Communication station for communicating with the transponder, and other communication stations with different protocols

摘要

A communication station (1) is suitable for contactless communication with transponders and with further communication stations and has a first protocol-executing circuit (12) and a second protocol-executing circuit (13), the first protocol-executing circuit (12) being designed to effect communication between the communication station (1) and transponders under a station/transponder protocol and the second protocol-executing circuit (13) being designed to effect communication between the communication station (1) and further communication stations under a station/station protocol.
