Activities

TC47 (formerly TC32-TG19) is developing:

*) a NFC Data Link security standard;

*) set of commands for NFC RF Front-end configuration (NFC-FEC);

*) a high data rate system operating on 2.4 GHz.

Open-NFC

Ecma invites experts from ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 06, SC 17, SC 27 and SC 31, ETSI/SCP and the NFC forum to review and provide comments on NFC drafts and publications. After experts register here, they are able to issue, discuss their technical comments using this procedure.

Memory-Spot White Paper

TC47 started working on a 2.4 GHz solution for rapidly accessing large amounts of data in December 2007. Here is the Memory-Spot White Paper.

NFC Presentation and White Paper

TC47 started working on the signalling interface and protocols for low cost, closely coupled wireless Consumer Electronic (CE) devices in September 2002, click here for a presentation of the concepts.

TC47 explored the application area of NFC in the NFC White Paper: report (pdf).

NFCIP Standards

National bodies approved the Near Field Communication Interface and Protocol (NFCIP-1) standard ECMA-340 under ISO/IEC JTC 1 fast track approval as ISO/IEC 18092, see also press-release. In June 2005 ETSI endorsed ECMA-340 2nd edition as EN 302 190 1.1.1.

The December 2003 GA published NFCIP-2 as ECMA-352 and ISO/IEC JTC 1 adopted it as ISO/IEC 21418.

NFCIP Test Standards

The June 2004 GA published NFCIP-1 - RF Interface Test Methods as ECMA-356, consult http://www.arsenal.ac.at/rfid Link to non-Ecma site. Ecma is not responsible for the contents of the site.for test setups.

The December 2004 GA published NFCIP-1 - Protocol test methods as ECMA-362, which complements ECMA-356.

NFC Wired Interface

TC47 developed a simple two-wire interface, that connects a (NFC) Radio Frequency front-end and a transceiver, as ECMA-373 (ISO/IEC 28361).
