Abstract
An electronic device and related operations are disclosed, including a communication circuit, a memory and a magnetic stripe transmission (MST) module for radiating a magnetic pulse. A processor implements the operations, including: controlling the MST module to change an emitted radiation pattern of the magnetic pulse in prespecified order to iteratively emit the plurality of radiation patterns, in response to detecting a prespecified event, selecting a presently emitted radiation pattern of the magnetic pulse, and storing information corresponding to the selected radiation pattern in the memory, or transmitting the information corresponding to the selected radiation pattern to the server.
Claims20
An electronic device comprising:
- a communication circuit configured to communicate with a server;
- a memory configured to store secure data and a plurality of radiation patterns;
- a magnetic stripe transmission (MST) module configured to radiate a magnetic pulse communicating the secure data;
- and
- a processor electrically connected with the memory, the communication circuit, and the MST module, wherein the processor is configured to:
- control the MST module to change an emitted radiation pattern of the magnetic pulse in prespecified order to iteratively emit the plurality of radiation patterns;
- in response to detecting a prespecified event, select a presently emitted radiation pattern of the magnetic pulse;
- and
- store information corresponding to the selected radiation pattern in the memory, or transmit the information corresponding to the selected radiation pattern to the server.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a memory configured to store secure data and a plurality of radiation patterns;
- a magnetic stripe transmission (MST) module configured to radiate a magnetic pulse communicating the secure data;
- and
- a processor electrically connected with the memory and the MST module, wherein the processor is configured to:
- acquire information associated with an external device receiving the magnetic pulse;
- select at least one radiation pattern correlating with the acquired information associated with the external device, the at least one radiation pattern selected from among the plurality of radiation patterns;
- and
- control the MST module to radiate the magnetic pulse in the selected radiation pattern to communicate the secure data to the external device.
