Abstract

Near Field Communication (NFC) is an emerging short-range wireless communication technology that offers great and varied promise in services such as payment, ticketing, gaming, crowd sourcing, voting, navigation, and many others. NFC technology enables the integration of services from a wide range of applications into one single smartphone. NFC technology has emerged recently, and consequently not much academic data are available yet, although the number of academic research studies carried out in the past two years has already surpassed the total number of the prior works combined. This paper presents the concept of NFC technology in a holistic approach from different perspectives, including hardware improvement and optimization, communication essentials and standards, applications, secure elements, privacy and security, usability analysis, and ecosystem and business issues. Further research opportunities in terms of the academic and business points of view are also explored and discussed at the end of each section. This comprehensive survey will be a valuable guide for researchers and academicians, as well as for business in the NFC technology and ecosystem.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The results enable continuous streaming of data at rates of up to 800 bytes/s with dual channels, orders of magnitude larger than previously achieved in NFC sensors.

    “The results enable continuous streaming of data at rates of up to 800 bytes/s with dual channels, which is orders of magnitude larger than those previously achieved in NFC sensors (15–17).”

    From Binodal, wireless epidermal electronic systems with in-sensor analytics for neonatal intensive care (2019) · cites this paper as [15]

    Section 2.2 discusses techniques for increasing NFC data rates, but does not report continuous sensor-data streaming at 800 bytes/s, dual channels, or an orders-of-magnitude comparison. Searches for those terms and for NFC sensor streaming found no passage supporting the attributed result; the available copy is not truncated. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
