Abstract

A mobile phone capable of being activated by a signal transmitted from an activation device is provided. The mobile phone includes an IC card driver connected with a communication system for communicating with others, and an access module connected with the IC card driver and the communication system for receiving the signal transmitted from the activation device to activate the mobile phone, thereby communicating with others.

Claims

1. A mobile phone capable of being activated by a signal transmitted from an activation device, comprising:

an IC card driver connected with a communication system for communicating with others; and

an access module connected with said IC card driver and said communication system for receiving said signal transmitted from said activation device to activate said mobile phone, thereby communicating with said others.

2. The mobile phone according to claim 1, wherein said activation device comprises an integrated circuit (IC) card and a transmitter.

3. The mobile phone according to claim 2, wherein said IC card records an identification data for being recognized by said access module.

4. The mobile phone according to claim 2, wherein said transmitting device automatically detects a distance between said activation device and said mobile phone, and when said activation device approaches said mobile phone in a specific distance, said signal is transmitted from said activation device to activate said communication system to get communication with said others.

5. The mobile phone according claim 1, wherein when said activation device is carried on a user and said user is approaching said mobile phone in said specific distance, said communication system is activated by said activation device.

6. The mobile phone according to claim 5, wherein said mobile phone is used in a vehicle.

7. The mobile phone according to claim 6, wherein said mobile phone is combined with an audio in said vehicle.

8. The mobile phone according to claim 1, wherein when said access module detects said signal transmitted from said activation device, said IC card driver activates said communication system.
