A Modified Split⁃Ring Resonator Antenna for Radio Frequency Identification Tag

A compact antenna formed by three concentric split rings for ultra-high frequency(UHF)radio frequency identification(RFID)tag is proposed in this paper.The antenna is composed of two parts,an outer short-circuited ring modified from a traditional split-ring resonator(SRR)antenna and an inner SRR load,so the antenna can be regarded as a short-circuited ring loaded with SRR.According to the transmission line theory,to conjugate match with the capacitive input-impedance of a tag chip,the length of the short-circuited ring isλg/4 shorter than that of an open-circuited dipole of a traditional SRR antenna,whereλg is the wavelengh of the operating frequency.Hence,the size of the proposed antenna is more compact than that of the traditional SRR antenna.Thereafter,the proposed antenna is simulated and optimized by ANSYS high-frequency structure simulator(HFSS).The impedance,efficiency,and mutual coupling of the fabricated antenna are tested in a reverberation chamber(RC).The results show that the size of the presented antenna is 83%smaller than that of the traditional SRR antenna and the proposed antenna can cover the whole UHF RFID operating frequency band worldwide(840—960 MHz).The measured read range of the tag exhibits maximum values of 45 cm in free space and 37 cm under dense tag environment.

In order to construct a resource-saving and environment- friendly society, the advantages of radio frequency identification （RFID） were considered. And it put forward the idea of introducing RFID in the recycling activities of waste products. Taking into account such elements as the technical level of RFID, cost saving from remanufacturing and the cost of RFID tags, both centralized and decentralized supply chain models with different participants in waste product collection were created, in order to determine the optimal pricing strategy and RFID technical level. In the end, sensitivity analyses were conducted to analyze the impacts of scaling parameter for additional increased recovery rate with RFED on pricing and RFID technology level, and impacts of cost saving on the profits of participants in different remanufacturing closed-loop supply chain models.

Recovery of Collided RFID Tags With Frequency Drift on Physical Layer

In a passive ultra-high frequency(UHF)radio frequency identification(RFID)system,the recovery of collided tag signals on a physical layer can enhance identification efficiency.However,frequency drift is very common in UHF RFID systems,and will have an influence on the recovery on the physical layer.To address the problem of recovery with the frequency drift,this paper adopts a radial basis function(RBF)network to separate the collision signals,and decode the signals via FM0 to recovery collided RFID tags.Numerical results show that the method in this paper has better performance of symbol error rate(SER)and separation efficiency compared to conventional methods when frequency drift occurs.

Capture-aware Bayesian RFID Tag Estimate for Large-scale Identification

Dynamic framed slotted Aloha algorithm is one of popular passive radio frequency identification(RFID) tag anticollision algorithms. In the algorithm, a frame length requires dynamical adjustment to achieve higher identification efficiency.Generally, the adjustment of the frame length is not only related to the number of tags, but also to the occurrence probability of capture effect. Existing algorithms could estimate both the number of tags and the probability of capture effect. Under large-scale RFID tag identification, however, the number of tags would be much larger than an initial frame length. In this scenario, the existing algorithm's estimation errors would substantially increase. In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm called capture-aware Bayesian estimate, which adopts Bayesian rules to accurately estimate the number and the probability simultaneously. From numerical results, the proposed algorithm adapts well to the large-scale RFID tag identification. It has lower estimation errors than the existing algorithms. Further,the identification efficiency from the proposed estimate is also higher than the existing algorithms.

Design and simulation of self-powered radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for mobile temperature monitoring

This paper presents a design for a self-powered radio frequency identification (RFID) tag with a thin film bulk acoustic reso- nating piezoelectric power supply (PPS), which can be used for portable remote temperature monitoring. We call this system a PPS-RFID for short. The RFID systems have been found to have many applications in the internet of things (IOT) in the past decade. But semi-active RFID tags require an onboard battery which limits their applications in many fields. For these reasons, our research focuses on power sources for the RFID tags. This paper emphasizes the circuit design and simulation of PPS. In our tests, 0.283 mW was generated by PPS at 1 Hz vibration by a 650 N impact force. The results showed that the integrated PPS could supply sufficient power for the designed PPS-RFID tag. The PPS-RFID tag can be widely used for temperature monitoring during mobile transport of perishable items such as medicines or food.

Localization of pallets in warehouses using passive RFID system

Warehouse operation has become a critical activity in supply chain. Position information of pallets is important in warehouse management which can enhance the efficiency of pallets picking and sortation. Radio frequency identification(RFID) has been widely used in warehouse for item identifying.

Experiments were carried out using standard UHF passive RFID system. Experimental results show an acceptable localization accuracy which can satisfy the requirement of warehouse management.

A Physical Layer Network Coding Based Tag Anti-Collision Algorithm for RFID System

In RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification)system,when multiple tags are in the operating range of one reader and send their information to the reader simultaneously,the signals of these tags are superimposed in the air,which results in a collision and leads to the degrading of tags identifying efficiency.To improve the multiple tags’identifying efficiency due to collision,a physical layer network coding based binary search tree algorithm(PNBA)is proposed in this paper.PNBA pushes the conflicting signal information of multiple tags into a stack,which is discarded by the traditional anti-collision algorithm.In addition,physical layer network coding is exploited by PNBA to obtain unread tag information through the decoding operation of physical layer network coding using the conflicting information in the stack.Therefore,PNBA reduces the number of interactions between reader and tags,and improves the tags identification efficiency.Theoretical analysis and simulation results using MATLAB demonstrate that PNBA reduces the number of readings,and improve RFID identification efficiency.Especially,when the number of tags to be identified is 100,the average needed reading number of PNBA is 83%lower than the basic binary search tree algorithm,43%lower than reverse binary search tree algorithm,and its reading efficiency reaches 0.93.

We optimize the constraint of the event streams and propose a novel method to derive the constraint between objects, as well as the constraint between object and location. Experiments prove the proposed method reduces the cost of RFID complex event processing, and improves the efficiency of the RTLS.

Application of PRO-ESPRIT algorithm in identification of surface acoustic wave identification-tags

The surface acoustic wave （SAW） identification （ID）-tags have great potential for application in radio frequency identification （RFID） due to their characteristics of wireless sensing and passive operation. In the measurements based on the frequency domain sampling （FDS）, to expand the range of detection and allow the system work in harsh environments, it is necessary to enhance the identification capability at low SNR. In addition, to identify the tags in real time, it is important to reduce identification time. Therefore, estimation of signal parameters based on the Procrustes rotations via the rotational invariance technique （PRO-ESPRIT） is adopted. Experimental results show that good identification capability is achieved with a relatively faster measurement speed.

ENHANCED ENERGY-SAVING ANTICOLLISION ALGORITHMS WITH IMPROVING THROUGHPUT FOR RFID SYSTEM

Tag collision algorithm is a key issue for energy saving and throughput with Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) system more popular in sensing infrastructure of covering wider area on a large scale. Exploiting low energy consumption strategy would enable longer operational life of tags and reader with battery energy supply. And improving throughput is required on a large scale to preserve the capability of the correct reception. Therefore, this paper proposes an enhanced anti-collision algorithm called Dynamic Slotted with Muting (DSM), which uses multiple slots within a frame per node in a binary tree and takes tag estimation function to optimize the number of slots, and adds a mute command to put identified tags silence. The performance of the proposed algorithm is analytically provided, and simulation results show that DSM saves more than 40% energy consumptions both at reader and tags, and improves more than 35% throughput compared to the existing algorithms. Thus our algorithm is demonstrated to perform efficient energy savings at reader and tags with throughput improvement.

Adaptive transmission algorithms have been studied to show the trade-off between different specific QoS requirements, transmission rates and distances at the physical layer level and this type of dynamic optimization and reconfiguration leads to the cross-layer design proposal in the paper. Studies from both theoretical simulation and statistical indoor environments experiments are considered as a proof of concept for the proposed architecture.
