Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, pervasive reading of medical data from implanted devices is flawed, as the data alone is unlikely to be meaningful to an individual without the advice and interpretation of a medical professional
Furthermore, the ubiquity of reading medical data from implanted devices poses a significant security risk, since medical data is highly sensitive and involves significant privacy issues

Embodiment Construction

[0012] figure 1 A wireless communication system mobile station 10 is shown according to one embodiment. Mobile station 10 includes an RF transceiver 12 that complies with one or more industry standard wireless protocols, such as WCDMA, UTRAN, GSM, and the like. The RF transceiver 12 is connected to an external antenna 14 for wireless communication with a base station or network access point of a wireless communication system. A controller 16 connected to a memory 18 controls the operation of the mobile station 10 . Controller 16 may include a microprocessor or digital signal processor (DSP) executing software, custom hardware circuitry, or any combination of hardware and software as known in the art. User interface 20 includes a display, keypad, speaker, microphone, and other elements for enabling communication with an individual. Optionally, the mobile station 10 may include transceiver 22 and Antenna 24 (which may be deployed inside the mobile station 10 or incorporat...

Abstract

Implantable and / or wearable medical data acquisition devices (30) associated with an individual, each having NFC communication capability, collect medical data. Each device has a unique identifier. The medical data are read from the devices via a secure link by an NFC reader or transceiver in a wireless communication system mobile station (10) having a unique identifier. The medical data are selectively transmitted via a secure link from the mobile station to a Presence and Group Management (PGM) server (32, 34) configured to manage data services for medical groups. Secure access to the medical data by medical professionals is restricted accordingto a policy system (36). Encryption keys are managed on a group basis by a group key management server (32), assigning the medical data acquisition devices (30) and mobile station (10) to groups based ontheir unique identifiers. The PGM server (32, 34) may send alerts and / or information to the user via the mobile station (10).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to wireless communication, and more particularly to a wireless communication system mobile station with near field communication capabilities to collect medical data from implanted or wearable medical data acquisition devices. Background technique [0002] Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) devices are known in the art and are widely deployed as, for example, identification tags. In its simplest form, a passive RFID device consists of an RF antenna and simple electronic circuitry. The circuit is powered by a small current sensed in the antenna present in the RF carrier wave sent by the RFID reader. An RFID device transmits data, such as its unique identifier, by backscatter-modulating an RF carrier. The RFID reader detects the backscatter modulation and recovers the identifier sent by the RFID device. Such RFID "tags" are widely used in inventory control and supply chain management, and are expected to repl...
