RFID(Radio Frequency IDentification)는 사물 인식을 위한 시스템으로 유통 물류, 의료 보건, 항공 항만 분야 등으로 사용이 확대되고 있다. RFID 시스템은 비접촉식 시스템 환경이고, 동시에 다수의 태그가 인식되므로 태그 인증을 위한 처리 시간의 단축이 중요하다. 그러나 현재까지의 RFID 시스템에 대한 연구는 태그 인증 과정의 보안 취약점 향상을 위한 것이 대부분이었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 태그 인증 과정에서 보안에도 안전하고 태그 인증 처리시간의 감소를 위한 효율적인 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문의 제안 기법은 RFID 시스템의 구성요소 중 하나인 데이터베이스에서 태그 ID 검색을 위해 식별 비트를 사용하여 분류된 해당 ID만 검색함으로써 태그 ID 검색 시간을 단축한다. 결과적으로 본 논문의 제안 기법은 데이터베이스의 처리량 및 처리 시간을 감소시켜 태그 ID 인증을 위한 처리시간을 단축하고, 수동형 태그의 에너지 활용도를 향상시키는 것에 의해, RFID 시스템의 성능 향상을 가져온다.

RFID technologies have attracted a lot of attention in recent years because of their cost/time-effectiveness in large-scale logistics, supply chain management (SCM) and other various potential applications. One of the most important issues of the RFID-based systems is how quickly tags can be identified. Tag collision arbitration plays a more critical role in determining the system performance especially for passive tag-based ones where tag collisions are dealt with rather than prevented. We present a novel tag collision arbitration protocol called Optimum Frame-Slotted Aloha (OFSA). The protocol has been designed to achieve time-optimal efficiency in tag identification through an analytic study of tag identification delay and tag number estimation. Results from our analysis and extensive simulations demonstrate that OFSA outperforms other collision arbitration protocols. Also, unlike most prior anti-collision protocols, it does not require any modification to the current standards and architectures facilitating the rollout of RFID systems.

Personal identification is essential for the automatic measurement of biosignal information in home healthcare systems. Personal identification is usually achieved with passive radio frequency identification (RFID), which does little more than store a unique identification number. However, passive RFID is not ideal for automatic identification. We present a user identification system based on radio signal strength indication (RSSI) using ZigBee for active RFID tags. Personal identification is achieved by finding the largest RSSI value from aggregated beacon messages that are periodically transmitted by active RFID tags carried by users. Obtaining reliable person!'.! identification without restricting the orientation requires a certain distance between the closest active RFID tag from the ZED and the second closest tag. The results show that the closest active RFID tag from the ZED and the second closest tag must be at least 70 cm apart to achieve reliable personal identification.

This paper proposes a novel anti-collision protocol for large-scale RFID tags identification, named Bi-response Collision Tree Protocol (BCT). In BCT, two group of tags answer the reader's same query in two response-cycles respectively and independently according to the bi-response pattern. BCT improves the RFID tag identification performance significantly by decreasing the query cycles and the bits transmitted by the reader and tags during the identification. Computation and simulation results indicate that BCT improves the RFID tag identification performance effectively, e.g. the tag identification speed is improved more than 13.0%, 16.9%, and 22.9% compared to that of Collision Tree Protocol (CT), M-ary Collision Tree Protocol (MCT), and Dual Prefix Probe Scheme (DPPS) respectively when tags IDs are distributed uniformly.

We are moving into the era of ubiquitous computing. Ubiquitous Sensor Network (USN) is a base of such computing paradigm, where recognizing the identification and the position of objects is important. For the object identification, RFID tags are commonly used. For the object positioning, use of sensors such as laser and ultrasonic scanners is popular. Recently, there have been a few attempts to apply RFID technology in robot localization by replacing the sensors with RFID readers to achieve simpler and unified USN settings. However, RFID does not provide enough sensing accuracy for some USN applications such as robot navigation, mainly because of its inaccuracy in distance measurements. In this paper, we describe our approach on achieving accurate navigation using RFID. We solely rely on RFID mechanism for the localization by providing coordinate information through RFID tag installed floors. With the accurate positional information stored in the RFID tag, we complement coordinate errors accumulated during the wheel based robot navigation. We especially focus on how to distribute RFID tags (tag pattern) and how many to place (tag granularity) on the RFID tag-floor. To determine efficient tag granularities and tag patterns, we developed a simulation program. We define the error in navigation and use it to compare the effectiveness of the navigation. We analyze the simulation results to determine the efficient granularities and tag arrangement patterns that can improve the effectiveness of RFID navigation in general.

본 논문에서는 효율적인 식별 기능을 갖는 위조 불가 RFID 가변 정보화 방식을 제안한다. RFID 태그의 프라이버시 보호를 위해 제안된 대부분의 기존 방식들은 태그의 E를 식별하기 위해 모든 태그에 대한 정보를 가지고 식별 과정을 수행해야 하는 비효율성을 가지고 있다. 또한 서버의 정보가 공격자에게 노출될 경우 태그의 위조도 가능하다는 문제가 있다. 본 논문에서는 2번의 지수 연산만으로 해당 태그의 ID를 식별할 수 있고, 서버의 태그에 대한 정보 노출에도 태그에 대한 위조가 불가능한 안전한 방식을 제안한다.

In this paper, we compare the accuracy of most representative radio frequency identification (RFID) tag estimation functions in the context of minimizing RFID tag identification delay. Before the comparisons, we first evaluate the accuracy of Schoute's estimation function, which has been widely adopted in many RFID tag identification processes, and show that its accuracy actually depends on the number of tags to be identified and frame size L used for dynamic frame slotted Aloha cycles. Through computer simulations, we show how the accuracy of estimation functions is related to the actual tag read performance in terms of identification delay.

최근 유비쿼터스 환경 구축의 가장 핵심은 센서 네트워크와 RFID 시스템이다. 이 중 RFID 시스템은 태그의 전자정보를 RF 신호를 이용하여 리더에게 전송한다. RFID 시스템은 다중 태그의 존재로 인해 충돌이 발생하고 태그 인식 성능이 저하된다. 그래서 태그 충돌을 중재할 수 있는 방법이 필요하다. 본 논문은 태그 간 충돌을 줄이며 좀 더 빠른 태그 인식이 가능한 하이브리드 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 방법은 트리기반 알고리즘의 장점인 확실성을 기반으로 동작하며 충돌을 줄이기 위해 태그 아이디를 이용하여 전송 타임 슬롯을 결정한다. 시뮬레이션을 통한 성능평가에서 다른 트리기반의 알고리즘과 다른 하이브리드 알고리즘에 비하여 충돌 횟수와 쿼리 수에서 높은 성능을 가진다는 것을 보여준다.

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a common term for technologies using micro chips that are able to communicate over short-range radio and that can be used for identifying physical objects. RFID technology already has several application areas and more are being envisioned all the time. While it has the potential of becoming a really ubiquitous part of the information society over time, there are many security and privacy concerns related to RFID that need to be solved. This paper proposes a method which could protect private information and ensure RFID's identification effectively storing face feature information on RFID tag. This method improved linear discriminant analysis has reduced the dimension of feature information which has large size of data. Therefore, face feature information can be stored in small memory field of RFID tag. The proposed algorithm in comparison with other previous methods shows better stability and elevated detection rate and also can be applied to the entrance control management system, digital identification card and others.
