Abstract: A method of wireless communication includes transmitting frames from a transponder to a reader and synchronizing between a reader carrier frequency and an active load modulation (ALM) carrier frequency within each transmitted frame. Each transmitted frame includes ALM carrier bursts generated from subcarrier modulation by binary phase shift keying (BPSK) data encoding and producing signal oscillations at a transponder antenna after each ALM carrier burst generation, The synchronizing occurs at each phase change of the data encoding when no burst is generated during a half period of the subcarrier preceding the phase change and a half period of the subcarrier following this phase change. The transponder antenna has a moderate quality factor sufficient to naturally damp the signal oscillations so that the synchronizing is performed without performing any controlled signal oscillations damping.

Abstract: A reader is adapted to wirelessly exchanging information with a wireless apparatus. The reader includes a signal generator configured to generate a modulation signal. An emitter/receptor stage is configured to be driven by the modulation signal. A switched-mode power supply is configured to power the emitter/receptor stage. The switched-mode power supply includes a power switch controlled in function of the modulation signal.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a modified NFC framing is used by a reader and selected devices during at least a part of the communication between the reader and the selected devices. The reader and the selected devices store modification rules for modifying the frames. Devices not storing those modification rules will discard the received modified frames.

Abstract: A method for managing a signal transmission emitted by a wireless transponder to a reader is provided in which the signal transmission uses an active load modulation and includes transmitted bursts separated by pause periods. Each transmitted burst includes transmitted pulses. The method includes performing an active damping operation at the end of the transmitted bursts in the beginning of the pause periods, and the active damping operation includes transmitting a number of additional pulses having a phase opposite to the phase of the transmitted pulses. The transmitted pulses power, the additional pulses power, and the number of additional pulses are controlled based on a distance between the reader and the wireless transponder and on reference values of the transmitted pulses power, the additional pulses power, and the number respectively associated with reference distances.

Abstract: A near-field communication circuit of a first NFC device alternates, in low power mode, between: first phases of emission of field bursts and second phases spanning an entire duration separating two successive first phases. Each second phase includes a field detector enabling phase. In one implementation, the field detector enabling phase extends all along a duration of the second phase. In an alternate implementation, the field detector enabling phase is interrupted by field detector disabling phases. Each field detector disabling phase has a duration shorter than a minimum duration of each first phase.

Abstract: A method for decoding a data stream carried by a modulated signal includes receiving the modulated signal. The modulated signal is modulated according to a protocol belonging to a group of protocols including at least three protocols. The method further includes extracting a clock signal from the received modulated signal, detecting the protocol, and decoding the data stream according to the detected protocol using the extracted clock signal.

Abstract: A near field communication (NFC) method includes activating an NFC device second device in response to a first electromagnetic field generated by a nearby NFC device. The NFC device generates a second electromagnetic field after being activated. The first NFC device can detect the second electromagnetic field and initiate a near field communication process.
