In this paper, we analyze the active RFID systems ISO/IEC 18000-7 and ISO/IEC 18000-4. In order to improve the coverage in sensor networks, which consist active RFID tag, we propose RFID multi-hop relay system using active RFID relay tag. To compare the performance between the existing ISO/IEC 18000-7 system and the proposed RFID multi-hop relay system, we introduce new system efficiency measure and sensitivity-based measure of achieved coverage. Also, we analyze the performance of the proposed system and compare it with that of the existing system through MCL (Minimum Coupling Loss) analysis and SLS (System Level Simulation) analysis.

This paper proposes a novel anti-collision method for the ISO/IEC 18000-6 type B protocol which is the standard protocol of the 900 MHz RFID system. We improve the anti-collision performance by reducing the transmission number of commands and the length of bits required for multi-tag identification in the ISO/IEC 18000-6 type B protocol. Simulation results show that the proposed method improves the multi-tag identification time by 21.7% over the conventional method, irrespective of number of tags.

In this paper, we propose a novel method for improving the tag collection performance in active RFID systems by modifying the tag collection algorithm in the ISO/IEC 18000-7 standard. The proposed method enables to reduce the time slot size by reducing the response message size from the tag and to decrease the number of command messages from the reader throughout the tag collection process. This results in reducing the time required for tag collection and the battery consumption on tags by decreasing the total amount of messages. Via the simulation experiments, we evaluated the performance of the tag collection applied with the proposed method, compared with that of the basic tag collection complying with the standard. The simulation results showed that the proposed method could decrease the total amount of messages between the reader and tags dramatically and reduce the average tag collection time by 19.99% and 16.03% when the reader requested the additional data of 50 bytes and 100 bytes from the tags, respectively.

In this paper, we analyze the active RFID system ISO/IEC 18000-7. In order to apply to USN, which consists active RFID tags and sensor nodes, we propose UWB-based Class 4 active RFID protocol using active RFID relay tag as relay AP. To compare the performance between the existing ISO/IEC 18000-7 system and the proposed system, we introduce sensitivity-based measurement of achieved coverage and system efficiency. Also, we analyze the performance of the proposed system and compare it with that of the existing system through MCL analysis and SLS analysis.

To apply active RFID technology in the various kinds of industry, it needs to quickly transmit a large amount of data. ISO/IEC 18000-7 standard uses the 433.92MHz as single channel system and its transmit rate is just 27.8kbps, that is insufficient for a large amount of data transmission. To solve this problem, we designed a new data transmission protocol using 2.4GHz band. The feature of designed protocol is not only making over 255bytes data messages using the Burst Read UDB but also efficiently transmitting it. To implement this protocol, we use Texas Instruments's SmartRF04 develop kit and CC2500 transceiver as RF module. As an evaluation of 63.75kbytes data transmission, we demonstrate that transmission time of Burst Read UDB has improved as 17.95% faster than that of Read UDB in the ISO/IEC 18000-7.

In recent years, the Internation Standard ISO/IEC 18000-6 is announced and a new scheme of Type C is added to conventional standard. Among the RFID systems the ISO/IEC 18000-6 standard is the most interesting to companies due to its potential market growth. The operating frequency is between 860-960 MHz, and three kinds of RFID system are included in the standard, i.e. type A, B and C. In this paper, we implemented the data frame of type C with baseband coding using VHDL. The data frame is encoded based on Miller code and FM0. We showed the implementation results with waveforms. The data frame was proved that it is properly implemented by the experiment of transmission and receiving operation.

In recent years, RFID has received much attention because of spread usage in industrial applications including factory, material flow, logistics and defense areas. However, there is only CRC-16 for error detection in ISO/IEC 18000-6 Protocols prepared for 860-960 MHz RFID, high error rates are expected in cases of high level of security and noisy envirionment. In this paper, we propose a usage of convolution code as a method for satisfying the high level of security requirement and system error performance.'1'he signal control function is implemented in a microprocessor with RF modulation and the convolutional encoding and Viterbi decoding are implemented in an FPGA chip.'The frame error rates are measured with and without convolution coding under the channel conditions of line-of- sight and non line-of-sight, respectively.

In this paper, we propose a novel tag collection algorithm to improve tag collection performance in active RFID systems. In the proposed algorithm, the reader detects the occurrence of empty slots and collided slots through the identified slot scan process and reduces the time wasted by empty slots and collided slots, resulting in improvement of tag collection performance. To evaluate the performance improvement by the proposed tag collection algorithm via the experiments in a real-world environment, we implemented an active RFID reader and tags. The experimental results with the reader and 60 tags showed that the proposed algorithm could reduce the average tag collection time by 21.7% and improve the average identification throughput by 28.3%, compared with the standard tag collection algorithm in ISO/IEC 18000-7. In addition, the proposed algorithm reduced the average battery consumption on tags by 22.7% in the battery consumption experiment with 20 tags.

This paper proposes an efficient tag identification scheme for ISO/IEC18000-7 standard by dividing the tags into smaller groups. Tag grouping is based on the reader's transmission power. This can reduce the responding tags in the collection round. If the small number of tags exists, we can anticipate the collision probability will decrease. And it makes the identification speed high. A collection round initiated by the reader's collection command. It also proceeds with increasing the power of the reader until all tags are identified. The results showed that 25% of the performance improved.
