- This invention relates to a bridging device in a mobile system. More particularly, this invention relates to a bridging device in a mobile system for enabling near field communication. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for integrating a bridging device into a mobile phone and to a method for powering a bridging device.
- a request for payment is transmitted from a first device to a second device using a near field communication (NFC) interface.

- the induction charger module 32 includes an inductive loop tuned to the 1800 MHz primary GSM band or the 2.1 GHz UMTS band and captures some of the energy transmitted by the mobile phone during uplink bursts. This energy is then stored in capacitive circuitry in order to provide power.
- FIG. 3 depicts the UHF-to-NFC Frequency Converter Bridge.
- This exemplary embodiment is defined specifically for the purpose of bridging the nonstandard 2.45GHz NFC SIM card, used by mobile service providers such as China Mobile, to the standard 13.56MHz NFC standard while allowing the signal from the SIM card to successfully transverse the mobile phone cover and battery 20.

Its function is to down convert a 2.45 GHz NFC signal to 13.56 MHz. It includes an RF mixer and local oscillator, followed by a band-pass filter. Power supply for the RF amplifier module 30 and the RF frequency converter module 34 can be supplied directly from the mobile phone's battery or from the induction charger module 32.
- Figure 4 depicts an exemplary embodiment similar to the one depicted in Figure 2 and is also defined for NFC-on-SD Card, NFC-on- Motherboard and NFC-on-SIM Card applications. It, however, differs in its implementation as the RF amplifier module 34 in the Active Antenna NFC-to-NFC bridging device 10 is replaced by an NFC transceiver module 36 which fully modulates/demodulates and amplifies the NFC signal, as opposed to simply amplifying the NFC signal.
- the NFC transceiver module 36 performs a full transmission/reception and modulation/demodulation of NFC signals at 13.56MHz.

- the UHF transceiver module 38 performs the full transmission/reception and modulation/demodulation of UHF-modulated NFC signals at 2.45 GHz. Accordingly, UHF transceiver module 38 allows for the bi-directional conversion of 2.45 GHz NFC signals to/from baseband and thereafter to/from an NFC signal at 13.56 MHz. Power supply for the NFC transceiver module 36 and UHF transceiver module 38 can be supplied directly from the mobile phone's battery or from the induction charger module 32.
