Remote controlled animal training system with wireless communication system
First Claim
1. A system of producing a range of predetermined stimulus intensities for training an animal using a remote transmitter and a receiver carried on the animal, comprising:
- a wireless transmitter capable of transmitting a plurality of wireless signals non-concurrently, wherein each wireless signal of the plurality of wireless signals is representative of one of a plurality of predetermined stimulus levels;
a wireless receiver capable of receiving the wireless signal from the wireless transmitter;
a demodulator in communication with the wireless receiver, wherein demodulating the wireless signal produces a digital signal;
a microprocessor in communication with the demodulator for receiving the digital signal from the demodulator and producing a pulse signal therefrom; and
a first output device in communication with the microprocessor, whereby the first output device produces a stimulus of intensity relative to a characteristic of the pulse signal, wherein said first output device includes a transformer and a Zener or TVS diode.

Abstract
A remote controlled animal training system includes a wireless transmitter capable of transmitting a plurality of wireless signals non-concurrently. Each wireless signal of the plurality of signals is representative of one of a plurality of predetermined stimulus levels. A wireless receiver is capable of receiving the wireless signal from the transmitter. A demodulator is in communication with the RF receiver, demodulating the wireless signal to produce a digital signal. A microprocessor is in communication with the demodulator for receiving the digital signal from the demodulator and producing a pulse signal therefrom. A first output device is in communication with the microprocessor. The first output device produces a stimulus of intensity relative to a characteristic of the pulse signal.
