AbstractRadio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems have come out as an attractive solution for object identification by using radio transmission. An RFID system consists of a reading device called a reader, and a number of small identification devices known as tags. RFID is increasingly being used in several applications such as inventory management, object tracking, retail checkout, etc. This research focuses on a moving reader identifying static tags; or, reciprocally, moving tags passing by a static reader to be identified. We propose an algorithm enabling the mobile reader to adjust its speed to reliably identify RFID tags without previous knowledge of the tag distribution. We show that our algorithm results in more than 99% of tags being identified successfully, along with maximizing the average speed of the reader.
