The application of animal tracking holds significant importance across diverse economic domains, encompassing sectors including livestock husbandry, agricultural practices, and the conservation of wildlife populations. It aims to track and understand animal behavior, movement patterns, and health status. The predominant use of RFID technology is observed within the domains of logistics, localization, and the tracking of goods. Notably, the application of this technology in the field of animal tracking has experienced a significant surge in popularity in recent years. This paper conducts a systematic literature review focused on understanding how RFID technology is being applied in the field of animal tracking. We have conducted a state-of-the-art research regarding animal tracking solutions in the scientific literature and patents. We have analyzed these solutions targeting which animals are being tracked, which problems are addressed, operating frequency, and whether other technologies are combined with RFID for animal tracking purposes. Among the categories of problems addressed, livestock management emerged as the main area, followed by animal tracking and traceability. Mammals, especially cattle, are the most common type of animal monitored. Considering RFID technology, passive UHF tags appeared more often. Moreover, many works also employed cameras and GPS together with RFID. Finally, this work can significantly contribute to this field by systematically presenting a state-of-the-art application of RFID for animal tracking.

RFID Technology for Animal Tracking: A Survey

动物追踪的RFID技术：综述

Backscatter radio is a promising technology for low-cost and low-power Internet-of-Things (IoT) networks. The conventional monostatic backscatter radio is constrained by its limited communication range, which restricts its utility in wide-area applications. An alternative bi-static backscatter radio architecture, characterized by a dis-aggregated illuminator and receiver, can provide enhanced coverage and, thus, can support wide-area applications. In this paper, we analyze the scalability of the bi-static backscatter radio for large-scale wide-area IoT networks consisting of a large number of unsynchronized, receiver-less tags. We introduce the Tag Drop Rate (TDR) as a measure of reliability and develop a theoretical framework to estimate TDR in terms of the network parameters. We show that under certain approximations, a small-scale prototype can emulate a large-scale network. We then use the measurements from experimental prototypes of bi-static backscatter networks (BNs) to refine the theoretical model. Finally, based on the insights derived from the theoretical model and the experimental measurements, we describe a systematic methodology for tuning the network parameters and identifying the physical layer design requirements for the reliable operation of large-scale bi-static BNs. Our analysis shows that even with a modest physical layer requirement of bit error rate (BER) 0.2, 1000 receiver-less tags can be supported with 99.9% reliability. This demonstrates the feasibility of bi-static BNs for large-scale wide-area IoT applications.
