Smart Card meets ConnectivityNew Opportunities in Mobile Business with NFC Technology

Smart Card Alliance2005 Fall Annual Conference Martin Bührlen

2© 2005 NFC Forum, Inc.

Agenda

• NFC Technology• Use Cases• Implications for the Smart Card Community• Become part of it


Agenda



Goals of NFC

• Easy-to-use P2P connectivity

• Contactless Smart Card Reader

• Emulation of Contactless Smart Card

• Short Range only – conscious usage

• Interoperability with existing card standards

• Ubiquitous infrastructure


NFC Technology Overview

• Wireless short-range communication technology – Operates in the 13.56 MHz RF band– Operating distance typical 4 inches– Data exchange rates: 106, 212, 424 kbit/s– Standardized in ISO/IEC

• Compatible with existing E-payment and ID infrastructures– Field proven contactless ISO 14443 and FeliCa smart

cards


Agenda



Everyone has a mobile phone …… it lets you talk everywhere

• and at home • visiting a leisure park

• while shopping• at the office

• in the underground


With NFC technology,your phone can do much more…

... open gates ... download information or link to the web

... share music, pictures, contact info


Main NFC Application Categories

Card Emulation

Peer-to-Peer Data Transfer

Reader Mode Information Access

SECURE

battery-less smart object


Card Emulation

for Mobile Ticketing and Payment

• Public Transportation

• Event Tickets• Customer loyalty and

bonus programs• Flexible Digital Rights

Management• Payment schemes

• Access control


Peer-to-Peer Communication

for Data Transfer

• Synchronize calendar

• Share/transfer content

• Easy network set-up and configuration (Bluetooth, WLAN)

• New possibilities for gaming


Reader/Writer Mode

for Information Access

• A smart card reader in everybody’s pocket

• Virtual bookmarks: Smart Objects deliver product, service, event information

• Scale up volume of value-added services traffic

• Device personalization and configuration


And the Magic begins...

... by combining all the functions• At the bus stop, a poster invites you to download a

movie trailer.

• You touch the poster with your mobile phone and the movie’s website appears. (reader/writer)

• While you wait for the bus, you enjoy the trailer.

• You book seats for you and a friend. The tickets come over-the-air to your phone.

• You transfer one of the tickets to your friend’s phone. (peer-to-peer)

• You enter the movie theater by touching the terminal at the entrance gate. (card emulation)


Agenda



Mobile Devices have Functionality of Smart Cards

• Lots of devices will have functionality of a smart card

• In many cases, real smart card ICs will serve as ‘secure element’ in these devices

• Terminals will not be able to tell the difference between a ‘real’ card and a mobile phone


Smart Card Reader Terminals Everywhere

• Many devices will be able to read contactless smart cards

• Mobile phones, TV remote controls, PDAs, Computer peripherals, …

• Important issues:– Direct consumer expectations

by indicating service availability at a terminal

– Interoperability of services (suitability for screen sizes, …)

– Common data formats


New Service Opportunities

• New opportunities for services and interaction with consumers

• Consumers will want to do more with their cards – Loyalty cards for services in the store and

at home– Payment cards for downtown shopping,

on-line stores, mobile services, home shopping and authorization for on-line banking

• Service Providers will be able to utilize ubiquitous infrastructure– Same service through PC, game console

and mobile phone– Device-independent credentials for

authentication– Transfer of rights/credentials between

devices


Agenda



NFC Forum

A global Special Interest Group (SIG)

• Non-profit organization, established to advance adoption of NFC in consumer electronics, mobile devices, and PCs

• Achieve interoperability between NFC-enabled devices and services through– Development of Specifications– Compliance Testing and Device Certification– Reference Designs

• Drive discussion on business models and services

• Develop roadmap for future development of NFC


NFC Forum Members


NFC is Here

• ISO standards available• NFC chips available• NFC-enabled devices

available– Phones– USB dongle– SD-cards– …
