A Novel RFID Reader System Framework based on Peer-to-Peer Network

With the development of Internet of Things (IOT), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a hot topic in recent years. However, the traditional RFID reader system has some drawbacks, such as the effective reading distance of the reader is very small, and the reading speed of the reader is very slow. In this paper, we propose a novel RFID reader system framework, which is based on Peer-to-Peer (P2P) network. P2P overlay network is distributed system in nature, without any hierarchical organization or centralized control. In our proposed system, every reader is a peer in P2P network. The advantages of the proposed RFID reader system based on P2P are: 1) extend the reading distance; 2) decrease the reading collision; and 3) improve the reading speed.
