Patent Images
1. A transmitter-receiver emergency signalling device, the transmitter of which may be carried on the person, comprising:
- (a) means for generating a system address pulse train of a fixed number of pulses, the width of each pulse being determined by whether or not the pulse represents a "one" or a "zero;
"(b) means for setting the pulse width of the pulses in the pulse train and thereby determining the system address;
(c) radio frequency transmission means the carrier signal of which is modulated by the pulse train;
(d) a radio frequency receiver means responsive to the transmitted signal;
(e) means for determing that each of the fixed number of pulses in the pulse train have been received;
(f) address decoding means adapted to receive the pulse train and compare an address received with the system address; and
(g) an alarm responsive to a comparison of the received address and the system address.
