Abstract: A terminal includes: a near field communication (NFC) reading unit to acquire tag information via NFC; an NFC tag information processor to extract NFC header information from the tag information; and a memory to store the NFC header information. The NFC tag information processor analyzes the NFC header information, and installs and executes an application based on the NFC header information. A method for retrieving an application, includes: acquiring tag information; extracting near field communication (NFC) header information from the tag information; retrieving the application based on the tag information; and installing and executing the application.
Abstract: Provided is a wireless communication device in which an antenna switch module is omitted. The wireless communication device includes a PA that amplifies a transmission signal, a transmission circuit that processes the amplified transmission signal, an antenna, and a control unit that alternately activates and deactivates the PA, the transmission circuit being configured to match an impedance between the transmission circuit and the antenna when the PA is activated, and to put an impedance as seen from the antenna toward the transmission circuit when the PA is deactivated in a high impedance state.
Abstract: A wireless communications network includes a plurality of wireless devices equipped with direction-agile antenna systems to allow the wireless devices to establish and maintain wireless data links with each other.
