Accelerating RFID Tag Counting for Low-Latency and High-Reliability Applications

Nowadays, radio frequency identification (RFID) systems are extensively used in many applications, such as warehouse management, inventory tracking, sensing, or localization. The usage of passive RFID tags allows for low maintenance, thus reducing complexity and cost. However, in scenarios with a la...
