Wireless communication system
First Claim
1. A wireless communication system comprising:
- a first device having a communications control circuit configured to initiate transmission of a wireless communication signal and a wireless communication circuit coupled to the communications control circuit, anda second device having a communication interface circuit coupled to a data interface circuit, the communication interface circuit responsive to the wireless communication signal to convert at least a portion of the wireless communication signal to a command signal, the command signal corresponding to one of a command to provide information carried by the wireless communication signal to the data interface circuit and a command to receive information specified by the wireless communication signal from the data interface circuit, wherein, if the command signal corresponds to a command to receive information specified by the wireless communication signal from the data interface circuit, the communication interface circuit is configured to receive the information specified by the wireless communication signal from the data interface circuit and transmit the received information back to the first device,wherein the communications control circuit controls all wireless communication between the first and second devices via control of the wireless communication circuit,and wherein the wireless communication circuit includes a first wireless interface and the communication interface circuit includes a second wireless interface,and wherein the wireless communication between the first and second devices occurs via a wireless communication path established between the first and second wireless interfaces.

Abstract
A wireless communication system includes a first device having a communications control circuit configured to initiate transmission of a wireless communication signal, and a second device including a communication interface circuit and a number of other circuits. The communication interface circuit may be responsive to the wireless communication signal to provide information carried by the wireless communication signal to at least one of the other circuits. Alternatively or additionally, the communication interface circuit may be responsive to the wireless communication signal to receive information specified by the wireless communication signal from at least one of the other circuits and to transmit another wireless communication signal carrying the retrieved information back to the first device. In either case, the communication interface circuit is unresponsive to control thereof by any of the number of other circuits. The communications control circuit controls all wireless communication between the first and second devices.
