Proximity sensing method using loopback mechanism and wireless communications device thereof

Abstract

A proximity sensing method employed by a wireless communications device includes the steps of: performing a first predetermined operation to detect a presence of at least a transponder in the proximity of the wireless communications device; when the presence of a transponder in the proximity of the wireless communications device is not detected by the first predetermined operation, performing a second predetermined operation to obtain a first characteristic value and after a period of time, performing the second predetermined operation to obtain a second characteristic value sequentially; checking if the first characteristic value and the second characteristic value satisfy a predetermined criteria; and when the predetermined criterion is satisfied, performing the first predetermined operation again to check the presence of the transponder in the proximity of the wireless communications device.
