Abstract

RFID has been applied in many areas. Since the dense deployment of readers and tags, the collision problem of RFID system becomes a critical issue. In this paper, we introduce a novel probabilistic model to estimate the impact of reader to tag collision based on the information from physical layer. According to the theoretical analysis, our model ensures that more than one tag can be identified by both readers when they communicate with tags. To obtain the bit information, we employ the NI RFID emulator and LabView software. The simulation results show that the probability of miss-identification is lower than 17%.
