Contactless Applications Some examples

 Payment  Paypass  VSDC

 Transportation

 Three main features:  No contact with the validator  Fast transactions, generally below 500ms  Operates in short ranges

 Calypso

 Access  Gemalto Corporate Badges

Contactless protocol standards Most common protocol standards  ISO 14443 Type A  With Phillips proprietary encryption&authentication => Mifare

 ISO 14443 Type B  Same Block Transmission Protocol as Type A (ISO 14443-4)  Physical layer and initialization procedure (anticollision and selection) are different from Type A

 ISO 14443 Type B’ or Innovatron  Same physical layer as Type B  Above layers are proprietary

 Felica from Sony (Proprietary) also called type C  ISO 15693

ISO 14443 Division: ISO 14443-2 Physical Layer ISO 14443-3 Initialization and Anticollision ISO 14443-4 Block Transmission Protocol

Use for RFID Tags

Contactless protocol standards Common Behavior  Contactless Reader/validator  When switched-on, the contactless reader generates a Radio Frequency (RF) field.  It starts polling for a contactless device by sending requests (REQA,REQB,…) periodically.  If a correct answer is received, it executes an anticollision loop in order to detect all devices in the field. Then it selects one of them and starts data communication.

 Contactless cards  The power is provided by the RF field  An RF antenna is connected to the card to retrieve this power.

 Contactless mobile phones  Specifications of the NFC Forum to address use cases related to a contactless mobile phone environment  Antenna in on the mobile connected to a NFC chip, this NFC chip forwards contactless data to the SIM card.

ISO 14443 Type A/B protocol description Contactless Data Communication  Once the initialization and anticollision phases are over, the data communication begins  RF Reader sends the first command (generally an APDU)  The APDU protocol is similar to the one of T=1 protocol – Data is always included in response – No GetResponse()

 The protocol is Half Duplex, the RF does not reader send the next APDU before the card answers the previous one

 When the transaction is over, the RF reader sends an Halt or Deselect Command.  All communication stops  The card then waits for a Wake-UP signal or a field exit.

 Risk of “tearing” or “field exit” before the end of the transaction is high. It is the role of the application to prevent corruption in those cases.
