Bringing the Functionality of Tag Sampling to Reality for COTS RFID Systems

Tag sampling is required by many promising RFID applications to read only a part of tags instead of all for better time-efficiency. However, the functionality of tag sampling is not actually supported by the COTS RFID devices. This letter proposes the multi-array tag sampling (MTS) scheme, in which the interactions between reader and tags are clearly specified, to bring tag sampling from theoretic...
