Converting the MRZ data received from the server unit into NDEF data according to the NDEF format in the NDEF data recording unit of the apparatus unit;
Checking whether an NFC apparatus exists in the NFC apparatus sensing unit through the antenna unit;
Analyzing the response data from the NFC apparatus in the NFC apparatus detection unit to distinguish whether the apparatus is an NFC tag or an NFC mobile apparatus, analyzing the type of the tag if the tag is a tag, and setting an operation mode of the NFC controller unit in a reader mode;
Confirming how to store NDEF data according to the type of the tag in the NDEF data analysis unit;
The NDEF data analyzer generates NDEF data to be stored according to the tag type and transmits the NDEF data to the tag using the tag write command;
Storing the transmitted NDEF data in a tag;
If the mobile device does not support NFC, the NFC device is searched again. If an NFC mobile device such as a smart phone is detected, the NFC controller sets the communication setting to P2P mode and the NDEF data analyzer Confirming how to store the NDEF data;
The NDEF data analyzing unit generates NDEF data to be stored according to the communication setting in the P2P mode and transmits the NDEF data using the P2P communication; And
And storing the transmitted NDEF data in an NFC mobile device. &Lt; Desc / Clms Page number 20 &gt;
