the position of the tag in applications that recognize only a tag at a specific position. In this study, we propose a new RFID system that can interrogate the tag of a specific location selectively by using the position information of the tag. This can be done by only adjusting the reader's operating frequency. To verify the feasibility of the proposed system, we implemented a 2.4 GHz RFID reader whose frequency can be varied by using a phase-locked loop circuit and a backscattered tag. Experimental results confirm that the tag position can be sensed exactly.

As the existing contactless power transfer system(CPTS) is adopting the principle of contactless transformer enables to supply power in contactless way using RFID(radio frequency identification)/ID communication method between primary and secondary sides of contactless transformer and detect the alien load. Such CPTS requires the circuit that generates ID in addition, and the ID identification and control generated from the secondary side is performed at the primary side, which cuases complexity of the circuit. Therefore, this study suggested the CPTS using voltage phase, and In order to verify the validity of this study, 3[W] class CPTS shall be designed, and the simulation and test of CPTS using current and voltage phases shall be carried out.

This paper proposes a modified tag collection algorithm that improves the drawback of the identified slot scan-based tag collection algorithm presented in a previous paper to improve the tag collection performance in active RFID systems. The previous identified slot scan-based tag collection algorithm is optimized in situations where all the tags store the fixed size of data, so it could not result in a good performance improvement with tags having the variable size of data. The improved tag collection algorithm proposed in this paper first collects the slot size information required for the data transmission from each tag via the identified slot scan phase, and then performs the tag collection phase using the information, which resolves the problem of the previous identified slot scan-based tag collection algorithm. The simulation results for performance evaluation showed that the proposed tag collection algorithm resulted in the almost same tag collection performance as the previous algorithm when all the tags have the same size of data and led a large improvement of the tag collection performance in ISO/IEC 18000-7 unlike the previous algorithm when each tag has a random size of data.

In order to improve readability, a leakage-signal canceller has been proposed in UHF-band RFID readers. The proposed canceller is composed of two blocks: an environment monitoring block for detection of Tx and RX power levels and a leakage cancellation block. The leakage canceller consists of directional-couplers, digital attenuators and phase shifters based on the feed-forward scheme. The leakage canceller is located between antenna and reader. An improved experimental characterization of the scheme is presented with results from the reader operating in the Korean RFID frequency band, conforming the validity of the approach with more than 29 dB of leakage cancellation.
