# Standard NFC Card Emulation
The cardEmulation module implements Near-Field Communication (NFC) card emulation.
> **NOTE**
> The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 8. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
## Modules to Import
```
import cardEmulation from '@ohos.nfc.cardEmulation';
```
## cardEmulation.isSupported
isSupported(feature: number): boolean
Checks whether a certain type of card emulation is supported.
**System capability**: SystemCapability.Communication.NFC
**Return value**
| **Type**| **Description**|
| -------- | -------- |
| boolean | Returns **true** if the card emulation is supported; returns **false** otherwise.|
## HceService
Implements Host-based Card Emulation (HCE). Before calling any API in **HceService**, you must use **new cardEmulation.HceService()** to create an **HceService** instance.
### startHCE
startHCE(aidList: string[]): boolean
Starts HCE.
**Required permissions**: ohos.permission.NFC_CARD_EMULATION
**System capability**: SystemCapability.Communication.NFC
**Parameters**
| Name | Type | Mandatory| Description |
| ------- | -------- | ---- | ----------------------- |
| aidList | string[] | Yes | Application ID (AID) list to be registered for card emulation.|
### stopHCE
stopHCE(): boolean
Stops HCE.
**Required permissions**: ohos.permission.NFC_CARD_EMULATION
**System capability**: SystemCapability.Communication.NFC
### on
on(type: "hceCmd", callback: AsyncCallback): void;
Subscribes to messages from the peer device after **startHCE()**.
**Required permissions**: ohos.permission.NFC_CARD_EMULATION
**System capability**: SystemCapability.Communication.NFC
**Parameters**
| Name | Type | Mandatory| Description |
| -------- | ----------------------- | ---- | -------------------------------------------- |
| type | string | Yes | Event type to subscribe to. The value is **hceCmd**. |
| callback | AsyncCallback | Yes | Callback invoked to return the subscribed event. The input parameter is a data array that complies with the Application Protocol Data Unit (APDU).|
### sendResponse
sendResponse(responseApdu: number[]): void;
Sends a response to the peer device.
**Required permissions**: ohos.permission.NFC_CARD_EMULATION
**System capability**: SystemCapability.Communication.NFC
**Parameters**
| Name | Type | Mandatory| Description |
| ------------ | -------- | ---- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| responseApdu | number[] | Yes | Data to send, which is an array that complies with the APDU.|
**Example**
```js
var hceService = new cardEmulation.HceService();
hceService.startHCE([
"F0010203040506", "A0000000041010"
])
hceService.stopHCE();
hceService.on("hceCmd", (err, res) => {
if(err.data === 0) {
console.log('callback => Operation hceCmd succeeded. Data: ' + JSON.stringify(res));
hceService.sendResponse([0x00,0xa4,0x04,0x00,
0x0e,0x32,0x50,0x41,0x59,0x2e,0x53,0x59,0x53,0x2e,0x44,0x44,
0x46,0x30,0x31,0x00]);
} else {
console.log('callback => Operation hceCmd failed. Cause: ' + err.data);
}
})
