What is NFC
NFC stands for Near Field
Communication. It is a short-range radio technology that enables communication
between devices that either touch or are momentarily held close together.
‒ NFC is an open-platform technology
that is being standardised in the NFC Forum.
‒ NFC is based on and extends on RFID.
It operates on 13.56 MHz frequency.
‒ The NFC communication range is up to
10 cm. However, for the best user experience with Nokia phones it is
recommended that the devices touch each other.
‒ The NFC standard supports different
data transmission rates such as 106 kBps, 212 kBps, and 424 kBps.
