Capture-aware bit-detecting M-ary tree protocol for RFID tag identification by Lijuan ZHANG, Mingqiu FAN, Lei LEI, Yong WANG, Daishu YUAN

“…In passive radio frequency identification (RFID) systems, the capture effect may occur that the reader is possible to successfully decode the strongest signal when multiple tags reply simultaneously.In this situation, the weaker signals will be covered resulting in a tag hidden problem which greatly affects the system performance.To solve the problem, a bit-detecting M-ary tree (BMT) protocol was proposed.First, a bit-detecting tag number estimation method was proposed to estimate the number of tags and group them with a few slots.Next, an M-ary tree protocol was developed to eliminate all the idle slots and identify tags quickly.At the same time, a hash muting strategy was given to mute the identified tags and label the hidden ones with small communication cost.Both theoretic analysis and simulation results demonstrate that BMT can effectively reduce the identification delay by at least 15%.…”

Blockchain-based distributed EHR fine-grained traceability scheme by Zuobin YING, Yuanping SI, Jianfeng MA, Ximeng LIU

“…Aiming at the key management of electronic health records (EHR) in a distributed system and user identity tracing issues, a distributed EHR fine-grained traceability scheme based on blockchain was proposed.Combining chameleon hash and zero-knowledge proof technology, the registration of nodes on the blockchain and the generation of identity certificates were realized, and the traceability of malicious users on the blockchain was realized.Besides, given the single point of failure problem of key management, the attribute-based encryption scheme of distributed ciphertext strategy was designed to achieve secure and fine-grained data access control, and multiple decryption agency blockchain nodes were set up to jointly distribute the attribute private keys of user nodes.The security analysis shows that the traceable distributed key generation attribute-based encryption algorithm based on the blockchain is adaptively secure under the random oracle model, and through experiments, the feasibility and practicability of the proposed scheme are shown.…”
