As can be seen in Fig 48, the card response can be properly received in Fig 48a, where
no noise applies. In Fig 48b the card response together with the noise is shown. The
noise spikes, which are much larger than the sub carrier signal itself, introduce some
clipping effects, which are detected like phase shifts. This disturbs the type B
communication. Such noise must be eliminated or at least reduced to a level, which does
not disturb the communication anymore.
