Abstract

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is a technology which do not need to be established the direct contact but with the optical contact between the system and the objective, identify a specific target with a radio signal. One of the main advantages of RFID is multitarget identification; at the same time, but there is a problem which is called the tag collision. The ALOHA-based probabilistic algorithm had a tag hunger problem, Tag cannot be identified in a limited time, although the Binary search tree algorithm has solved this problem, but also with shortcomings of longer period of recognition, and the large amount of tag communication. This article organized various types of literature reported collision prevention mechanism used in RFID systems and documents provided the latest and more comprehensive MAC protocol herein compared with others and provided a new summary for RFID MAC protocol. A detailed description of different ways solving the reader and tag collision, so as to provide a more convenient and efficient research references for the readers of this article.
