Abstract

The nature of data security vulnerability and location privacy invasion of RFID systems have become a serious problem after hundreds of RFID application systems deployed all over the world. One of the promising solution directions is to provide an efficient authentication scheme with the compliance of international RFID standards such as EPCglobal, ISO18000-1 and ISO18000-6. In this study, we propose a novel authentication scheme for RFID systems with excellent data security properties, robust location privacy preservation and efficient data matching/retrieval mechanism. In addition, our scheme is compatible to EPCglobal Class-1 Generation-2 RFID standards because only simple cryptographic primitives such as pseudo-random number generator and cyclic redundancy check are required to be implemented in RFID tags.
