- ISO/IEC 14443
ISO/IEC 14443 defines a
proximity card used foridentification that usually uses the standardcredit card form factor defined by ISO/IEC 7810 ID-1. Other form factors also are possible.tandard
The standard was developed by the "Working Group 8" of "Subcommittee 17" in "ISO's/IEC's Joint Technical Committee 1". The Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader uses an embedded
microcontroller (including its own microprocessor and several types of memory) and amagnetic loop antenna that operates at 13.56 MHz (RFID frequency). More recentICAO standards for machine-readable travel documents specify a cryptographically signedfile format andauthentication protocol for storingbiometric features (photos of theface ,fingerprint s, and/or iris).ISO/IEC 14443 consists of four parts and describes two types of cards: type A and type B. The main differences between these types concern modulation methods, coding schemes (Part 2) and protocol initialization procedures (Part 3). Both type A and type B cards use the same transmission protocol described in Part 4. The transmission protocol specifies data block exchange and related mechanisms:
#data block chaining
#waiting time extension
#multi-activationISO/IEC 14443 uses following terms for components:; PCD: proximity coupling device (or reader); PICC: proximity integrated circuit card
