A generalized binding framework for the Low Level Reader Protocol (LLRP)

Abstract

This Master of Engineering Thesis describes the design, implementation and testing of an XML binding framework for the RFID Low Level Reader Protocol (LLRP). LLRP is a recently released protocol which standardizes the interface between RFID readers and RFID middleware. The proposed framework serializes wire objects to the schema of the LLRP binary messages and parameters. The framework also validates the produced XML elements against the LLRP data model. The framework includes a data serialization mechanism on the reader's side and allows for easy and efficient data updates as an RFID Network simulator.
