15
What is NFC
• NFC or Near Field Communication is a short range high
frequency wireless communication technology
• A radio communication is established by touching two
devices or keeping them in a proximity of a few
centimeters up to 10 cm
• Allows communication between
• Two powered (active) devices
• One powered and one non self powered (passive) device

Benefits of NFC
• NFC is compatible with existing passive RFID infrastructures unlike
Bluetooth.
• NFC is slow, uses less power and less setup time compared to Bluetooth
• Uses Short range secured channel for communication which prevents
hackers from snooping information during data transfer.
21
Benefits of NFC
• Easy to setup and incorporate with compatible existing systems
• No special software needed
• No manual configuration and settings needed
• No search and pair procedure needed.
22
Limitations of NFC
• NFC’s maximum data transfer rate is slower than that of Bluetooth
4.0.
• Short distance action is a major drawback of NFC
23
iBeacon / Beacon / BLE
24
iBeaCon (iOS + BeaCon)
• Beacon tech introduced by Apple
• An extremely accurate locating system
• Runs on Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
• Push notification system based on location
• When the device is nearby any beacon content, there will be a push
notification in the device
25
iBeacon Features
• Included in Bluetooth 4.0+
• Geo-fence
• Peer-to-Peer, WPAN
• Low power consumption
• Low cost
• Multi Vendor interoperability
26
iBeacon:Multiple points Communication

Proximity and Microlocation
29
iBeacon: Benefits
• Low cost & Low Energy
• P2P and star network support
• Wider range than NFC
30
iBeacon: Limitations
• Not approved for secured financial transactions
• Conflicts with different Beacon points is still not handled
• Turn location monitoring all the time
• Requires recharging the active device
• Practical transfer rate is below 100 kb/s
• iBeacon needs power source.
31
Beacon in Commercial use
• Paypal Beacon
32
Zigbee: PAN, Mesh Network, Ad-hoc digital
radio networks
33
Zigbee: Features
• Low cost and Low Energy
• Mesh network PAN
• Can transmit data over long range
• Operates in the industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) radio bands:
868 MHz in Europe, 915 MHz
34
Zigbee: Benefits
• Can not act as both Beacon and Non-Beacon Mode
• Remote Sensing and control
35
Zigbee: Limitations
• Very low bandwidth
• Practical range is too low 10-meter range. In comparison the
specification is up to 100m

•ANT+ is the wireless
technology that allows your
monitoring devices to talk to
each other. Leading brands
design ANT+ into top products
to ensure that you get the data
you want - when and where
you want it. Fundamentally,
ANT+ gives you the simplest,
most expandable and most
reliable user experience
possible.
Ant+: What is Ant+
•ANT+ stands for
interoperability which means
that ANT+ products from
multiple brands work
together. Plus, because
devices are compatible, you
can always add to or update
your monitoring system.
41
Ant+: Device Profile
ANT+ devices use the ANT+ network key to access the ANT+
network, and they implement at least one of the ANT+ device
profiles.

NFC: Overview
47
Features of NFC
• NFC is an extention of Radio frequency Identification (RFID)
technology that combines the interface of a smartcard and a
reader into a single device.
• It operates within gobal unlicensed radio frequency band of
13,56MHz with a bandwidth of 14KHz.
• Supported data rates 106,212 and 424 Kbit/s
• Setup time is < 0,1 sec
• Able to receive and transmit data at the same time This
solves the problem of recovering data corruption during
transmission .

iBeacon - Technical background
• iBeacon are tiny lowcost, low energy, battery operated wireless transmitter
• iBeacon broadcast small data packet per second using BLE
• iBeacon enabled Apps are notified when the mobile device moves in or out
of the range of iBeacon using geo-location (micro-location) and contextual
interaction
• Proximity to a specific iBeacon can trigger some app functionality to
perform a specific action on a specific mobile device at an exact specific
time and in a specific location
• If Apps can connect to the Net this interaction can be taken to next stage
