One of the key issues in implementing RFID systems is to design anti-collision protocols for identifying all the tags in the interrogation zone of a RFID reader with the minimum identification delay. In this paper, Furthermore, in designing such protocols, the limited resources in tags and readers in terms of memory and computing capability should be fully taken into consideration. we first investigate two typical RFID anti-collision algorithms, namely RFID Gen2 Q algorithm (accepted as the worldwide standard in industrial domain) and FAFQ algorithm including their drawbacks and propose a new RFID anti-collision algorithm, which can improve the performance of RFID systems in terms of tag identification time considerably. Further, we compared performance of the proposed algorithm with Q algorithm and FAFQ algorithm through computer simulation.
