Anticollision

The SRIX4K provides an anticollision mechanism that searches for the Chip_ID of each

device that is present in the reader field range. When known, the Chip_ID is used to select

an SRIX4K individually, and access its memory. The anticollision sequence is managed by

the reader through a set of commands described in Section 5: SRIX4K operation:

●

INITIATE()

●

PCALL16()

●

SLOT_MARKER().

The reader is the master of the communication with one or more SRIX4K device(s). It

initiates the tag communication activity by issuing an INITIATE(), PCALL16() or

SLOT_MARKER() command to prompt the SRIX4K to answer. During the anticollision

sequence, it might happen that two or more SRIX4K devices respond simultaneously, so

causing a collision. The command set allows the reader to handle the sequence, to separate

SRIX4K transmissions into different time slots. Once the anticollision sequence has

completed, SRIX4K communication is fully under the control of the reader, allowing only one

SRIX4K to transmit at a time.

The Anticollision scheme is based on the definition of time slots during which the SRIX4K

devices are invited to answer with minimum identification data: the Chip_ID. The number of

slots is fixed at 16 for the PCALL16() command. For the INITIATE() command, there is no

slot and the SRIX4K answers after the command is issued. SRIX4K devices are allowed to

answer only once during the anticollision sequence. Consequently, even if there are several

SRIX4K devices present in the reader field, there will probably be a slot in which only one

SRIX4K answers, allowing the reader to capture its Chip_ID. Using the Chip_ID, the reader

can then establish a communication channel with the identified SRIX4K. The purpose of the

anticollision sequence is to allow the reader to select one SRIX4K at a time.

The SRIX4K is given an 8-bit Chip_ID value used by the reader to select only one among up

to 256 tags present within its field range. The Chip_ID is initialized with a random value

during the READY state, or after an INITIATE() command in the INVENTORY state.

The four least significant bits (b

0 to b3) of the Chip_ID are also known as the

CHIP_SLOT_NUMBER. This 4-bit value is used by the PCALL16() and SLOT_MARKER()

commands during the anticollision sequence in the INVENTORY state.

Figure 20.

SRIX4K Chip_ID description

Each time the SRIX4K receives a PCALL16() command, the CHIP_SLOT_NUMBER is

given a new 4-bit random value. If the new value is 0000b, the SRIX4K returns its whole 8-bit

Chip_ID in its answer to the PCALL16() command. The PCALL16() command is also used

to define the slot number 0 of the anticollision sequence. When the SRIX4K receives the

SLOT_MARKER(SN) command, it compares its CHIP_SLOT_NUMBER with the

SLOT_NUMBER parameter (SN). If they match, the SRIX4K returns its Chip_ID as a

response to the command. If they do not, the SRIX4K does not answer. The

SLOT_MARKER(SN) command is used to define all the anticollision slot numbers from 1 to

15.
