Abstract

The IC card includes a non-contact type I/F section 32 for performing transmission/reception of data with an electronic ticket system 80 via a radio link R2 for IC card and a contact-type I/F section operating independently of the non-contact type I/F section 32, for performing transmission/reception of data via a physical contact is mounted. The portable telephone set includes a contact type IC card reader/writer 23 for performing read/write control of data with respect to the IC card 30 via the contact and the contact-type I/F section.

Claims

1. A portable telephone set comprising:

an IC card having a non-contact type interface for performing transmission/reception of data with an external system via a radio link and a contact type interface operating independently of the non-contact type interface, for performing transmission/reception of data via a physical contact; and

a portable telephone body on which the IC card is mounted, having a contact type reader/writer for performing read/write control of data with respect to the IC card via the contact and the contact type interface.

2. The portable telephone set according to claim 1, wherein the IC card has a memory section for storing data;

the portable telephone body has a communication control section for performing voice/data communication via a mobile network;

the contact type reader/writer control section stores data supplied via the mobile network under control of the communication control section into the memory section via the contact and the contact type interface; and

the data stored in the memory section is read by the external system via the radio link and the non-contact type interface.

3. The portable telephone set according to claim 2, wherein the data supplied via the mobile network is various kinds of service data for the user to receive various kinds of services.

4. The portable telephone set according to claim 2, wherein the data supplied via the mobile network is electronic ticket data.

5. The portable telephone set according to claim 1, wherein the IC card has a memory section for storing data;

the portable telephone body has a communication control section for performing voice/data communication via the mobile network;

the external system writes data into the memory section via the radio link and the non-contact type interface;

the contact type reader/writer control section reads the data stored in the memory section via the contact type interface and the contact; and

the communication control section transmits the read data to the mobile network.

6. The portable telephone set according to claim 5, wherein the data that the external system writes into the memory section is various kinds of service data for the user to receive various kinds of services.

7. The portable telephone set according to claim 5, wherein the data that the external system writes into the memory section is service point data.

8. An IC card comprising:

a non-contact type interface for performing transmission/reception of data with an external system via a radio link; and

a contact type interface operating independently of the non-contact type interface, for performing transmission/reception of data with a portable telephone body via a physical contact.
