A Study on the Reliability Improvement of RFID System

Jung-Ki Ham, Cheong-Jin Lee, Oh-Heung Kwon · Journal of Digital Contents Society · 2006

In recent years, RFID is widely used in industrial applications including factory, material flow, logistics and defense areas. In this paper, The convolutional encoding and viterbi decoding is also implemented to improve the system performance. in an FPGA chip. The used convolution code is constraint length K=3 and rate R=1/2. The length of command frame and response frame is total of 48bits consisting of SOF 8 bits, command 16 bits, CRC 16 bit, and EOF 8 bits. And also the frame error rates are measured under the channel of line-of-sight and non line-of-sight, respectively. The performances are analyzed with FSK modulation only and FSK modulation added with convolutional encoding. These two measured results are compared with that of a RFID system with ASK modulation.
