摘要

In many radio frequency identification (RFID) applications, the reader identifies the tags in its scope repeatedly. For these applications, many algorithms, such as an adaptive binary splitting algorithm (ABS), a single resolution blocking ABS (SRB), a pair resolution blocking ABS (PRB) and a dynamic blocking ABS (DBA) have been proposed. All these algorithms require the staying tags to reply with their IDs to be recognized by the reader. However, the IDs of the staying tags are stored in the reader in the last identification round. The reader can verify the existence of these tags when identifying them. Thus, we propose an anti-collision algorithm with short reply for RFID tag identification (ACSR). In ACSR, each staying tag emits a short reply to indicate its continued existence. Therefore, the data amount transmitted by staying tags is reduced significantly. The identification rate of ACSR is analyzed in this paper. Finally, simulation and analysis results show that ACSR greatly outperforms ABS, SRB and DBA in terms of the identification rate and average amount of data transmitted by a tag.
