The present document relates to Near Field Communication (NFC). In particular, the present document relates to the routing of application related information in a system comprising multiple NFC Execution environments (NFCEE). A method for identifying an application on an NFC enabled device () comprising a plurality of NFC execution environments () is described, wherein the application is hosted by one of the plurality of NFC execution environments (). In one aspect an example method comprises: receiving an external request for accessing the application over an air interface () of the NFC enabled device (); forwarding the request to more than one of the plurality of NFC execution environments (); receiving more than one response to the request from the more than one of the plurality of NFC execution environments (), respectively; and analyzing the more than one response to identify a positive response indicating that the application is hosted by a corresponding one of the plurality of NFC execution environments ().

Application routing configuration for NFC controller supporting multiple NFCEEs

A communications system may include a communications device including a first Bluetooth transceiver. The first Bluetooth transceiver may comprise a clock. The first Bluetooth transceiver may be capable of scanning a plurality of different operating frequencies for a pairing request based upon the clock. The communications device may further include an output device coupled with the Bluetooth transceiver and capable of outputting data associated with the clock via a communications path different than Bluetooth. The system may also include a mobile communications device including an input device capable of receiving the clock data from the output device via the communications path, and a second Bluetooth transceiver coupled with the input device and capable of generating the pairing request based upon the received clock data.
