Tag Counting and Monitoring in Large-Scale RFID Systems

This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the theoretical foundation and algorithmic tools necessary in the design of efficient tag counting and monitoring algorithms in emerging RFID systems. The book delivers an in-depth analysis on the following problems ranging from theoretical modeling and analysis, to practical algorithm design and optimization: Stability analysis of the frame slotted Aloha protocol, the de facto standard in RFID tag counting and identification; Tag population estimation in dynamic RFID systems; Missing tag event detection in the presence of unexpected tags; Missing tag event detection in multi-group multi-region RFID systems. The target readers are researchers and advanced-level engineering students interested in acquiring in-depth knowledge on the topic and on RFID systems and their applications.

Provides foundations for the design of efficient tag management algorithms in practical large-scale RFID systems Introduces state-of-the-art applications of RFID technology in practical scenarios of IoT by counting dynamic tag population and detecting missing tags Presents a palette of tools which can be adapted for application in the control and optimization of RFID systems
