ABSTRACT
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a new, short-range wireless connectivity technology that evolved from a combination of existing contactless identification and interconnection technologies. It was jointly developed by Sony and NXP Semiconductors (formerly Philips).NFC is designed to enable the exchange of various types of information, such as telephone numbers, pictures, MP3 files or digital authorizations between two NFC enabled devices like mobile phones, or between an NFC enabled mobile phone and a compatible RFID chip card or reader that are held close to each other. NFC is intended to be used as an access key to contents and for services such as cashless payment, ticketing and access control.
