Near field communication (NFC) is a wireless technology that primarily finds application in tablet PCs and mobile phones for exchange of data and transactions over a short range. NFC works on the principle of radio-frequency identification (RFID) and has materialized as an alternative to various other wireless technologies, such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and other radio protocols, for the purpose of short-range data exchange. NFC provides higher data security in comparison to other wireless technologies. Due to these additional benefits, NFC has emerged as a promising technology for various crucial applications.The global near field communication (NFC) market was estimated at US$1.07 billion in 2012. Growing at a 43.7% CAGR during the forecast horizon between 2013 and 2019, it is expected to reach US$20.01 Billion by 2019
