Abstract
In a system according to the invention, a communication section of a mobile terminal detects a carrier from an external R/W, starts communication with the external R/W, and acquires content simplified data of contactless card function content from the external R/W. The acquired content simplified data is transferred to a control section using the contactless card function content and stored. Further, in this system, by connecting to a URL contained in the content simplified data, content body data of the contactless card function content corresponding to the content simplified data is downloaded and stored in the mobile terminal.
Claims10
A mobile terminal device comprising:
- a terminal body having an operating system;
- a contactless card function section that is provided in the terminal body and that acquires contactless card function content from an external apparatus by contactless communication;
- a contactless card function control section that operates on the operating system and that performs control to use the contactless card function content;
- and
- a controller that identifies whether data acquired from the external apparatus is the contactless card function content and sends the contactless card function content to the contactless card function control section, wherein the contactless card function control section has a storage section that stores the contactless card function content and delivers the contactless card function content to a processing section operating on the operating system.
A data acquisition method of acquiring contactless card function content from an external apparatus by contactless communication in a mobile terminal device having a contactless card function control section that performs control to use the contactless card function content, comprising the steps of:
- identifying whether data acquired from the external apparatus is contactless card function content, and sending the contactless card function content to the contactless card function control section;
- storing the contactless card function content;
- and
- delivering the contactless card function content to a processing section operating on the operating system.
