Abstract
A device for managing operation of an object capable of contactless communication with a reader magnetically coupled to the object includes a modulator configured to modulate an impedance of a load connected across terminals of an antenna of the object during a transmission phase during which information is transmitted from the object to the reader. The device further includes a monitor configured to carry out a monitoring phase, prior to the transmission phase. The monitoring phase includes a test modulation of the impedance of the load, a monitoring of a level of amplitude modulation of a modulated test signal present at the antenna of the object and resulting from the test modulation, and a capacitive modification of the impedance of the load if this level is lower than a threshold.
