US Patent 11625707 Mitigating near-field-communication (NFC) antenna interference

This disclosure describes systems and techniques for enabling a communication device to communicate wirelessly with a near-field-communication (NFC)-enabled payment terminal while avoiding interference between the NFC-enabled payment terminal and other NFC payment instruments. In some instances, the communication device may receive, via a non-NFC communication protocol, a payment token from an identification device and may send, over NFC, the payment token to the NFC-enabled payment terminal for satisfying the cost of a transaction.
