<p>Felicity Card, or FeliCa, an RFID smart card system, is the NFC standard in
|
|
Japan, Hong Kong and other markets in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. It has
|
|
been expanding in adoption in that region and is well used among transit,
|
|
retail, and loyalty services. Adding support for FeliCa in Android devices
|
|
destined for that region improves their usefulness.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2 id="implementation">Implementation</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>HCE FeliCa requires NFC hardware that supports the NFC-F (JIS 6319-4) standard.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Host Card Emulation (HCE) of FeliCa is essentially a parallel implementation to
|
|
the existing HCE implementation on Android; it creates new classes for FeliCa
|
|
where it makes sense and merges with the existing HCE implementation where
|
|
possible.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The following Android components are included in the Android Open Source Project
|
|
(AOSP):</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Framework classes
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Public HostNfcFService (convenience service class)
|
|
<li>@hide NfcFServiceInfo
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<li>Modifications to core NFC framework</li></ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>As with most Android platform features, manufacturers write the drivers to
|
|
make the hardware work with the API.</p>

<p>Use the <a href="/compatibility/cts/index.html">Android Compatibility
