Comparison of Transmission Schemes for Framed ALOHA Based RFID Protocols
Overview The performance of RFID anti-collision protocols that are based on framed ALOHA depends on a transmission scheme that controls access to the shared channel. This paper outlines the characteristics of the RFID domain that impact the performance of such transmission schemes and compares four different transmission strategies. A novel technique introduced in this paper that recursively estimates the backlog on a slot-by-slot basis exhibits a superior performance in the simulations. The results also illustrate that the implementation of the Q algorithm proposed in this paper only performs well, if the frame size changes are restricted to incremental updates.
