发明名称 Method and apparatus for tracking a patient
摘要 A system for monitoring a person in a secured zone is disclosed. One or more transmitters transmit a first signal into the zone. The person wears a tag that receives the first signal. The tag transmits a second signal that is responsive to the first signal. A receiver receives the second signal and provides a third signal responsive to the first signal. A controller is connected to the receiver and includes a discrimination circuit that determines if the third signal is responsive to the first signal. The controller provides an alarm signal if responsiveness is found. The responsiveness may be a constant phase relationship, and data may be transmitted by the tag at a frequency derived from the first frequency. A three loop antenna, with each loop disposed in a unique plane is described. Each unique plane is substantially perpendicular to the other unique planes, in another embodiment. The tag includes a band removal circuit that senses the skin resistivity of the patient in another embodiment. The tag may also include a chest band that senses the respiration of the patient. The tag includes a power circuit that reduces power consumption in the event the second signal is not being transmitted.
