For TR0 MIN , the Poll Mode value MUST be used. Refer to Appendix A.2 forthe value of t nn .The exact quantity of what constitutes ‘any detectable disturbance’ is not defined by this version ofthe specification.5.9.2 Frame Delay Time Listen→PollThe Frame Delay Time Listen→Poll (FDT B,POLL ) is the time between a Listen Frame and a PollFrame, as shown in Figure 13. The minimum value FDT B,POLL,MIN defines the time an <strong>NFC</strong>Forum Device in Poll Mode has to wait before sending a new Poll Frame after receipt of a ListenFrame. A maximum value FDT B,POLL,MAX is not defined. FDT B,POLL,MIN is defined:FDT B,POLL,MIN = TR2 MINTR2 MIN is the minimum value of TR2, as shown in Figure 13. The value of TR2 MIN , supported bythe <strong>NFC</strong> Forum Device in Listen Mode, is indicated in the <strong>Protocol</strong>_Type of the SENSB_RESResponse as specified in Table 31 in Section 5.6.<strong>NFC</strong> <strong>Digital</strong> <strong>Protocol</strong> Page 66
