A method for identifying information on an external electronic device based on near field communication (NFC). The method includes transmitting a signal of an NFC band to the external electronic device; identifying whether the external electronic device is capable of NFC, requesting an NFC identifier (ID) from the external electronic device, and receiving the NFC ID from the external electronic device; receiving the NFC ID, reading a unique identifier from the NFC ID, and identifying a communication protocol type; identifying flag information included in the NFC ID; and determining whether the external electronic device is initially recognized and/or normally recognized through the flag information.

Electronic device and method for identifying product based on near field communication

An electronic device includes a communication interface operable to perform contactless communication with an external device; and a processor operable to control to determine a communication type to be performed with the external device; when the communication type is a first type of continuous communication, configure data in a long packet structure; when the communication type is a second type of discontinuous communication, configure data in a short packet structure; and perform data communication in the continuous communication or in the discontinuous communication with the external device on the basis of the determined communication type.

Continuous communication method and apparatus of contactless communication device

A continuous communication apparatus includes a communication interface configured for contactless communication with a different electronic device; and a processor configured to detect a trigger to initiate contactless communication with the different electronic device; determine a communication type associated with communication to be performed with the different electronic device upon detecting the trigger; set at least one parameter associated with continuous communication when the communication type is the continuous communication; and perform the continuous communication with the different electronic device on the basis of the configured parameter.
