For the implementation of a RFID system, an anti-collision algorithm is required to identify multiple tags within the range of a RFID Reader. There are two methods of anti-collision algorithms for the identification of multiple tags, conclusive algorithms based on tree and stochastic algorithms based on slotted ALOHA. In this paper, we propose a Dynamic Framed Slotted ALOHA-Slot Congestion(DFSA-SC) Algorithm. The proposed algorithm improves the efficiency of collision resolution. The performance of the proposed DFSA-SC algorithm is showed by simulation. The identification time of the proposed algorithm is shorter than that of the existing DFSA algorithm. Furthermore, when the bit duplication of the tagID is higher, the proposed algorithm is more efficient than Query Tree algorithm.

차세대 이동 통신은 음성만이 아닌 멀티미디어 서비스 지원이 필수적이다. 그 중에서도 CLSP(Channel Load Sensing Protocol)에 의한 CDMA ALOHA 방식은 기지국에 있는 허브(HUB)에서 채널의 부하를 센싱하여 일정 문턱 값($\alpha$) 이상의 패킷이 기지국에 수신될 경우 모든 단말기에 접속 불가 명령을 송신함으로써 기존의 ALOHA 방식보다 처리효율을 높였다. 그러나 기존에 고정된 문턱 값은 가변적인 트리픽 부하에 따라서 처리율도 가변적으로 변함으로써 최상의 처리율을 얻지 못했다. 본 논문은 대역확산 Slotted ALOHA 네트워크의 처리율을 높이기 위해서 매 슬롯마다 허브에서 계산되어진 패킷 수를 이용하여 다음 슬롯에 최상의 처리율을 얻을 수 있도록 패킷 문턱 값($\alpha$)을 설정해 주는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한 음성과 데이터 트래픽이 혼합된 멀티미디어 트래픽이 기지국에 수신될 때, 제안된 알고리즘을 사용하여 실시간 트래픽인 음성 트래픽에 따라 데이터 문턱 값(${\gamma}$)을 선택함으로써 실시간 트래픽에 대한 처리율을 향상시켰다.

Slotted ALOHA(S-ALOHA) is widely used in local wireless network. We analyze the performance of contention-based model in wireless LAN using S-ALOHA protocol. We analyze the performance of binary exponential backoff (BEB) algorithm under the slotted ALOHA protocol: whenever a node's message which tries to reserve a channel is involved in a collision for the ith time, it chooses one of the next $2^i$ frames with equal probability and attempts the reservation again. We derive the expected access delay and throughput which is defined as the expected number of messages that reserve a channel in a frame. A simulation study is performed to verify our method.

Slotted-ALOHA and Binary-tree method are researched for the anti-collision for RFID system. However, it is required of the rapid recognition time for all tags and the reduction of the system complexity. In this paper. the hybrid anti-collision method is proposed to solve the problems. The RFID reader with the hybrid anti-collision method groups the tags with the number which makes the maximum system throughput, then it reads each group by slotted-ALOHA method. By the computer simulation results, it is found that the hybrid method improves the tag identification time and the system throughput together with the comparison to other anti-collision methods. Therefore, the proposed hybrid anti-collision method will enhance the RFID system performance.

In RFID system one of the problems that we must solve is to devise a good anti-collision algorithm to improve the efficiency of tag identification which is usually low because of tag collision. Among the existing RFID anti-collision algorithms, Framed Slotted ALOHA algorithm though simple, has a disadvantage that the number of slots used to identify the tags increases exponentially as the number of tags does. In the paper, we propose a new anti-collision algorithm called Partial-Response Framed Slotted ALOHA(PRFSA) which restricts the number of responding tags by dividing the tags into a number of groups when there are large number of tags and changes the frame size when there are small tags. Since the proposed algorithm keeps the frame size and the number of responding tags in such a way that can increase slot utilization, the algorithm shows superior performance to the existing ones. The simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm improves the slot efficiency by 85～100% compared to the existing algorithm.

Most game-theoretic works of Aloha have emphasized investigating Nash equilibria according to the system state represented by the number of network users and their decisions. In contrast, we focus on the possible change of nodes' utility state represented by delay constraint and decreasing utility over time. These foregone changes of nodes' state are more likely to instigate selfish behaviors in networking environments. For such environment, in this paper, we propose a repeated Bayesian slotted Aloha game model to analyze the selfish behavior of impatient users. We prove the existence of Nash equilibrium mathematically and empirically. The proposed model enables any type of transmission probability sequence to achieve Nash equilibrium without degrading its optimal throughput. Those Nash equilibria can be used as a solution concept to thwart the selfish behaviors of nodes and ensure the system stability.

In a bursty user traffic mode, ALOHA random multiple access protocol achieves higher performance than any conventional fixed assignment technique. One of central problems in slotted ALOHA is synchronization. Because of the long propagation delay in satellite mobile communication, packet may be spilt over into adjacent slots and thus guard time may be included between packet intervals. In conventional ALOHA channels, simultaneous transmission by two or more users results in a collision : the unsuccessful packets have to be retransmitted according to some retransmission algorithm. However, in a radio environment, users are often at different distances from the receiver : therefore, their received signals have substantially different power levels. The packet arriving with the highest energy now has a good chance of being detected accurately. Similarly, in some spread-spectrum random access systems, the earliest arriving packet dominates later arriving packets and thus captures the channel. In this paper slotted ALOHA channel with non zero guard time and capture probability is studied. Using the Markovian model, the performance of slotted ALOHA with guard time and capture effects is derived and compared with that of the conventional ALOHA via numerical analysis.

Since the decentralized structure and the blindness of a large-scale wireless network make it difficult to collect the real-time channel state or other information from random distributed relays, a fundamental question is whether it is feasible to perform the relay selection without this knowledge. In this paper, a Slotted ALOHA based Greedy Relay Selection (SAGRS) scheme is presented. The proposed scheme allows the relays satisfying the user's minimum transmission request to compete for selection by randomly accessing the channel through the slotted ALOHA protocol without the need for the information collection procedure. Moreover, a greedy selection mechanism is introduced with which a user can wait for an even better relay when a suitable one is successfully stored. The optimal access probability of a relay is determined through the utilization of the available relay region, a geographical region consisting of all the relays that satisfy the minimum transmission demand of the user. The average number of the selection slots and the failure probability of the scheme are analyzed in this paper. By simulations, the validation and the effectiveness of the SAGRS scheme are confirmed. With a balance between the selection slots and the instantaneous rate of the selected relay, the proposed scheme outperforms other random access selection schemes.

This paper is to improve an identification ratio of tags by analyzing Slotted ALOHA, Dynamic Slotted ALOHA, Binary-tree and Query-tree and shortening the tag identification time in mobile RFID. Also, it enables the stable information transmission of tags by saving backscattering power of tags through shortening of identification time. As a result, this increases the available time of the battery and accessibility to a RFID service. For this, we proposed the energy-efficient tag anti-collision protocol for mobile RFID. The proposed scheme shows advanced result in identification time and collision counts. This scheme may be the first attempt for the mobile anti-collision.
