First Claim
Patent Images
1. A terminal, comprising:
- a near field communication (NFC) reading unit to acquire tag information via NFC;
an NFC tag information processor to extract NFC header information from the tag information; and
a memory to store the NFC header information,wherein the NFC tag information processor analyzes the NFC header information, and executes an application corresponding to the analyzed NFC header information, if the application is detected in the terminal, andif the application is not detected in the terminal, the NFC tag information processor transmits, to an NFC management server, NFC header information and receives a list of one or more applications corresponding to the NFC header information, and the memory stores the received list of one or more applications.
