2. What is NFC
• NFC is a short-range wireless technology.
• NFC provides unique advantages over
other available wireless technologies.
• The design includes a near-field
transmitter and receiver to send data
from one computer to another
3. How NFC Works :
NFC is based on RFID
technology that uses
magnetic field induction
between electronic
devices in close
proximity. For two
devices to communicate
using NFC, one device
must have an NFC
reader/writer and one
must have an NFC tag.
4. Benefits & Features:
• Not restricted to 1-to-1
communication
• Multiple devices in a small area can
communicate with each other using
the same frequency.
• Maximum transfer bit rate of
800kbps.
• No special software is required.
• Operation at a frequency of 13.5
MHz
• No ethical concerns due to range

6. Application
Social networking:
NFC can be used in social
networking situations, such as sharing
contacts, photos, videos or files, and entering
multiplayer mobile games.
8. Application
Identity documents:
The NFC Forum promotes the potential for NFC-
enabled devices to act as electronic identity
documents and keycards. As NFC has a short range
and supports encryption, it may be more suitable
than earlier, less private RFID systems.

•Data transfer rate is small compared
to blue tooth and other wireless
communications.
