Abstract
Station for reading and/or writing in a memory of a token having an electronic circuit, wherein the station includes a token storing system. An antenna arrangement includes antennas. At least two antennas include antenna loops that are disposed adjacently and at least partly superposed on each other so as to define an enlarged reading and/or writing area in which transmission quality is substantially homogeneous. A communication unit is adapted to exchange information with the memory via the antenna arrangement when the token is arranged in the token storing system in an orientation that allows for communication.
