NAME

nfc-emulate - NFC target emulation command line tool based on libnfc

SYNOPSIS

nfc-emulate [UID]

DESCRIPTION

nfc-emulate is an tag emulatation tool. Tag emulation is one of the main added features in NFC. To avoid abuse of existing systems, manufacturers of the NFC controller intentionally did not support emulation of custom UID numbers. The emulate tool demonstrates that this can still be done using transmission of raw-frames, and the desired UID can be optionally specified. Fast communication is necessary to respond in time during the anti-collision protocol. Using the USB interface gives some timing issues but an embedded microprocessor could be fast enough to emulate a tag with any UID. This makes it a serious thread for security systems that rely only on the uniqueness of the UID.

OPTIONS

UID 8 hex digits format that represents desired UID (default is DEADBEAF).
