A New Collision Arbitration Algorithm for FM0 Code in RFID Applications

We propose a new collision arbitration algorithm for FM0 code in RFID (radio frequency identification) applications. The proposed collision arbitration algorithm uses a property of FM0 code to build a binary search tree. The proposed collision arbitration algorithm is found to reduce the average number of transmissions by 30% compared with the probabilistic collision arbitration algorithm in ISO-18000 Part 6B.
