摘要： A transaction card may monitor an amount of electric current induced in a first near-field communication (NFC) component of a transaction card. Electric current may be induced in the first NFC component when the first NFC component is within an electromagnetic field generated by a second NFC component of a transaction terminal. The transaction card may dynamically activate one or more output components associated with the transaction card based on the amount of electric current induced in the first NFC component. The one or more output components may indicate whether the transaction card can communicate with the transaction terminal. The transaction card may perform an action related to completing a transaction after determining that the amount of electric current induced in the NFC component satisfies a first threshold. The first threshold may indicate that the transaction card can communicate with the transaction terminal.

摘要： First and second parts of an optical component may be spatially separated and not electrically connected. A passive side may contain an optical element. An active side may contain a light-emitting device. To detect damage to the optical element, passive side circuitry that is associated with the optical element may monitor a fail-safe resistor on the optical element for changes in resistance. The circuitry may use a passive side near-field communications antenna to transmit information such as information on the fail-safe resistor to active side circuitry that is associated with the light-emitting device using near-field communications. The active side circuitry can receive the transmitted information using an active side near-field communications antenna and can adjust the light-emitting device accordingly. The active side circuitry can also monitor the active side near-field communications antenna to detect when the passive side and active side antennas have been moved apart.

摘要： There is described a method of determining an initial transmission phase offset in an NFC device configured to operate in NFC card mode only, wherein the NFC device comprises an NFC chip and a matching circuit. The method comprises: determining an initial RF matching resonance frequency of the NFC device utilizing an internal oscillator of the NFC chip; reading correction data from a non-volatile memory of the NFC chip, the correction data being indicative of a frequency offset of the internal oscillator relative to a nominal oscillator frequency; determining a corrected RF matching resonance frequency of the NFC device based on the initial RF matching resonance frequency and the correction data; and determining the initial transmission phase offset based on the corrected RF matching resonance frequency. Furthermore, a device and a method of manufacturing an NFC device are described.

摘要： A near-field communication-based tire pressure monitoring system, a sensor, a tire, and a vehicle. The tire pressure monitoring system comprises a server (101), a terminal (102) supporting near-field communication, and a tire pressure monitoring sensor (103) supporting near-field communication. The terminal (102) obtains from the server (101) update information for updating the tire pressure monitoring sensor (103), and then the update information is transmitted to the tire pressure monitoring sensor (103) by establishing a near-field communication connection between the terminal (102) and the server (101), so that the tire pressure monitoring sensor (103) realizes information reconfiguration or programming process. The terminal (102) is connected to the tire pressure monitoring sensor (103) by means of near-field communication, and compared with wireless communication, the near-field communication avoids the interference of irrelevant signals, guaranteeing the normal communication process. Since the interference of irrelevant signals is avoided, hang-up prevention is encrypted in the near-field communication process without additionally increasing a processing packet, and the cost is reduced.

摘要： A stationary communication unit is adapted to be mounted to a headwall of a healthcare facility and enable wireless communication between a patient support apparatus and a nurse call system. The unit also performs one or more additional functions, such as, but not limited to: determining when a healthcare worker enters/exits the room; determining when the patient support apparatus exits/enters the room; storing/retrieving medical device data associated with a patient; directing medical device data to one or more displays in the room; auto-updating, auto-retrieving, and/or auto-displaying data upon healthcare worker entry into the room; auto-muting room sounds during nurse-patient communication; and auto-directing a healthcare worker's electronic device to data associated with the patient in that room. In alternative embodiments, one or more of these additional functions are incorporated into a patient support apparatus.

摘要： An autonomous drop cart processing system is described. The system is configured to communicably couple with a drop cart that includes an array of cashbox data readers configured to interface with cashbox data transmitters associated with cashboxes inserted into compartments of the drop cart. As a result of this construction, the autonomous drop cart processing system can remove contents of each cashbox on the drop cart without needing to remove the cashbox from the drop cart in order to read the data from the cashbox data transmitter.

摘要： A wireless communication system may include an electronic device having an antenna element. The antenna element may convey radio-frequency signals greater than 10 GHz across a dielectric housing wall. A dielectric matching structure may be interposed between the antenna element and the dielectric housing wall. The wireless communication system may include external equipment having an antenna element communicatively coupled to the electronic device antenna element to convey firmware testing, debugging, restore, and/or other data via a near-field wireless communication link. The external equipment may be configured to receive the electronic device at an opening. A dielectric matching structure may be provided at the external equipment between the dielectric housing wall and the external equipment antenna element. The interior surface of the dielectric housing wall may have planar, convex, or concave portions.

摘要： An electronic apparatus includes a touch panel for electrically detecting an input operation, an antenna for near-field communication having a communicable area that overlaps at least a part of a detection area of the touch panel, a memory storing instructions, and a processor that implements the instructions to reduce a detection sensitivity in a first detection area overlapping with the communicable area in the touch panel when a near-field communication is in progress by the antenna for near-field communication or when a near-field communication is possible by the antenna for near-field communication.
