Abstract

This letter presents an efficient tag collision arbitration protocol, viz., the Fast Tree Traversal Protocol (FTTP). It estimates the number of tags using maximum likelihood estimation and adjusts the splitting factor to reduce the identification delay. We show that our protocol effectively reduces the identification delay via the performance analysis and simulation results.
