Abstract

The performance of RFID networks can be optimized by RFID reader scheduling. This paper proposed a novel approach using an improved bat algorithm (IBA), which can optimize RFID networks. The IBA algorithm includes 2 improved mechanisms. In the proposed approach, all RFID readers are scheduled to work in appropriate sequence, which can greatly reduce RFID collisions. Experiments on two different RFID networks have been carried out to evaluate the effectiveness. Simulation results show that the proposed approach using IBA has better optimization precision than control algorithms.
