Definitions
- the invention relates to a portable, microprocessor-based data carrier which can be operated both in contact and in a contactless manner.
- the portable data carrier is preferably designed as a chip card.
- Contact cards have electrical contact surfaces for power supply and data exchange with a corresponding data input / data output device that works in contact.
- Contact cards have been widely used for a long time as access authorization cards for GSM mobile radio systems, telephone cards, health insurance cards, bank cards etc.
- Contactless cards contain a coil as an antenna for energy supply and data exchange with a corresponding contactless (inductive) data input / output device.
- an antenna interface is provided in the card, which generates a DC voltage from an AC voltage induced in the coil to supply the microprocessor with voltage.
- the antenna interface also serves as a signal converter for the data to be exchanged between the contactless terminal and the microprocessor.
- the antenna interface is preferably integrated together with the microprocessor on a semiconductor module.
- the subject matter of the invention is a portable, microprocessor-supported data carrier which combines both functionalities (contact and contactless).
- portable Data carriers are known under the terms Combicard (combination of contact-based and non-contact functionality) or dual-interface card (card with contact-based and contactless interface).
- the type of data transmission between the portable data carrier and a data input / data output device operating in contact is naturally different from the type of data transmission between the portable data carrier and a data input / data output device operating without contact.
- Various transmission protocols are used for contact-based operation and for contactless operation of the portable data carrier.
- the portable data carriers according to the invention have an operating system which - regardless of the type of data transmission - processes and manages the data stored in various memory areas in accordance with the commands received from the respective data input / output device.
- One, two or more application programs can in turn be installed on such an operating system.
- Such portable data carriers on which several application programs are installed are also referred to as multifunctional chip cards.
- the portable data carrier according to the invention one would then speak of a multifunctional dual-interface card.
- Different memory areas can be assigned to each application.
- the portable data carrier could include a money card application supervised by banks and a public transport application supervised by a local public transport network operator.
- a wallet would be assigned to the money card application as a storage area and a corresponding public transport exchange would be assigned to the public transport application as a storage area.
- the object of the invention is therefore to provide a portable, microprocessor-supported data carrier which can be operated both in contact and contactless manner, in which it is ensured that contactless access to memory areas for the owner of the data carrier, which are to be reserved for the contact-based application , not possible.
- At least one data transfer-specific access condition is stored in the portable data carrier for at least one memory area, which, depending on the type of data transfer between the portable data carrier and a data input / data output device, defines the condition under which the access to this memory area is allowed.
- the access condition can be a single bit, which indicates as a flag whether or not access is permitted to this memory area in the current type of data transmission (contact-based or contactless).
- the procedure is then such that before accessing this memory area, ie before executing a command sent by the data input / data output, the portable data medium itself is read out the data transmission-specific access condition associated with this memory area using a control program stored in the portable data medium . Then it is checked whether, in the case of the current type of data transmission, the desired access command is permitted taking into account the access condition. The corresponding access command is only executed if control has shown that this access is permitted. Information about the type of current data transmission, ie which transmission protocol is currently being used, is stored in each case in the portable data carrier.
- the provision according to the invention of a data transmission-specific access condition thus reliably ensures that access is prohibited for certain memory areas in the case of contactless data transmission, while access is permitted in the case of contact-based data transmission.
- access is generally blocked in the case of contactless data transmission.
- the access restriction only applies to certain types of access (commands), while other types of access are permitted.
- a single access condition can be provided which defines different conditions for different access types under which this access type is permitted.
- a separate data transfer-specific access condition is provided for each type of access.
- reverse constellation is also within the scope of the invention, wherein in the case of contact, access to certain memory areas, which are to be reserved only for contactless operation, are blocked on the basis of appropriate access conditions.
- the data transmission-specific access condition according to the invention can be entered by authorized bodies using a secret information in a freely programmable, non-volatile memory of the portable data carrier, preferably the access conditions can also be reprogrammed.
- the access conditions are programmed in so-called initialization and / or personalization steps.
- ROM read-only memory
- FIG. 1 shows the portable data carrier in the form of a chip card. For the contact-based mode of operation, it has electrically conductive contact surfaces (Ki) on one side of the card.
- An antenna (A) in the form of a coil is located in the card body for contactless operation. For illustration purposes, the card body is shown broken open at two points in the area of the coil winding.
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic representation of the portable data carrier.
- the semiconductor module with microprocessor, memory and integrated antenna interface is shown.
- the antenna (A) is connected to this one semiconductor module on the one hand via corresponding connecting lines (LA) and on the other hand the contact surfaces (Ki) via corresponding connecting lines (LKi).
- the semiconductor module contains a read-only memory (ROM), in which at least parts of the operating system are stored, and a volatile working memory (RAM).
- EEPROM non-volatile, programmable memory divided into different memory areas. Among other things, part of the operating system may be saved.
- FIG. 3A shows the portable data carrier schematically in connection with a data input / data output device operating with contacts
- FIG. 3B shows the portable data carrier schematically in connection with a contactless data input / output device.
- FIG. 4 various memory areas of the EEPROM memory with the corresponding access conditions according to the invention are shown schematically as examples.
- the storage area “purse” is assigned 4 access conditions (ZB1, ZB2, ZB3, ZB4) that allow access to this storage area depending on the Define contact or non-contact mode of operation.
- the access conditions are stored as a flag in the form of a single bit, which can be set or not.
- ZB1 1: Read command permitted in contact operation
- ZB1 0: Read command prohibited in contact operation
- ZB2 1: Update command permitted in contact operation
- ZB2 0: Update command prohibited in contact operation
- ZB3 1: Read command prohibited in contactless operation
- ZB3 0: Read command permitted in contactless operation
- ZB4 1: Update command prohibited in contactless operation
- ZB2 0: Update command permitted in contactless operation.
- the access conditions themselves can be read internally (in the portable data carrier) in both operating modes.
- the access conditions can also be read out by the data input / output devices. However, they can only be changed by authorized bodies.
