Existing approaches remain limited to time-division operations and fail to read multiple tags simultaneously. In this paper, we introduce QuinID, the first frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) RFID system to achieve fully parallel reading. We innovatively exploit the frequency selectivity of the tag antenna rather than a conventional digital FDMA, bypassing the power and circuitry constraint of RFID tags. Specifically, we delicately design the frequency-selective antenna based on surface acoustic wave (SAW) components to achieve extreme narrow-band response, so that QuinID tags (i.e., QuinTags) operate exclusively within their designated frequency bands. By carefully designing the matching network and canceling various interference, a customized QuinReader communicates simultaneously with multiple QuinTags across distinct bands. QuinID maintains high compatibility with commercial RFID systems and presents a tag cost of less than 10 cents. We implement a 5-band QuinID system and evaluate its performance under various settings. The results demonstrate a fivefold increase in read rate, reaching up to 5000 reads per second.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.03412v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2504.03412v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"quinid-enabling-fdma-based-fully-parallel","repo_url":"https://github.com/wonderfulnx/quinid","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
