RFID based systems and their perceptive: A review of the literature and future trends

Abstract

Internet of Things has endorsed a huge success in different smart applications of ubiquitous computing and Wireless Sensor Network’s other applications. Due to IoT, the demand of many technologies like Radio Frequency Identification, Bluetooth etc. has raised in many fields and RFID gained a great interest of researchers. In this paper, we provide a general review of 264 academic articles that were published on RFID based systems to investigate the researchers’ interest in RFID’s different areas during 2006-2019. We categorize the research published in these journals into four main groups: RFID technology, RFID based localization, RFID applications, and others, like RFID tags collision, RFID security & privacy. The major focus of the research to provide helpful bits of knowledge to the researchers who want to work on RFID based systems in future. It is trusted that the survey will be a decent resource for any individual working in this research domain, and will encourage to explore this field in depth. At last, investigations, comparative analysis, suggestions and future trends for RFID based systems are also discussed in detail.
