commands are named “AppSelection1” and “AppSelection2”. Only one of those

commands need to be sent to the card If both tries to select the PSE file are answered

with an error, we can assume that we have no PSE crad in the field.

When the return value is positive, the PSE name will be taken from the return answer

and the function “Compare” checks whether it is valid or not.

If the PSE is valid, the return answer will be analyzed until the AID is found. Then the

function “Card_Scheme” will be used to determine the card type. The type of the card will

be returned afterwards.

The function “Compare” checks the PSE of the card with the given PSE values

1PAY.SYS.DDF01 and 2PAY.SYS.DDF01. If the PSE values do not match, there is no

PSE on the card and the function returns an according value.

The function “Card_Scheme” retrieves the AID of the card and checks it with a list of

known AIDs and then returns a number.

These AIDs and their matching card types can be obtained from Wikipedia [16.].
