Abstract

The present invention discloses an intertalk wristband RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tag, which applies to any type of wireless automatic wristband RFID system and comprises an RFID system, an audio-receiving system, and an audio-outputting system. The present invention utilizes the RFID system to receive and transmits the audio information-bearing signal and the radio frequency signal to implement a bidirectional communication function. Via the bidirectional communication function, the nursed in an emergency can press an intertalk button to talk with the nursing personnel and ask for rescue.

Claims

1. An intertalk wristband radio frequency identification tag, which applies to a wireless automatic wristband radio frequency identification system and comprises:

a radio frequency identification system;

a switch coupled to said radio frequency identification system;

an audio-receiving system controlled by said switch to receive an audio signal and modulate said audio signal into oscillation frequency, which is then transmitted out by said radio frequency identification system; and

an audio-outputting system controlled by said switch to receive an external audio information-bearing signal via said radio frequency identification system and demodulate said audio information-bearing signal into audio frequency and display audio information.

2. The intertalk wristband radio frequency identification tag according to claim 1, wherein said radio frequency identification system further comprises:

a microprocessor coupled to said switch and processing signal;

a memory coupled to said microprocessor and storing identification information; and

a radio frequency module coupled to said microprocessor and said switch, receiving and modulating a signal output by said microprocessor or said memory, receiving and demodulating an external signal, and transmitting the demodulated signal to said microprocessor or said memory.

3. The intertalk wristband radio frequency identification tag according to claim 1, wherein said audio-receiving system further comprises:

a microphone receiving said audio signal;

a modulator receiving said audio signal from said microphone and modulating said audio signal into oscillation frequency; and

a high-frequency transceiver receiving said oscillation frequency from said modulator and transmitting said oscillation frequency via said radio frequency identification system.

4. The intertalk wristband radio frequency identification tag according to claim 1, wherein said audio-outputting system further comprises:

a high-frequency transceiver receiving said external audio information-bearing signal via said radio frequency identification system;

a demodulator plus an audio frequency amplifier demodulating said audio information-bearing signal into audio frequency; and

a speaker displaying audio information.
