  Abstract

Generally, RFID systems are composed of one reader and several passive tags, and share the single wireless channel. For this reason, collisions occurwhen more than two tags simultaneously respond to the reader's inquiry. To achieve this problem, many papers, such as QT[8], HCT[10], BSCTTA[2], and QT-BCS[9], have been proposed. In this paper, we propose the tree-based anti-collision algorithm using a bit change sensing unit (TABCS) based on BSCTTA algorithm. The proposed algorithm can identify bits returned from tags through bit change sensing unit, even if multi collisions occur. So, it rapidly generates the unique prefix to indentify each tag, and reduce the total of bits. As the result, the cost of identifying all tag IDs is relatively reduced as compared with existing algorithms. It is verified through simulations that the proposed algorithm surpass other existing algorithms.
