Abstract
A system for facilitating communication between an initiator and a target is provided. The initiator transmits a signal to the target including an indication of the communication capability of the initiator. For example, the indication may specify that the initiator is a peer-to-peer capable device. In this way, if the target is configured to communicate according to multiple techniques, such as peer-to-peer protocols and proximity card techniques, the target may be able to determine the appropriate communication method to use. Furthermore, the target may be able to change from a smart card emulation to a peer-to-peer configuration based on the indication received. Corresponding methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are also provided.
