Abstract
The present invention teaches a non-rechargeable hands free headset of small size. With the headset is a base transceiver unit which connects to the cell phone or other device having audio input and output. The headset transceiver unit may use a small non-rechargeable battery (“coin size”) for reduced size and easy recharging. The base transceiver unit may communicate with the headset via half or full duplex transmission and reception. This may also be achieved in alternative embodiments by digitally encoding one or both of the signals and transmitting them as digital data. The antenna of the headset unit may be located on or within the microphone tube, thus allowing a reduced headset size. Another space, weight and cost saving feature of the present invention is the ability to automatically control volume. Automatic volume control allows elimination of external volume control structure yet still allows volume control to occur. In the present invention, volume is controlled by the base device attached to the base transceiver unit. By this means, battery life may be extended yet without the cost and bulk of an external control device such as a switch of a size suitable for a user'"'"'s fingers to operate.
