DEVICE, METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR EFFICIENTLY POWERING A NEAR FIELD COMMUNICATION DEVICE
First Claim
1. A device comprising:
- a module configured to;
exchange data with a near field communication (NFC) device; and
transmit energy to the NFC device; and
,a processor configured to;
receive, using the module, energy data from the NFC device, the energy data comprising data for determining a difference between a current energy level of an energy storage apparatus at the NFC device and a given amount of energy for performing a given function at the NFC device;
determine the difference from the energy data; and
,transmit, using the module, an amount of energy corresponding to the difference, to the NFC device.
