System and method for providing an emergency response via a wireless system
First Claim
1. A system for providing an emergency response via a radio frequency link, the system comprising:
- a) a mobile transceiver assembly including;
a radio network transceiver configured to receive and transmit radio frequency signals via a the radio frequency link, a location determination receiver configured to receive location determination signals from a location determination transmitter, an emergency notification device configured to generate an emergency notification signal upon actuation by a registered user of the mobile transceiver assembly, the emergency notification signal configured to be transmitted via the radio network transceiver, and a mobile transceiver assembly controller operatively coupled to the radio network transceiver, the location determination receiver, and the emergency notification device, the mobile transceiver assembly controller including a processor and a memory operatively coupled to the processor of the mobile transceiver assembly controller; and
b) an operations center operatively coupled to the mobile transceiver assembly via the radio frequency link, the operation center including;
a database processing facility including a data storage device and a facility controller operatively coupled to the data storage device, the data storage device storing personal data associated with the registered user of the mobile transceiver assembly, the facility controller including a processor and a memory operatively coupled to the processor of the facility controller, the facility controller adapted to retrieve the personal data of the registered user in response to receipt of the emergency signal, an integrated phone-computer terminal operatively coupled to the facility controller, the integrated phone-computer terminal adapted to enable an operations center attendant to initiate an emergency response action in response to receipt of the emergency notification signal, and a communication interface operatively coupled to the data processing facility and the integrated phone-computer terminal, the communication interface adapted to enable communication between the integrated phone-computer terminal and the mobile transceiver assembly and emergency responders.

Abstract
The system and method for providing an emergency response via a wireless system disclosed herein. The system includes a mobile transceiver assembly having an emergency notification device and a location determination device, and an operations center operatively coupled to the mobile transceiver assembly via the radio frequency link. The method includes receiving a location of the mobile transceiver assembly, detecting actuation of an emergency notification device of the mobile transceiver assembly, causing an emergency notification signal to be transmitted to the facility controller, causing an identity and the location of the mobile transceiver assembly to be transmitted to the facility controller; and enabling an emergency response action to be initiated by an operations center attendant located at the operations center.
