Abstract
A mobile device includes a transceiver for performing wireless communication, a microprocessor for operating said mobile device, a near field communications (NFC) system for performing wireless communication independent of the transceiver and at a lower amount of power than said transceiver, a contactless front end included in the NFC system for receiving or transmitting signals with an NFC capable device, and a pairing system implemented in the microprocessor for pairing one NFC capable device with another NFC capable device. The pairing system configures the mobile device to receive a tag or a device driver from one of the NFC capable devices that are to be paired with each other; and transfers the tag or a device driver obtained from the tag to the other of the NFC capable devices in order to enable interoperation between the two NFC capable devices.
