  • Patent number: 8056804
    Abstract: A reader/writer device performs noncontact communication with a noncontact IC card section (400) to which power is supplied from a power storage section (310) of a portable terminal (300) whereupon the card section is mounted. In the reader/writer device (100), a noncontact communication section (110) transmits and receives information to and from the IC card section (400) by noncontact communication, and a noncontact charging section (120) supplies power to the power storage section (310) in noncontact manner. When noncontact communication with the IC card section (400) cannot be performed by controlling the noncontact communication section (110), a contactless communication/charging control section (130) controls the noncontact charging section (120) to charge the power storage section (310) of the portable terminal (300) in noncontact manner, then, controls the noncontact communication section (110) again to perform noncontact communication.

  • Patent number: 6272530
    Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide A transmitter-receiver enables a user to send a mail in an optimal mode even to a portable terminal with lower functional capability without a need for awareness of a plurality of mail service providers. The transmitter-receiver notifies of arrival of the mail at an optimal communication cost depending on the importance of the mail, and unifies a plurality of mail spools. The unified mail spools are controlled by a spool integration unit. The transmitter-receiver according to the present invention comprises a terminal response unit for inquiring capability of a user terminal and a data form converting unit, and the mail is sent in an optimal form to the user terminal. In case the content of the mail cannot be read perfectly, it is designed in such manner that the mail is not deleted from the spool, and arrival of the mail is notified to the user at an optimal communication cost depending on the importance of the mail and position information of the user.
