In this standard, dynamic frame slotted ALOHA is specified to solve the anti-collision problem. Also, the Q-algorithm with a key parameter C is adopted to dynamically adjust the frame sizes. In the paper, we split the C parameter into two parameters to increase the read speed and derive the optimal values of the two parameters through simulations. The results indicate our method outperforms the original Q-algorithm. }, journal = {International Journal of Electronics and Communication Engineering}, volume = {5}, number = {6}, year = {2011}, pages = {779 - 782}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/14783}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/54}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 54, 2011}, }
