Radiofrequency local communication interface between a mobile phone and a contactless reader
First Claim
1. A communication interface between a smart card to be connected to a smart card connector of a communication mobile substrate and a contactless communication network, comprising an antenna that is positioned in a mechanical guide able to be moved in extension with respect to the body of the communication mobile substrate, so that, when the mechanical guide is in an extended position, the antenna directly collects the radiofrequency waves intended for the smart card without the body of the communication mobile substrate being an obstacle for the radiofrequency waves, so that the smart card can communicate directly with a contactless communication network without using the communication mobile substrate, wherein the antenna is inductively coupled to the smart card located in the communication mobile substrate.

Abstract
A communication interface between a smart card to be connected to a smart card connector of a communication mobile substrate, and a wireless communication network, is disclosed. An antenna is offset and/or can be offset outside the structure of the communication mobile substrate, so that the smart card can communicate directly with a contactless communication network without using the communication mobile substrate.
