The notification unit 209 includes, for each reception response device 201, for example, one LED and a buzzer, which are examples of a plurality of types of notification means, or three LEDs of different colors and two buzzers of different timbres. The specific configuration of the notification means provided in the notification unit 209 may be different for each reception response device 201.

  Moreover, the alerting | reporting part 209 is equipped with LED of three colors, red, blue, and green, and may be comprised so that seven colors can be light-emitted by combining light emission of each LED. In addition, the notification unit included in the notification unit 209 may be another notification unit such as an LED that is a light emitter and a buzzer that is a sound generator, for example, a vibrator that generates vibration. Alternatively, the notification unit 209 includes, for example, a speech synthesizer that synthesizes speech and a sound data storage unit that stores sound data such as alarm sound, music, and speech for speech synthesis by the speech synthesizer in advance in a ROM, for example. It may be provided.

  Next, the operation of the response request transmission apparatus 101 shown in FIG. 2 will be described. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of the table information 151 stored in the storage unit 105. The table information 151 shown in FIG. 4 includes a tag name 152 given to make it easy for the user to identify a plurality of reception response devices 201 used in the search system 1, and the reception response device 201 identified by each tag name 152. ID number 153 and a command 154 for causing the notification unit 209 included in each reception response device 201 to perform a notification operation. The table information 151 may be stored in the storage unit 105 in advance, or may be stored in the storage unit 105 when the user inputs it using the setting reception unit 103.

  First, the control unit 106 causes the display unit 102 to display the tag names 152 stored in the storage unit 105 in a list format. Then, for example, the user operates the cursor keys 131 and 132 to move the cursor to the tag name 152 of the reception response device 201 that the user wants to search from the list of tag names 152 displayed on the display unit 102, for example, “Tag 1”. When the cursor is placed and the selection key 133 is pressed, the setting reception unit 103 generates a signal indicating the tag name 152 “Tag No. 1” selected by the user, that is, a signal indicating the tag name 152 corresponding to the ID number 153. It is transmitted to the control unit 106. Then, the control unit 106 reads the ID number 153 and the command 154 stored in association with “Tag No. 1” from the storage unit 105.

  The command 154 is, for example, data of 8 bits b0 to b7. The bits b0 to b7 in the command 154 correspond to the notification unit 209 in each reception response device 201. For example, the bits b0, b1, and b2 correspond to the unillustrated LEDs 1, 2, and 3 of the notification unit 209, respectively. The bits b3, b4, b5, b6, and b7 are set so as to correspond to the buzzers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 (not shown) of the notification unit 209, respectively. The LEDs 1, 2, and 3 are set as a plurality of types of LEDs having different colors such as red, green, and blue, and the buzzers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are, for example, sound pitch (sound frequency). Are set as different types of buzzers.

  For example, when the notification unit 209 in “Tag No. 1” includes the LEDs 1 and 3 and the buzzer 2, for example, as illustrated in FIG. 5, the command 154 corresponding to “Tag No. 1” is Bits b0, b2, and b4 are set to “1” to turn on the LEDs 1 and 3 and the buzzer 2, that is, the command 154 is set to “00010101” (hexadecimal “15”).

  Next, the CRC calculation unit 107 calculates a CRC for the ID number 153 and the command 154 read from the storage unit 105. 6 is generated from the ID number 153 and the command 154 read from the storage unit 105 and the CRC 171 calculated by the CRC calculation unit 107, for example, and is transmitted to the transmission unit 108. Is output.

  A communication frame 161 shown in FIG. 6 is added with a preamble 162 for synchronization at the head, for example, and then an SFD (Start Frame Delimiter) 163 indicating the start of the communication frame, followed by, for example, a 32-bit ID number 153. For example, an 8-bit command 154, for example, a 16-bit CRC 171 is concatenated. The number of bits of the ID number 153, the command 154, and the CRC 171 may be the same as that of the reception response device 201, and is not limited to this example, for example, 32 bits.

  Next, the transmission unit 108 converts the communication frame 161 into a radio signal and emits it from the antenna 109 to the space.

  Next, the operation of the reception response device 201 shown in FIG. 3 will be described. First, a radio signal emitted from the antenna 109 in the response request transmission apparatus 101 to the space is received by the antenna 202 in the reception response apparatus 201, and the radio signal is demodulated into the communication frame 161 by the reception unit 203. The demodulated communication frame 161 is stored in the shift register 204 while being shifted bit by bit, and the CRC calculation unit 205 calculates the CRC.

  When the ID number 153 is stored in the shift register 204, the matching unit 207 compares the ID number 153 stored in the shift register 204 with the ID number of the reception response device 201 stored in the storage unit 206. A signal indicating the comparison result is transmitted to the control unit 208.

  Next, when the control unit 208 indicates that the signal from the matching unit 207 does not match, since the received communication frame 161 is not addressed to itself, the reception operation is interrupted, while the signal from the matching unit 207 indicates matching. Since the received communication frame 161 is addressed to itself, the reception operation is continued, the command 154 is stored in the shift register 204, the presence or absence of a data error is confirmed by the CRC calculation unit 205, and a signal indicating the confirmation result is controlled. Is transmitted to the unit 208.

  Next, when the signal from the CRC calculation unit 205 indicates that there is a data error, the control unit 208 interrupts the reception operation. On the other hand, when the signal from the CRC calculation unit 107 indicates that there is no data error, the control unit 208 executes the notification operation by the notification unit 209 based on the command 154 stored in the shift register 204. For example, if the command 154 stored in the shift register 204 is “00010101”, the bits b0, b2, and b4 are set to “1”, so that the LEDs 1 and 3 corresponding to the bits b0 and b2 are turned on. The buzzer 2 corresponding to the bit b4 is sounded while emitting purple light.

  Thereby, since the plurality of reception response devices 201 are identified by the ID number, it is easy to increase the number of wireless tags by using the reception response device 201 as a wireless tag. For example, if the ID number is 32 bits, the search system 1 can use 4,294,967,296 reception response devices 201 as wireless tags, and can easily increase the number of wireless tags. Become.

  In addition, in a search system according to the background art, in a wireless tag having a display device such as an LED, for example, if the wireless tag enters the blind spot of the user at the storage location of the search target, the wireless tag may be searched. However, it is difficult to accurately grasp the position of a wireless tag that emits sound with a buzzer. Therefore, it is conceivable that the wireless tag includes a plurality of types of notification units having different notification methods, for example, an LED and a buzzer, and performs a notification operation by emitting the LED and sounding the buzzer. Since it is necessary to transmit the command to turn on and the command to sound the buzzer, there is a disadvantage that the number of command transmissions increases and the current consumption of the transmitter and the wireless tag increases.

  On the other hand, in the search system 1 shown in FIG. 1, the response request transmission apparatus 101 can cause a plurality of types of notification units included in the reception response apparatus 201 to perform a notification operation by transmitting one command 154. When the response device 201 includes the LEDs 1, 3 and the buzzer 2 as a plurality of types of notification units, a plurality of commands such as a command for turning on the LED 1, a command for turning on the LED 3, and a command for sounding the buzzer 2 are transmitted. Since the transmission operation of the response request transmission apparatus 101 and the reception operation of the reception response apparatus 201 can be reduced as compared with the case where the command is transmitted once, the power consumption of the response request transmission apparatus 101 and the reception response apparatus 201 can be reduced. The battery life can be extended.

  Further, the response request transmitting apparatus 101 can cause the reception response apparatus 201 having different types of notification means, for example, LEDs having different colors, buzzers having different sounds, and the like to perform different types of notification operations. Thus, it becomes easy to distinguish and search the notification operation of the reception response device 201 that is the object of the search.

  FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram showing an application example in which the search system 1 shown in FIG. 1 is applied to shoe storage. For example, when a shoe is stored in a shoe box, the reception response device 201 is attached to the shoe and stored in the shoe box. When the user takes out the shoes and sets the search target ID number, for example, “1000” in the response request transmission apparatus 101 and presses the transmission button 104, the reception response apparatus 201 attached to the search target shoes is displayed. A predetermined color, for example, purple light is emitted, and a buzzer of a predetermined tone color sounds, so that a target shoe can be easily found.

  FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing an application example in which the search system 1 shown in FIG. 1 is applied to storing clothes. For example, when storing clothes in a hanger, the reception response device 201 is attached to the clothes and hung on the hanger. When the user sets a search target ID number, for example, “1000” in the response request transmission apparatus 101 when taking out clothes and presses the transmission button 104, the reception response apparatus 201 attached to the search target clothes is displayed. While emitting light with a predetermined color, a buzzer sounds with a predetermined tone color, and the desired clothes can be easily found.

  The storage unit 105 may be configured to store the CRC 171 calculated in advance in association with the ID number 153, for example, as the table information 151a illustrated in FIG. In this case, since the control unit 106 can generate the communication frame 161 using the ID number 153, the command 154, and the CRC 171 stored in the storage unit 105, the CRC calculation unit 107 is unnecessary and the circuit is simplified. Can be

  Further, as shown in FIG. 10, a command setting reception unit 112 including, for example, a dip switch, a key switch, or the like may be provided so that the user can set a command 154 using the command setting reception unit 112. Thereby, the notification operation set by the user can be performed by the plurality of notification means of the notification unit 209 provided in the reception response device 201 for search.

  Further, when the notification unit 209 includes, for example, an unillustrated speech synthesizer for synthesizing speech and an unillustrated sound data storage unit that stores sound data for speech synthesis by the speech synthesizer, for example, FIG. As shown, the bits b3 to b7 in the command 154 may be used as the address 155 of the sound data stored in the sound data storage unit. Thereby, since the state of each bit in the command 154 can be used as an address, the types of operations that can be instructed to a plurality of notification means in the notification unit 209 using the command 154 can be increased.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 12, if the command 154 is 8 bits, for example, the bit pattern 00000000 (Hex00, hereinafter, Hex represents a hexadecimal number) of the command 154 that can be set using the command setting reception unit 112. It is also possible to store 256 types of bit patterns of 11111111 (HexFF) and CRCs calculated in advance for the ID numbers 153 of the reception response devices 201 in the storage unit 105 as table information 151b. Accordingly, even when the user sets the command 154 using the command setting reception unit 112, the control unit 106 can generate the communication frame 161 using the CRC stored in the storage unit 105. The calculation unit 107 is not necessary, and the circuit can be simplified.

  In this case, for example, as shown in FIG. 12, for the table information 151b, the address of the storage unit 105 in which the bit pattern of the command 154 set using the command setting reception unit 112 becomes the lower 8 bits corresponds to the command 154. If the CRC is stored, the control unit 106 uses the bit pattern of the command 154 set by using the command setting reception unit 112 for the ID number 153 of the reception response device 201 to be searched as the lower 8 bits, and sets the address of the storage unit 105. By generating, a CRC corresponding to the command 154 set using the command setting receiving unit 112 can be acquired.

It is an interface circuit that makes possible. Specifically, for example, the input / output signal of the control unit 106 can be input / output by the external interface unit 302 such as serial conversion, signal level conversion, data bus width conversion, timing adjustment, etc. Any signal format can be used.

  The mobile phone 301 includes a human interface unit such as a liquid crystal display 303 and a key switch 304. The control unit 106 controls to display the tag name 152 and the cursor on the mobile phone 301 via the mobile phone interface unit 111 and the external interface unit 302 instead of displaying the tag name 152 and the cursor on the display unit 102. While the signal is output, the mobile phone 301 includes the mobile phone interface unit 111 and the external interface unit 302 instead of receiving a signal indicating the tag name 152 of the reception response device 201 to be searched from the setting reception unit 103. A signal indicating the tag name 152 of the reception response device 201 to be searched is received from the key switch 304.

Also good.

  Next, the mobile phone 301 executes a mobile phone control program, whereby the tag names 152 stored in the storage unit 105 are displayed on the liquid crystal display 303 in a list format. Then, for example, the user operates the key switch 304 to move the cursor, and the cursor is moved to the tag name 152 of the reception response device 201 to be searched from the list of tag names 152 displayed on the liquid crystal display 303, for example, “Tag No. 1”. When the selection operation is performed using the key switch 304, a signal indicating the tag name 152 “Tag No. 1” selected by the user, that is, the tag name 152 corresponding to the ID number 153 is displayed by the mobile phone 301. A signal to be shown is transmitted to the mobile phone interface unit 111 via the external interface unit 302.

  Then, the signal indicating the tag name 152 received by the key switch 304 is converted into a signal format that can be received by the control unit 106 in the response request transmitting apparatus 101 a by the mobile phone interface unit 111 and transmitted to the control unit 106. . Then, based on the signal indicating the tag name 152, the control unit 106 reads the ID number 153 and the command 154 stored in association with the tag name 152 by the storage unit 105.
