Abstract

RFID reader implemented on a Software Defined Radio (SDR) platform is a desired environment for the ease experimentation and verification of varoius research contributions. It offers several features such as studying separately any part of a RFID reader for further modification and improvements. In the recent years, fruitful attempts for making the basement that facilitates the future researches were published. To begin from the sketch and start prototyping on the given platform, a big variety of information that has to be organized and learned due to comprehensive and complex topic mostly of interdisciplinary nature. On the other side, finding details are important for perceiving the whole functionality of the system and making the required changes. Tutorial-based description in one unique paper is hard to accomplish due to the volume of details. In this paper a heuristic method for filling out all the important and missing parts of the puzzle is given. Moreover, this paper gives a simplified but comprehensive view about making an RFID radio through SDR including their flow graphs, code blocks, and other important procedures with focus on practical and useful details crucial for fast implementation of any new research in the given platform.
