  • the loop antenna 37 may be provided on the card reader side.
  • the frequency f2 of the disturbing magnetic field (secondary disturbing magnetic field) generated by the loop antenna 37 is set to be higher than the frequency f1 of the disturbing magnetic field (primary disturbing magnetic field) generated by the magnetic field generating unit 8. It may be a low frequency.
  • a frequency conversion circuit is attached to the loop antenna 37. In this way, the loop antenna 37 generates a low-frequency magnetic field suitable for interference (which is difficult to filter), and therefore skimming can be effectively prevented.
  • the magnetic field generation unit 8 since the magnetic field generation unit 8 generates a high-frequency magnetic field that can be propagated to a long distance, even if the distance between the loop antenna 37 and the magnetic field generation unit 8 is long, the magnetic field generation unit 8 can reliably connect to the loop antenna 37. Can transmit a magnetic field.

  • a countermeasure against skimming for the magnetic head 29 for reading magnetic data for example, a countermeasure such as encryption of data read by the magnetic head 29 is taken.
  • a magnetic card having a magnetic stripe on the back surface is taken as an example of the magnetic recording medium.
  • the present invention can also be applied to a magnetic recording medium reading apparatus that handles a magnetic card having magnetic stripes on the front surface or both surfaces.
  • a magnetic card is taken as an example of the magnetic recording medium.
  • the present invention can be applied not only to a magnetic card but also to an apparatus for reading a magnetic recording medium such as a passbook having a magnetic stripe.
  • the present invention can be applied to all devices for reading a magnetic recording medium, such as a card reader or passbook reader installed in an automatic transaction processing apparatus such as ATM, or a card reader installed in a card authentication terminal.
