MOBILE PHONE COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM WITH INCREASED FUNCTIONALITY

Abstract: The invention relates to a mobile telephone and a smart card transaction system in combination, where the functionality of a mobile telephone is increased so that the phone can be used in a large range of transactions for which smart cards are normally used. The phone may also be provided with a slot to receive smart cards and re-charge them with funds for cashless transactions, by communicating with a bank account or the like.

Description: Mobile Phone Communications System with Increased Functionality Whereas the mobile phone market remains buoyant it may win additional patronage if the communication system and its devices could relate to the frequently arising need to interact with a smart card terminal, be it to execute a purchase or to verify a right to access a predefined service, or for some other function. However, standard VHF antennas are almost useless to meet the condition for a transactional data transfer: It is and must remain a bilateral process . Radio antennas radiate into all directions, and can also receive from all directions. The present invention has as an objective, the modification of a mobile telephone to increase its functionality. The modified telephone may be used in e.g. point of sale and access control transactions. GB 2321551 discloses power transfer using a twin-loop antenna configuration capable to operate in-phase and in anti-phase. The adaptation of the principle to mobile phones makes extra demands and calls for additional inventive effort. For example, if the particulars of a travel entitlement, or of a routing instruction have to be surveyed quickly, the display area needs to be larger than that normally provided by a mobile phone device. Again, this objective must be attained without making the "pocket size data carrier" clumsy to use. It will be seen from the description that various modes are feasible. In the foreground are concepts for dividing the device into two parts linked by a hinge or a piece of flexible material as disclosed in GB 2348521.

Figure 9 gives details, including a trigger electrode as used in a modified LED diode. Fig. 10 shows a grid of tiny LED diodes each measuring only 0.65 x 0-65 mm. Fig. 11 provides an idea of the way in which the data are processed in order to obtain a meaningful display. Fig. 12 shows how the dual loop antenna connects to the computer chip, and to the display drive circuits. Fig. 13 shows a detail in connection with FIGURE 14, namely how the data input received by a mobile phone antenna is converted into the signal form which a contactless mart card is capable of receiving during an update of the contact-less card when placed into a slot in a mobile phone device. Fig. 14, 15 and 16 provide views of a proposed mobile phone such as may mainly be used for data transmission and for updating a contact-less card, but occasionally does require direct audio communication before or after text transmission. Fig. 1 is a device such as disclosed in GB 2348521, and is largely self-explanatory, providing the starting point from which Figs. 2 and 3 were developed. Fig. 2 shows the "travel pass" in its folded condition. It should be said in passing that in this condition the data carrier can carry out purchase or access functions in transactions with a contact-less terminal. There is no need to unfold the device as shown in Figure 3 , except when the details of a transaction are to be viewed. The actual detailed execution of the electrical connections between the device memory and the display will depend to a large extent on the display technology selected and whether the display is intended for alphanumeric readout, or has to include graphic material, as well as parts of road maps, geography of a building etc. Furthermore, it will depend on the precise nature of the contactless interface with a card reader. One specific example will now be described with reference to figures 2 and 3. The flexible connection strip extends over the full vertical dimension of parts 1 and 2, and also serves as the means for holding these two parts together, either alone or in combination with a conventional hinge as shown in Fig. 1. Figures 2 and 2a represent the front and side views of the folded 'travel pass'. From the side view (seen from A-A) it is clear that the flexible cover 18 extends over the width of part 1 and of part 2. The two parts are latched in the closed position by means of spring-loaded steel balls 20,21 although any other form of latching could be used. As shown, the metal balls 20,21 are at the end of hardened springy wire portions 20a, 21a respectively. These are laid into recesses of the plates 1,2 respectively, allowing them sufficient play so that the metal balls can be elastically displaced during latching. Lines lz, 2z indicate an alternative form such that the metal balls are supported, preventing slippage . Figures 2a and 3a are respective side views seen from A- A, and B-B respectively. The rigid portions, the keyboard part 1 and the display part 2, are covered by and bonded to a flexible quasi-fabric sheet 18 into which are embedded thin metal alloy wires. These wires connect the electronics of the two parts. THIS will be explained in conjunction with a specific example in connection with figures 6 to 12. It remains to explain the functions of the keyboard buttons. - On the far upper left, there are two keys marked pr and bu. By means of these, the user may quickly enter a flag concerning any purchase he/she makes as being either private (pr) or business-related (bu) . One of the programs permits the display of all the business expenses of the day, another all the private expenses of the day. other programs allow the categorisation of the expenses if a further brake down is required. In a business context, these categories will apply to all employees but may also be adapted to more individual requirements. The keys marked alpha, beta, gamma produce totals of discounts saved with three Stores named alpha, beta, gamma (see also the document W093/02430) . A thin card-like battery 17 can be of the replaceable or re-chargeable type. Because of the use of a dual-loop antenna which is capable of receiving considerably more power than the plain radio-type antenna, it is feasible that the battery will serve as an energy buffer and equaliser, and would not require external recharging. In other words, the topping-up battery may become a permanent or semi-permanent part of the device. There is also the possibility of mounting most, if not all of the display electronics on the flexible carrier sheet 18. This would be facilitated if this sheet consisted of several distinct layers . Flow solder jointing of pads on different surfaces can be utilized for joining the connector pads. Turning now to Fig. 6, item 30 symbolises an LED cell or pixel such as is here proposed might be developed to produce a luminous display with a minimum of control electronics. The idea is to aim at the development of a light emitting diode which can be kept alight at a voltage considerably lower than the initial or trigger voltage. This is illustrated in Fig. 7. In terms of an inner resistance R (see/Fig. 8) , it remains relatively big until the voltage reaches a trigger level. After that, the internal resistance drops considerably. To those who are experts in semiconductors, a solution for producing such a diode is likely to occur. One suggestion I have is to incorporate photo-electric components into the LED structure. After the diode's conductivity is triggered, the diode emits light, and in emitting light it would reduce its internal resistance further because of the presence of photo-electric components or atom combinations, and thus the condition of light generation would tend to become permanent at the lower voltage level. However, as and when the switch 23 substitutes the negative connection by a positive connection (Fig. 6) , the diode relapses into its original state. This switch 23, therefore, when applied to all the diodes of the display, will darken the picture in preparation for the next scanning frame. If the change-over is fast enough (about 20 times a second) it would be possible to use the same technique for the generation of moving displays. The described property of the diode would thus be desirable. Using such a diode 30 in Figure 9, it has now a square shape with embedded electrodes + and -, and an additional small electrode tr, the trigger electrode. Normally, there is applied a voltage differential across the main diode electrodes which is too low to light the LED. The non-inverting amplifier 31 produces a floating output or rather no output at all to the trigger electrode tr, except the enable input 'e' is high. Then, the diode flares up and, because of the designed condition, remains alight. The said enable input becomes high only at the moment when the two scanning counters provide a pulse to the AND gates 19 row and 22 col, and in addition there is also a high data pulse (derived from the microprocessor driven by the antenna, or by a program register, that must be high at the very same pulse-moment. If therefore the data pulse is missing, no pulse will reach the enable point 'e', and the LED pixel concerned remains dark. For those LEDs which do receive the treble pulse simultaneously, the LED pixel will light up and remain so, until the general display-RESET switch 23 is activated. THIS can be either a manual switch or part of the general program to be displayed. Figure 10 is a presentation of the square diodes (LEDs) as seen about forty times enlarged on a substrate, on which there are also deposited the plus and minus rails 14 and 15 alternating and indications of the aforementioned AND gates and the trigger electrodes tr. In the opinion of the author, it should be possible to generate this relatively simple and repetitive structure on the basis of integration techniques already available, in order to produce this type of display fairly inexpensively. This would be the objective of further development work. Figure 11 shows the arrangements of the Johnson Scanners 9-row and 19-col once more to the left and to the top of the Display Area on a larger scale. These components are placed on the rigid substrate 2 behind which the flexible connector fabric 18 is bonded on. FIGURE 12 shows once more the dual loop antenna 11 with its two central links 11a which converge to power up the silicon chip 12, and also receives the modulated data bits. These are demodulated in the chip circuit and H α. ω ςj Q- H © © O LΩ o o o τ-i en en The invention is preferably in the form of a mobile phone that fits into a shirt pocket or the like and that can double as a 'travel pass' with all the transactional and informational capabilities described in the above mentioned patent and application. This aspect of the invention also provides the mobile phone with the capability of updating a contactless card. Figure 13 explains how the mobile phone antenna 40 is connected to an HF diode detector 43 and, via a filter stage 44,45 to the gate of a transistor 46. The same is also connected to an oscillator 47 generating oscillations at one of the standard frequencies for contactless cards, say 13.56 Megahertz. If the amplitude modulation of the carrier wave is adequate, bursts of power representing binary data at the above named frequency will be applied to the wire loop 50 supplementarily tuned by a capacitor 50a, so as to resonate and give maximum output . When a smart card is now placed in such a manner close to the loop 50 that the card loop 61 forms a closely coupled pair, there will be adequate transfer of energy. If there is no card present, the resonance point of the loop 50 would be at a somewhat higher frequency above the input frequency. However then the required power level would also be lower, since the card need not be powered up. In either case, the content of the digital data is displayed on the large mobile phone window 5,5a (Fig. 14) . In Figure 14, the mobile phone antenna bit, or respectively the dual-loop antenna as shown in Fig. 4, is not shown and should be assumed to be housed within the overall shell 1. Equally the circuitry of the signal source (47, in Fig. 13) and the modulation mode adaptor (48) with its presetting means (48a) are accommodated within the shell 1. Service personnel in the shops where that phone can be obtained would of course be instructed concerning the simple steps that are required to preset the phone to the type of card which the customer processes . Some phones would have a slot into which the contactless credit card of the customer can be placed. Other phone versions may be made, that develop adequate power so that the card may be stuck into a little recess or simply placed on the phone for establishing the necessary close vicinity coupling loop between card and phone to transfer fresh data into the card. The top row of buttons are marked 'c', 's', 'p' and 't'. c= cancel; s= summing operation e.g. all purchases of a list of categories that can be addressed in an upper case memory plane. In that memory, purchases of one kind will be found and the push button s will be pressed if only the sum of all purchases of that category should be displayed. Next, the button p= password, meaning a preset password is generated. This is used if required to increase confidentiality of an already encrypted data transmission. This is, thus, different from the PIN, which altogether enables the mobile phone to give any service whatsoever. The buttons with the left and right pointing arrows will serve to selectively delete a letter or character, and for other scrolling etc, purposes. The bar buttons marked I, II, III produce direct access to the memory record of three accounts relating to different banks or other institutions. In the upper row of five buttons in a line, DB specifies access to the debit account of one of the three accounts; CR specifies a credit account of those accounts; U shifts the reference plane of any selected button. The large display area is covered by a relatively thick glass plate that cannot easily be scratched. This plate 5,5a would be safely held by the frame 1 and must withstand the pressure of a strong hand holding the device. It must be a high quality glass or glass and plastics combination to remain without abrasions for a long period of time. The microphone is housed within the shell, but holes 70 permit the user's voice to be transmitted to a station attendant, conversation partner etc. Figures 14 and 15 show the front and side view of the device, and more particularly clarify the use of a semipermanent fixation of the ear-piece 65. To ensure good reception, the ear-piece is pressed into the user's ear. As Fig. 15 shows, the ear-piece 65 is held by a robust plug-in piece 65a, which fits precisely into a structural element so that it is not subject to wobbling or turning. The entire handhold device can be handled easily, so that the ear-piece fits the ear. Finally, Fig. 16 gives a partial view of the device (View A-A) illustrating the slot 60 through which the contactless smart card 60a can be inserted. It may be important that the system prevents simultaneous entries into the memory of the mobile phone. This can be done e.g. electronically by not allowing the PIN of the card to be the same as the PIN of the mobile phone. If the PINs are identical, then no transaction may be carried out. If they are different, the update transaction can be carried out in the memory of the card or the phone . Finally, this modified phone can be used also for audio connection, for example when an officer of the customer's bank has to be spoken to. For instances like this, the ear piece 65 has been provided. Its main feature is the shaft 65a which has a precision fit in a corresponding holder in the main body 1 of the mobile phone, producing both mechanical rigidity and good electric contact for the built-in phone leads. The main specification is that the connection system must be free from wobbling movements, and, once set, there should be no movement of the ear piece insert. On the other hand, the user will find that the unaccustomed form of the ear piece will soon be accepted by the public, or at least by that part of the public who knows the value of brevity in business conversations . From the point of view of security, the following specifications must be enforced: (a) the PIN members for the mobile phone and for the smart card must be different ones. (b) When the PIN of the smart card is chosen, it would be only the smart card that is updated, but not the financial section of the mobile phone. (c) Vice versa, when the Mobile Phone PIN code is used, only the Mobile Phone receives value, and not the smart card, even when inserted into the phone.
