Capture-Aware Dense Tag Identification Using RFID Systems in Vehicular Networks.

Passive radio-frequency identification (RFID) systems have been widely applied in different fields, including vehicle access control, industrial production, and logistics tracking, due to their ability to improve work quality and management efficiency at a low cost. However, in an intersection situation where tags are densely distributed with vehicle gathering, the wireless channel becomes extremely complex, and the readers on the roadside may only decode the information from the strongest tag due to the capture effect, resulting in tag misses and considerably reducing the performance of tag identification. Therefore, it is crucial to design an efficient and reliable tag-identification algorithm in order to obtain information from vehicle and cargo tags under adverse traffic conditions, ensuring the successful application of RFID technology. In this paper, we first establish a Nakagami-m distributed channel capture model for RFID systems and provide an expression for the capture probability, where each channel is modeled as any relevant Nakagami-m distribution. Secondly, an advanced capture-aware tag-estimation scheme is proposed. Finally, extensive Monte Carlo simulations show that the proposed algorithm has strong adaptability to circumstances for capturing under-fading channels and outperforms the existing algorithms in terms of complexity and reliability of tag identification.

Analysis of Data Reception in the Communication Layer Applied to an Architecture of Mobile Sensor Networks in Marine Environments

This paper is focused on the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology operating at 125 kHz in a communication layer for a network of mobile and static nodes in marine environments, with a specific focus on the Underwater Internet of Things (UIoT). The analysis is divided into two main sections: characterizing the penetration depth at different frequencies and evaluating the probabilities of data reception between antennas of static nodes and a terrestrial antenna considering the line of sight (LoS) between antennas. The results indicate that the use of RFID technology at 125 kHz allows for data reception with a penetration depth of 0.6116 dB/m, demonstrating its suitability for data communication in marine environments. In the second part of the analysis, we examine the probabilities of data reception between static-node antennas at different heights and a terrestrial antenna at a specific height. Wave samples recorded in Playa Sisal, Yucatan, Mexico, are used for this analysis. The findings show a maximum reception probability of 94.5% between static nodes with an antenna at a height of 0 m and a 100% data reception probability between a static node and the terrestrial antenna when the static-node antennas are optimally positioned at a height of 1 m above sea level. Overall, this paper provides valuable insights into the application of RFID technology in marine environments for the UIoT, considering the minimization of impacts on marine fauna. The results suggest that by adjusting the characteristics of the RFID system, the proposed architecture can be effectively implemented to expand the monitoring area, considering variables both underwater and on the surface of the marine environment.

Prototype of New Reliable Airport Luggage Tracker System

Nowadays, the complaints of air passengers about mishandling of luggage are highly noticeable, where the number of passengers are on the increased. In this respect, several research works have been conducted using different technologies, such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Global Positioning System (GPS), Global System for Mobile Communication (GPS), mobile applications, smart watches and QR code. However, none of them safely and effectively considers reclaiming passengers' belongings from the airport baggage handling carousel without the need for human intervention, which in turn increases the number of mishandled bags.

Anti‐collision algorithm based on slotted random regressive‐style binary search tree in RFID technology

In recent years, the rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology has provided a strong technical support for the technological transformation of the logistics industry. The informatization development of logistics industry increasingly relies on the Internet of Things technology represented by Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. These technologies lead the whole business process to optimize the business process in the direction of accurate, efficient and real-time. In order to solve the problem that the reader cannot identify the label information correctly due to the phenomenon of data collision in the application of RFID technology, this paper proposes an anti-collision algorithm based on Slotted Random Regressive-style Binary Search Tree (SR-RBST). Based on Slotted ALOHA (SA) the method proposed in this paper uses the Regressive-style Binary Search Tree (RBST) to process the RFID labels in the collision time slot. With the same size of tags, the SR-RBST algorithm needs less total time slot and has higher efficiency and shorter identification time, while with the increase of the number of tags, the SR-RBST anti-collision algorithm has more obvious advantages. The SR-RBST algorithm effectively improves the time slot utilization efficiency of the system.

An adaptive frame slotted ALOHA anti‐collision algorithm based on tag grouping

Multi-tag anti-collision is an important problem in radio frequency identification (RFID) application. Solving the problem is of great significance to the RFID technology application and the future internet of things; therefore, an adaptive frame slotted ALOHA anti-collision algorithm based on tag grouping (IGA) is proposed. First, a novel method for estimating the number of tags accurately is proposed. Through theoretical research and the experimental verification, a relationship is obtained between the ratio of the collision time slot in the frame and the average number of tags in each collision slot, which helps us to calculate the number of tags. Second, the method of estimating the number of tags is applied to the IGA algorithm. The reader randomly groups the tags after the number of tags are estimated, and recognises the tags by grouping. In the identification process, the idle time slot is skipped automatically, and the collided tags can be identified with an additional frame until all tags are identified. The simulation results show that the total time slot of the IGA algorithm is relatively small, and the identification efficiency is about 71%, which is 30% better than the the improved RFID anti-collision algorithm and 90% higher than the traditional ALOHA algorithm.

Applications of RFID technology on the study of bees

Bees have the potential to be used as indicators of environmental quality. The parameters typically analyzed in this context include species diversity, colony condition and foraging behavior. Bees explore the area around their nests, whose size and location vary based on the flight ranges and nesting preferences of the respective species. The environment around the nest must contain appropriate resources, which are collected by bees during foraging. Therefore, the internal nest environment is connected to the external environment via foraging. Until early 2000, direct observations and/or video recording of the foraging activity of social bees were the predominant techniques for studying foraging behavior, and paint marks or labels were used to distinguish individuals. Although these techniques are still used, radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology has been used for bee monitoring and can automatically count the inbound and outbound movements of bees from the nest and perform individual recognition. Here, we review the applications of RFID technology in bee research and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of RFID compared with those of other techniques.

Assessing the use of Radio Frequency Identification technologies as an alternative for insurance costs in hospitals.

This research assesses the use of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technologies as an alternative for insurance costs in hospitals. Despite the advantages of RFID, this technology has not been applied in most hospitals due to implementation costs and amortization of RFID. In this paper, we intend to model the total profit of hospitals in three scenarios namely, application of RFID technology in the hospital, without applying RFID technology in the hospital and insuring patients and equipment in the hospital. We analyzed the aforementioned situations over a period of time to find out how they affect the profit of the hospital. Based on this analysis we concluded that if applying RFID technology is costly, it will be feasible for advanced hospitals with more beds. In the scenario of insuring patients and equipment, if insurance organization takes over a small portion of the cost of the mistakes and oversights, insuring patients and equipment will not be feasible for the hospital, and it is better to apply RFID technology Instead. RFID is among the technologies applied to reduce mistakes of the personnel in hospitals. Moreover, applying this technology has led to a decrease in the number of personnel required in hospitals. This study models total profit of hospitals in three aforementioned scenarios. Based on analyzing these models we conclude that if applying RFID technology is costly, it will be feasible for advanced hospitals with more beds.

RFID Technology for Deepwater Drilling and Completions Challenges

This article, written by Special Publications Editor Adam Wilson, contains highlights of paper SPE 181012, “Leveraging RFID Technology for Deepwater Drilling and Completions Challenges,” by Euan Murdoch, SPE, Eddie Valverde, SPE, Rupa Sharma, Crystal Wreden, SPE, Alex Goodwin, and Jonathan Osei-Kuffour, Weatherford, and Kyle Kimmitt, Cornelis Loonstra, Babak Ghaempanah, and Deandre Reagins, Shell, prepared for the 2016 SPE Intelligent Energy International Conference and Exhibition, Aberdeen, 6–8 September. The paper has not been peer reviewed. Deepwater operators continually face technical and environmental challenges to drilling and completing wells safely and efficiently. To address these challenges, the industry has used radio-frequency-identification (RFID) technology to reduce risk, rig time, and nonproductive time and to perform operations that traditional tools cannot. This paper describes criteria for selecting RFID-enabled tools rather than traditional tools, integration of RFID tools with operations, and value-added features enabled by RFID. The complete paper also presents contingency, safety, and risk-assessment factors and case studies. RFID Background RFID is a method of communication using radio-frequency electromagnetic fields. Information is stored within RFID tags and is transferred to a reader when the two are close to each other. There are two types of tags: active tags, which contain their own energy source, and passive tags, which are energized by the reader as they pass by. A typical passive tag used in the tools described in this paper is shown in Fig. 1. This tag contains a transponder circuit and an antenna that receives signals from the reader. The transponder is programmed with a unique identification number and instructions for the reader. The reader contains a receiving antenna and a power source (Fig. 2) that generates an electromagnetic field. The field generated by the antenna powers the tag when it is within range and enables the tag to transmit the stored instructions. Because a passive RFID tag is powered by the reader antenna, it does not require batteries or an internal energy source, which makes the passive tags less costly and smaller than active tags. Receiving antennas can be programmed to respond only to specific tag identification numbers, and any tag passing by the receiver without these numbers will be ignored. Transferring RFID Technology to Deep Water RFID technology has been integrated into drilling and completions applications. One application of RFID technology is for drilling automation and drillpipe identification. RFID tags attached to drillpipe identify individual-joint dimensions, track inspection information, and allow inventory tracking. These tags can be used also to create an automatic pipe tally as drillpipe joints are run in hole past a reader located below the rotary. RFID technology has moved also into cementing. RFID-activated port collars have been designed recently for use in a drilling-with-liner application in the North Sea to cement a 9⅝-in. liner and eliminate the need to open the ports mechanically by means of a long inner string.
