RFID is a technology that uses radio frequencies to read goods and information embedded in objects from a distance. RFID is widely recognized as a core technology that can generate enormous economic ripple effects in various industrial fields such as logistics, distribution, procurement, military, food, and safety, and is utilized as a basic technology of USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) And it is recognized as a field that innovatively changes human lifestyle and existing industrial structure in the future.

However, since RFID provides only unidirectional communication in the past, there is a problem that it can receive only predetermined information and there is no function to transmit necessary information, so that there are disadvantages in providing various services. Near Field Communication (NFC) is a communication that can overcome this disadvantage. NFC (Near Field Communication) is a non-contact communication technology that uses a frequency band of 13.56 MHz as one of radio tag . This is a next-generation local area communication technology that is attracting attention because of its relatively short distance and its relatively low security.

As NFC can use both data reading and writing functions, it does not need the reader that was needed for RFID use. It is similar to conventional short range communication technologies such as Bluetooth, but it does not need to configure between devices like Bluetooth. In other words, it means a communication technology in which various wireless data are exchanged within a distance of 10 cm or less.
