NFC ROUTING METHOD
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving by a near field communication (NFC) router of a mobile device, a first message from an external NFC device and, in accordance with a first rule, processing said first message as being targeted to a first processing device of said mobile device;
receiving by said NFC router a second message from said external NFC device;
detecting by said NFC router a bit pattern in said second message indicating that said first processing device is not an intended target of said second message and, when it is detected that the first processing device in not the intended target of said second message, activating a second rule; and
receiving by said NFC router a further first message from said external NFC device, and in accordance with said second rule, processing said further first message as being targeted to said intended target processing device.

Abstract
A near field communication (NFC) router of a mobile device receives a first message from an external NFC device and, in accordance with a first active rule, processes the first message as being targeted to a first host processing device of the mobile device. When the NFC router receives a second message from the external NFC device and detects a bit pattern in the second message indicating that the first host processing device is not an intended target of the second message, the NFC router activates a second rule. When the NFC router receives a further first message from the external NFC device, the NFC router processes the further first message as being targeted to a target host processing device in accordance with the second active rule.

12. A mobile device comprising:
-
a plurality of processing devices; and a near field communication (NFC) router, which, in operation; receives a first message from an external NFC device and, in accordance with a first rule, processes said first message as targeted to a first processing device of said mobile device; receives a second message from said external NFC device;
detects a bit pattern in said second message indicating that said first processing device is not an intended target processing device of said second message and, when the bit pattern indicating said first processing device is not the intended target processing device, activates a second rule; andreceives a further first message from said external NFC device, and in accordance with said second rule, processes said further first message as targeted to said intended target processing device. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)

16. A device, comprising:
-
one or more memories; and processing circuitry, which, in operation; responds to a first near field communication (NFC) message from an external NFC device by identifying a processing device of a plurality of processing devices and processing the first NFC message based on the identified processing device of the plurality of processing devices; determines, based on bits of a second NFC message received from the external NFC device, whether the second NFC message was directed to the identified processing device; and when it is determined that the second NFC message was not directed to the identified processing device of the plurality of processing devices, responds to a third RFC message by identifying a second processing device of the plurality of processing devices and processing the third NFC message received from the external NFC device based on the second identified processing device. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
