Abstract:
a transmission control scheme plays an important role in determining a protocol’s performance. Protocol performance can be measured based on a variety of factors. In this paper we compared four protocols that are compatible with EPC C1G2 standard using four units of performance, namely System Efficiency, Time System Efficiency, Total Number of Slots and Total Time.The results show not only the strengths and weaknesses of the protocols measured, but also highlight the importance of evaluating all relevant performance factors when comparing protocols as opposed to weighing performance using one or two units.
