RFID is a generic term for technologies which use RF waves to identify, track, or categorize any object. A radio frequency identification (RFID) reader recognizes objects through wireless communications with RFID tags. Tag collision arbitration for passive tags is a significant issue for fast tag identification due to communication over a shared wireless channel. One of the research areas in RFID system is a tag anti-collision protocol. In this paper, various anti-collision protocols are discussed. The pros and cons of different anti-collision protocols are compared with each other and their performance is analyzed and the better performance anti-collision protocol is suggested.

In this paper, a QT_ecfi algorithm is proposed for identifying all the tags within the identification range. The proposed QT_ecfi algorithm revises the QT algorithm, which has a memoryless property. In the QT_ecfi algorithm, the tag will send the remaining bits of their identification codes when the query string matches the first bits of their identification codes. When the reader receives all the responses of the tags, it knows which bit is collided. If the collision occurs in the last bit, the reader can identify two tags simultaneously without further query. While the tags are sending their identification codes, if the reader detects a collision bit, it will send a signal to the tags to stop sending. According to the simulation results, the QT_ecfi algorithm outperforms the QT algorithm in terms of the number of queries and the number of response bits.

In RFID systems, the anti-collision algorithm is being improved to recognize Tag's ID within recognition area of the reader quickly and efficiently. This paper focuses on Tag collision. Many studies have been carried out to resolve Tag collision. This paper proposes a new N-ary Query Tree Algorithm to resolve more than Tag collision simultaneously, according to the value of m(2 ~ 6). This algorithm can identify more tags than existing methods by treating a maximum 6 bit collision, regardless of the continuation/non-continuation Tag's ID patterns. So, it extracts maximumly different $2^6$ bit patterns per single prefix in recognition process. The performance of N-ary Query Tree Algorithm is evaluated by theoretical analysis and simulation program.

In 13.56MHz RFID system of Auto-ID center, STAC protocol is defined as an anti-collision algorithm for multiple tag reading. In STAC protocol, the reader uses the tag number estimation scheme to determine the number of slots for the next reply round. If errors occur in the estimated number of tags, the identification performances will be degraded due to a lot of collision or idle slots. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an ERPB algorithm that the reader cancels the reply round when it experiences a series of collision or idle slots during the current round. The transmission probability control for the tag is also applied to the proposed algorithm. Through simulations, it is demonstrated that the collision rate for the proposed scheme is about 39% lower than STAC protocol. Therefore, the proposed scheme can achieve faster tag identification time compared with STAC protocol due to the low collision rate.

We analyze the tag identification procedure of conventional EPC Class 1 RFID system and propose the fast anti-collision algorithm for the performance improvement of the system. In the proposed algorithm, the reader uses information of tag collisions and reduces unnecessary procedures of the conventional algorithm. We evaluate the performance of the proposed anti-collision algorithm and the conventional algorithm using mathematical analysis and simulation. According to the results, the fast anti-collision algorithm shows greatly better performance than conventional algorithm.

Q-algorithm is proposed at EPC global Class-1 Generation-2 RFID systems to determine the frame size of next query round. In Q-algorithm, the reader calculates the frame size without estimating the number of tags. But, it uses only the slot conditions: empty, success, or collision. Therefore, it wastes less computational cost and is simpler than other algorithms. However, the constant parameter C value, which is used for calculating the next frame size, is not optimized. In this paper, we propose the optimized C values of Q-algorithm according to the number of tags within the identification range of reader through a lot of computer simulations.

최근 유비쿼터스 주요 이슈로 부각되는 Atuo ID나 유비쿼터스 ID(Ubiquitous ID)은 RFID(Radio Frefuency Identification) 태그(Tag)를 사용한 차세대 ID 체계이다. 이들 식별 체계는 해당 물품에 부착된 태그 정보를 RFID 리더(Reader)가 판독하여 이를 바탕으로 식별 작업을 수행함으로써 짧은 시간에 많은 물류 식별 처리가 가능할 수 있는 메커니즘을 가지고 있다. 하지만 리더가 수많은 태그 정보를 한꺼번에 모두 받아드림으로써 발생하는 여러 가지 오류가 발생할 수 있는데, 이를 충돌 문제(collision problem)이라 한다 본 논문은 충돌 문제들의 형태를 분석하고, 이를 개선할 수 있는 방안에 대해 모색, 제안하고자 한다.

This paper proposes an efficient tag identification scheme for ISO/IEC18000-7 standard by dividing the tags into smaller groups. Tag grouping is based on the reader's transmission power. This can reduce the responding tags in the collection round. If the small number of tags exists, we can anticipate the collision probability will decrease. And it makes the identification speed high. A collection round initiated by the reader's collection command. It also proceeds with increasing the power of the reader until all tags are identified. The results showed that 25% of the performance improved.

The use of RFID is recently increasing for the realization of Ubiquitous computing. Reducing the process time of tag recognition is crucial as RFID system has to recognize multiple objects in a short amount of time. In this manuscript, therefore, an effective scheme using multi-reader is suggested to improve processing speed for tag authentication in RFID system. According to the result of performance analysis, the processing time required for tag authentication was drastically reduced in multi-reader environment than it was in a single reader. Consequently, the use of the suggested scheme cuts down on the processing time while identifying tags by using multi-reader and bring about overall performnce improvement of RFID system.
