METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATIC APPLICATION SELECTION IN ELECTRONIC DEVICE USING MULTIPLE DISCOVERY MANAGERS

摘要

FIELD: radio engineering, communication.;SUBSTANCE: said automatic selection of one of the near field communication applications is performed by a protocol discovery manager and an application discovery manager. The application discovery manager is located within a default execution environment. The protocol discovery manager, which operates in a near field communication circuit controller, performs application discovery at the mode switch level, the collision detection level and the protocol level. The application discovery manager performs application discovery at the application level. Upon selecting an application, the application discovery can either launch the application or forward a message to the appropriate execution environment for further execution as required by the selected application.;EFFECT: enabling automatic selection of near field communication applications.;19 cl, 6 dwg
