Abstract
A system includes bio-medical units, a wireless communication module, and a wireless power source. A bio-medical unit includes a power harvesting module, a communication module, a processing module, and a medication control module for performing a medication control function and generating a medication response. The wireless communication module is operable to wirelessly communicate inbound and outbound wireless signals with the bio-medical unit. The wireless power source is operable to generate the electromagnetic signal, which the power harvesting module converts into a supply voltage that powers the other modules of the bio-medical unit.

11. A bio-medical application for execution by a wireless communication device that includes a processing module and memory, wherein the memory stores the bio-medical application in a computer readable format, the bio-medical application comprises operational instructions that, when executed by the processing module, causes the wireless communication device to:
-
generate a medication control function; convert the medication control function into a wireless control signal; transmit the wireless control signal to one or more bio-medical units, wherein at least one of the one or more bio-medical units; recaptures the medication control function from the wireless control signal; performs the medication control function; generates the medication response in response to performing the medication control function; and converts the medication response into a wireless response signal; receive the wireless response signal; and recapture the medication response from the wireless response signal. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
