Abstract :
Contactless credit cards as a sub-division of smart cards offer a promising new market for RFID technologies. We consider in simulations, verified with experimental results, the way from the electrical supply power as required for the operation of contactless payment terminals to the card performance as required to allow a payment transaction within a limited time. For this purpose, we consider the paypass reference equipment, which is similar to a typical use case and specified to test product compliance.
