slot. By replacing this command with a Query command, a new round can be started<br />

instead. In [7], the estimate of the number of <strong>tag</strong>s in the field is updated at the end<br />

of each slot as opposed <strong>to</strong> the end of a frame in previous approaches. The probability<br />

estimate of the number of <strong>tag</strong>s replying is updated using a Bayesian approach.<br />
