Definitions

  • the wireless communication system 30 passes the data to a wired communication network 35, such as the Internet, with which the ASP 200 is in communication.
  • a wired communication network 35 such as the Internet
  • the communication system 30 and communication network 35 provide for two-way communication between the Device 100 and ASP 200.
  • the third functional area ofthe PD 300 contains tables associated with alert threshold values for determining whether or not to issue alerts, alerts for the threshold values and logical rules to combine threshold values. It will be appreciated that PD 300 allows for the flexible setting of both simple and complex alert thresholds. More specifically, the present embodiment stores both raw alert threshold values for triggering a response from the ASP 200, and tables for combining and associating individual threshold values into potentially complex alert threshold rules to determine if an actual alert has occurred. These rules and values are stored in the PD 300 in a flexible manner that allows extensive alert profiles to be built and maintained in the PD 300 for each Device 100 without any modification ofthe database structure.
  • Threshold Table which associates specified alert thresholds with specific Alert Devices. For example, in the Alzheimer patient application, the system can be directed to notify the patient's son at his pager if the location exceeds a specified distance from a central point or his cellular telephone if the patient's temperature exceeds the threshold.
  • the Alert Device Threshold Table is also linked to the Alert Device Table, previously described, through the Alert Device ID, thereby associating an Alert Device with an alert threshold. [0085]
  • the Alert Threshold ID links the Alert Threshold Table to the Alert Threshold
  • the reference value is used only for the location/position parameter and indicates the longitude and latitude ordered pair ofthe center ofthe radius threshold.
  • Each record in the Alert Parameters Threshold Table also includes a device parameters ID, which links the table to the Device Parameters Table.
  • the Notification Type Table in the PD 300 contains descriptions ofthe various types of notifications that can be sent by the Notification Service, as described below.
  • the ASP 200 preferably also includes an independent Master Database that is generally used for system- wide tracking of activity and system maintenance.
  • the Master Database may contain the following exemplary tables.
  • An Activity Log Table that records system-wide data activity and stores it for use in detecting and correcting system problems.
  • a Current Database Table is used to record the current version ofthe Master Database that is in use.
  • a Primary Keys Table in the Master Database is used to track all the tables in the Master Database and the last ID that was assigned in each ofthe tables.
  • An Alert Device Table in the Master Database associates particular alert devices with notifications of system problems.
  • Non- Alert and Alert Notification Queues in the Middle Tier 400 accesses the Notification Type Table and Notification Table in the PD 300, previously described, and generates notification alerts to users 25 whenever alarms are triggered by the system and to system administration wherever errors are detected. Notification alerts are sent to users 25 via Alert Devices.
  • various other Middle Tier 400 components may determine a notification needs to be sent, in which case such other components create an XML document specifying the required notification and places it in the appropriate Notify Queue.
  • the Middle Tier 400 also includes various queues, which are accessed by the various services and are preferably implemented using Microsoft Message Queuing or similar technology. As such, each entry in the queues is preferably and XML document containing the data or parameters to be utilized by the particular service accessing the queue. As will be appreciated based on the description herein, by posting the service parameters to the queues, allows the services can operate asynchronously.
  • FIG. 11 illustrates a similar exemplary scenario in which the Device 100 transmits a Falling Down Alarm Message (No. 11), and resends the message until an acknowledgement message (No. 6) is received from the ASP 200. If no acknowledgement is received, the Device 100 continues to resend the alarm for a predetermined time period or number of times, at which point the alarm times out.
  • the Middle Tier then causes the registration information to be presented to the end user.
  • Step 512 the registration is presented to the end user in the form of a web page, email, or a personal conversation with a call center representative.
  • Such presentation ofthe registration information is achieved by entering the XML document in the Non- Alert Notify Queue and having the notification servers generate and direct the message as appropriate.
  • presentation ofthe registration information includes highlighting questionable parameters selected by the end user. More specifically, the Middle Tier compares the received alert parameters with the default parameters stored in the device parameters table to determine whether or not the end user's selections are within the range of permissible parameters defined in the table.
  • the ASP 200 receives the device message and the Data Monitor Service 445 creates an XML entry in the Non- Alert or Alert Queue, for non-alert data or alert data, respectively.
  • the XML entry includes the device ID and other device data.
  • the Data Processor Service 455 then creates an XML document in either the Non- Alert Notify Queue or Alert Notify Queue, respectively.
  • the Notification Service 465 generates the corresponding messages to the end user 25.
  • the Notification Service creates a record in the Notification Table, the existence of which indicates an active alert message for which a user acknowledgement is awaited. If no acknowledgement is received, the Notification Service 465 resends the alert message according to the Alert Device and Device Alert Device Tables (e.g., priority of Alert Devices).
  • Device 1120 is in two-way wireless communication with Application Service
  • parent 1340 could request such information from ASP 1280.
  • information could be derived from the GPS data received by device 1120 and transmitted to ASP 1280.
  • Such capabilities would also be available to authorized school officials at school 1320.
  • various security precautions would need to be incorporated in the system to ensure that only authorized individuals have access to such personal information.
  • the system ofthe present invention will bring great peace of mind to parents and school officials as a convenient and inexpensive system for tracking and locating students in a real time fashion.
  • the analysis performed by the ASP may, in alternate embodiments, be performed or partly performed by the belt unit.
  • the belt unit may include a microprocessor programmed to detect the transition between the positive EEG signal and negative EEG signal and, based thereon, transmit a signal to the ASP.
  • the belt unit not only senses the transition between the wake state and sleep state, but also automatically provides waking stimulus via a waking device.
  • the device ofthe present invention may also include a power source, such as a solar powered self-charging battery, a multi-channel A/D converter, and a microprocessor.
  • the battery can be used to power the various components ofthe device such as the GPS receiver and the microprocessor.
  • the A/D converter can be used to convert the sensor data for transmission by the transceiver, and can also be used to convert data receiver from the transceiver to the sensor.
  • the microprocessor may be, for example, a MEM or ASIC based DSP, for storing the sensor data and/or the position data for transmitting by the transceiver.
  • the foregoing embodiments may utilize any number of different antennae.
  • the antennae used in the foregoing embodiments efficiently and effectively receive the location signals, such as GPS signals, and receive and transmit the wireless communication signals, such as cellular telephony signals, without interfering with one another. Furthermore, it has been found that effective antenna designs are those capable of receiving a wide frequency band, providing for a high level of magnetic flux concentration, and providing for a low capacitance to enable easy tuning. [00297] A preferred basic operation ofthe device will now be described.
  • the receiver on the device is in one-way communication with the GPS satellite system and receives position data from the GPS satellites.
  • the sensor receives data regarding a particular parameter ofthe object wished to be monitored.
  • the positioning information and the output from the sensors are transmitted to a control center wirelessly via an antenna or in a direct wire-to-wire connection (not shown).
