BACKGROUND ART Wrist watches are commonly known to provide the basic funct ion of time keeping. Modern wrist watches have a number of extra functions that make them more than just a time piece. la It has long been desired to make a wrist watch that provides a two-way communication function, but it is difficult to build one in practice. One of the challenges involved in producing such a wrist watch is the difficulty of reducing the size of the electronic components to fit them within a housing that is wearable by a person on the wrist. Typically the dimension of a wearable wrist watch is is 50 x 60 x 15 mm which is much smaller than that of a typical mobile phone which is around 100 x 60 x 15 mm, or larger. It is known to provide a wrist mounted mobile telephone watch, such as that shown in US 6567523 which describes a wrist mounted telephone device having a watch unit and telephone unit. However, this device has the telephone unit separate 2o from the time unit, where each of the units has its own housing. As a result, there are many different parts in the watch and it is not convenient to use, or to wear. It would also be desirable to provide a wrist watch phone that ameliorates or overcomes one or more of the disadvantages of such devices or that may provide a useful alternative to these devices.

BEST MODES FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Referring to Figures I to 20, the invention provides a wrist watch phone (9) 15 wearable by a person. Preferably, the wrist watch has a size of about 50 x 60 x 15 mm which is smaller than that of a typical mobile phone. Referring to Figures I to 2, the wrist watch phone has a housing (10) that includes a display (16) that is connected to a communication module (18). The front shell (12) of the housing (10) and the back shell (14) of the housing enclose the display (16) and the 20 communication module (18). The wrist watch phone has straps (11) or sone other suitable form of watch band for fastening around a wrist of a person. Preferably, the watch phone includes some sort of watch band, but it may be provided or sold without one, so that the users can add their own watch band later. The communication module (18) is able to operate under the Global System for 25 Mobile communications (GSM) telephone networks. The GSM telephone network is commonly used for mobile telephone communication and normally operates over one or more of four frequency ranges, such as the frequency bands of 850MHz, 900M Hz, 7 1800MHz and 1900MHz, depending on thc system adopted by a particular country. Different countries may have different operation bands. Traditionally, mobile phones only support one frequency hand for communication. However, some countries use two frequency bands to provide a better s coverage of the mobile networks, and therefore some mobile phones are designed to support two bands. This type of mobile phones is known as a "dual band" mobile phone. Mobile phones that support three bands are known as "tri band" mobile phones and mobile phones that support four bands are known as "quad band" mobile phones. The communication module (18) has a customized Printed Circuit Board (PCB) 1c (19) to accommodate all the electronics for supporting four or more different GSM frequency bands communication as well as a number of 3G frequency bands including 806 to 890 MHz. 1710 to 1885 MHz and 1901 to 2200MT1z. Below is a table showing an example of the operational GSM frequency bands of a watch phone.

The PCB contains multiply layers of circuits and in a prefer-ed embodiment, may have ten different layers of circuit etched on the PCB. As a result, it is possible to share the components between the different 5 standards for supporting all different bands. Figures I1 to 20 show the circuit layouts of all the layers of the circuit board. The electronic components of the watch phone utilises all these ten layers of circuit board such that the communication module (18) may work across all the different frequency bands. Referring to Figures 9 and 10, which are schematic diagrams of the communication 10 module (18), the PCB includes a Radio Frequency (RF) module and a baseband module (30). As shown in Figure 6, the RF module consists of a transmitter / receiver (T/R) assembly (22), RF Surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters (23), a transceiver (24), an amplifier (25). In receiving mode, the T/R assembly has an antenna and a T/R switch for receiving 15 signals from the GSM network. The signals are then passed to the SAW filter (23), and the transceiver (24) for down-converting. The transceiver converts the signals to data for further processing in the baseband module (30). In transmitting mode, the data is passed to the transceiver (24) to generate the necessary R/F signals. The R/F signals are then passed to the amphfher (25) which 20 magnifies the signals to the power level within the burst ramping mask. The magnified signals are then transmitted to the GSM network through the antenna. The baseband module (30) controls all the functions of the watch except for the transmitting and receiving signals, which is controlled by the RF module. It accepts the data down-converted from the transceiver and further processes it and distributes it to the 25 designated devices of the watch. It is also responsible for receiving input from those devices, processing them and pushing the data to the RF module for sending. In this embodiment, the baseband module, as shown in Figure 7, is designed to send data to and receive data from: a USB device (34), an I/O device (35), a keypad 9 (36), a Bluetooth device (37), a Real Time Clock (RTC) (38), a Time Stamp Counter (TSC) (39), a microphone (53), a headset receiver (54), a headset microphone (55), a system clock (56), a display interface (57) and a camera (58). Other devices known to be used in typical digital watches may also be incorporated in this watch phone. These 5 devices are included to enhance the functions of the watch phone. A Subscriber Identity Mobile (SIM) Card, if there is one needed, may be inserted into the watch through the SIM card interface (72). The baseband module also connects to a controller (31) for interfacing with the SIM card (32). The SIM card stores the information for connecting to the GSM or 30 telephone networks. It is also able to store 10 other information of the user such as telephone numbers or text messages depending on the size of the memory of the SIM card. The baseband module also controls the memory for storing data in the watch. The memory in this preferred embodiment may be a NorFlash memory (33). The memory is used for storing firmware and drivers for the watch. 15 The baseband module is also responsible for collecting status information from a power supply system (40). The power supply system may have a rechargeable battery (42), which may connect to a charger (43), a LED (44) for indicating the power status and preferably a vibrator (41). The power supply system is controlled by a controller (41). 1t determines and indicates the power on/off status, tle charging status and the power level. 20 It also controls the vibrating function of the watch. In the embodiment the controller (31) for the SIM card and the controller (41) for the power supply system are integrated in one single chip. Referring to Figures 9 and 10, the watch may also have a number of interfaces for connecting external devices. Those interfaces include US3 interface (72). a power supply 25 socket (76), a microphone socket (75) and a headphone socket (75). The wrist watch phone includes a display (16) for interfacing with the user, The display is typically a 16bit OLED display having enough capacity to display around 65K of different colours. The display may be in the form of Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display (TFTLCD), touch screen or LCD made of glass or plastic.
10 The display is the ain visual output of the wrist watch mobile phone. V provides various graphic user interfaces (GUI) to show the time as well as the mobile phone interface, including. for example, a dialling keypad display. an address book, an email client, cle. The display is preferably in the form of a touch screen, such that it can be used to accept input from the user. The display is 5 used to show all of the functions typically used with a Iobile telephone, and wrist watch, Preferably, these functions are accessible by the users through the GUI presented on the display of the watch phone. Typically only a subset of these functions appears on the display at any oTe time. A user may navigate through the GUI such as menu or icons to switch to d: fierent functions. The housing (10) of the watch, also known as the watch "shell", enclosci all the electronic 10 components of the communication module and the time piece. As mentioned above, the size of the housing is generally smaller than that of a typical mobile phone such that it is suitable to be worn on the wrist. There may be one or more buttons located on the housing, preferably at the front or side of the housing for a user to activate certain functions of the watch. The wrist watch phone may have watch straps (11) for fastening the watch around the wrist. 15 The watch straps can be made of different variety of materials, such as, leather, metal, sponge, plastic or other materials, or mixtures of those known to be used with watch bands. The strap may be expendable to fit over the hand or else, it may have a fastening capable of opening and closing for wearing. The wrist watch phone may also include an internal antenna. (15) as shown in Figures 2 to 20 5. Typical antennas for GSM telephone networks are relatively large and cumbersome compared to the size of a wrist watch. In one preferred embodiment, the size of the internal antenna (15) is reduced to fit inside the housing of the watch. The internal antenna (15) of one preferred embodiment is embedded entirely inside the housing and it supports the transmission and reception of the GSM requency bands mentioned above. 25 Referring to Figures 2 and 3, the internal antenna (15) is substantially in sheet fonn. In one preferred embodiment, the antenna (15) is substantially flat with a bent near one or more of the edges of the planar body. Preferably, the sheet form internal antenna is made of copper and plastic. This sheet form antenna will operate optimally with a housing (10) made of titanium and non inctal materials such as stainless steel, plastics, polycarbonate plastics, resin, glass or ceramic as 30 disclosed in the prior art document AU 2006203911 and AL] 2007904058, both of which were flIed by the inventor.

In another embodimn. the wrist wach phone may mnlude a Global Pos;ning System (GP'S) module. TheC PS may be used to determine the Iocation oL' the wearer and this may also be used for trackinig the location of the wcarer. For example. a child may wear this watch with the S GIS flun ion enabled: i tie child wanders outside school or home. the watch may be able to detect that ad then send an e-mail or SMS to the parent to notify them o C the child s whereabouts The parent nay then telephome the child via the wrist watch mobile phone When the wrist watch phone is used for tracking a person, it may be desirable to lock the watch around a person's wrist such a way that it is not easy to remove the watch. One way to lock the watch to a person is provide a security encryption device for securely locking the wrist watch around a wrist. The security encryption device may only then be 5 unlocked by sending a digital key to the watch via the communication device. In this way, it is possible to unlock or re-lock the watch remotely. A remote signalling device may be used for sending out the key to lock or unlock the security encryption device through the GSM network. Referring to Figure 8, which shows the software architecture (60) of the watch, the 10 wrist watch phone may has a software operating system to interface with the hardware. The operating system has a Nucleus OS (61) for supporting the basic functions of an embedded system, these functions include file 1/0, bus 1/0, etc. In addition to the Nucleus OS, there may be a number of protocol stack layers (62 and 64) for handing digital signals processing of the mobile communications. Each of the 15 stack layers may have one or more processing functions to control or map the data between logical and physical channels: There are also a number of device drivers (63), each of which is designed to provide control for one or more hardware components. There may be device drivers for the SIM module, Real Time Clock (RTC), Keypad, etc. With the device drivers, it is possible to create a program to control the devices connecting to 20 the baseband module. The protocol stack layers and device drivers only provide basic programming interfaces controlling a hardware component and these basic programming interfaces provide very limited functions. Typically, so as to make the software programming iore user friendly, there may be a Man to Machine Interface (MMI) layer (65) 25 centralising all the functions provide by the protocol stack layers and device drivers. Then MMI provides a set of Application Programming Interfaces (API) that arc compatible to a high level computer languages such as JAVA (67), WAP (68), etc, such that developers may able to create new applications or update existing applications for the wrist watch mobile phone. The watch may then download new applications and 30 updates and run them. As a result, the functions of the watch may be cariched as more applications become available. The manufacturer may also provide updates to the 13 firmware to the watch. With the API provided, the wrist watch phonc may optimise its performance with new application updates. In another embodiment, the battery usage is miamised by reducing the display of unnecessary graphics, In the drawings, the list of parts is shown in the following table. for one preferred embodiment of the wrist watch phone.
