Is it possible to create an application utilizing NFC(Near field Communication) of mobile phone which will communicate with existing RFID infrastructure ?Have both in the same frequency range? I read in an article that says RFID has a High Frequency (HF) band at 13.56 MHz and that have longer communication range. I confused that NFC has the same frequency limit but short communication range;how it possible?Does NFC support all RFID technologies ( both active and passive RFID)?

Answer 1

I think yes. But only passive RFID technology. Check out this package. Also this link. Both RFID and NFC work over same frequency.

Answer 2

Symbian Anna implements NFC via the JSR-257. Not sure if it allows reading RFID. Check this link for more info:
