Booklet/chip card shaped secured document e.g. electronic passport, for national program, has antenna and guilloches to interact with microelectronic chip and supply circuit to make them operational on placing document in non-contact reader

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The document (13) has a support with active security units having a microelectronic chip and a supply circuit, producing an electromagnetic response when the document crosses the electromagnetic field of a non-contact reader that interrogates the document. The support has passive security units with an antenna (11) and conductive guilloches (15), to interact with the chip and the circuit to make them operational when the document is placed in the electromagnetic field of the reader. The antenna has inductive, capacitive and resistive characteristics to amplify the response. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is also included for a system for verifying identity comprising a secured document. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Booklet or chip card shaped secured document e.g. electronic passport, identity document and registration document, for identification of a person or an object e.g. vehicle, for a national program for the issuance of a passport with reinforced security. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The configuration of the document permits to strongly increase the resistance of the existing secured documents, such as identity documents, against forgery attempts. The document allows that, if it is opened or disassembled, the microelectronic chip cannot operate alone, because it will be deprived of the passive security units which are associated to it. The guilloches and the magnetic field which they emit are specific to each identity document or each type of identity document, so that each radio frequency identification device cannot be separated from its identity document, or then becomes inactive, which constitutes a high degree of security. The physical or graphical security is strongly coupled with the electronic security of the document whose forgery becomes much more difficult. The document enables an additional security during the graphical and electrical personalization of the document. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a view of a booklet or chip card shaped secured document e.g. electronic passport. 7 : Microelectronic module 9 : Small antenna 11 : Antenna 13 : Secured document 15 : Conductive guilloches #CMT#INDUSTRIAL STANDARDS : #/CMT# The secured document e.g. electronic passport, with chip card format complies with a ISO 7816 standard.
