发明名称 Avoiding NFC communication collisions between accessories and user equipment
摘要 An accessory for a user equipment (UE) includes a housing and a near field communication (NFC) circuit. The housing is slid on the UE to become attached in a stored position relative to the UE. The NFC circuit is attached at a location on the housing and configured to become powered by inductive coupling to signals emitted by another NFC circuit within the UE to temporarily operate to transmit data to the other NFC circuit within the UE as the accessory NFC circuit passes over the other UE NFC circuit while the housing is being slid on the UE before reaching the stored position relative to the UE. While the housing is in the stored position relative to the UE, the NFC circuit may be configured to be inhibited from transmitting data to the other NFC circuit within the UE irrespective of whether the other NFC circuit within the UE is emitting signals to attempt to provide inductive coupling to the NFC circuit.

主权项 1. An accessory for a user equipment, the accessory comprising: a housing that is slid on the user equipment to become attached in a stored position relative to the user equipment; and a near field communication (NFC) circuit attached at a location on the housing and configured to become powered by inductive coupling to signals emitted by another NFC circuit within the user equipment to temporarily operate to transmit data to the other NFC circuit within the user equipment as the NFC circuit passes over the other NFC circuit while the housing is being slid on the user equipment before reaching the stored position relative to the user equipment, wherein while the housing is in the stored position relative to the user equipment, the NFC circuit is inhibited from transmitting data to the other NFC circuit within the user equipment irrespective of whether the other NFC circuit is emitting signals to attempt to provide inductive coupling to the NFC circuit.
