A RFID Mixed Coding Scheme Based on Huffman Algorithm
Jiang Jian, Guoqiong Liao, Wang Hao, Wan Qizhi · 2011
In RFID application systems with multiple packaging layers, labeling packaging relationship of objects in different packaging layers by encoding methods is a important technology field. Prefix-based labeling scheme is a method by which the packaging relationship of objects amounts to testing whether one object is an prefix of the other, whereas the region numbering scheme is a method by which an ancestor query amount to an interval containment test on the labels. This paper first presents a mixed-encoding scheme based on Huffman algorithm, then propose a variant of this encoding scheme in which new "virtual nodes" are involved in order to improve the stability of encoding. Our experiments prove that the mixed-based encoding scheme is effective due to the enhancement of update performance and query efficiency.
