Claim 1
Independent Claim
193 words
A data transfer system comprising at least one portable device (4) and at least one outside reading device (1) whereby information is transmitted from said portable device to said outside reading device,I said portable device (4) comprising: first memory means (11) for storing said information which comprises a plurality of data blocks, each of said data blocks comprising at least an information data, a block identification data and an error check data; transmitting means (4B) for transmitting said information to said outside reading device (1) wherein each of said data blocks is a unit of data transmission; and said outside reading device (1) comprising: receiving means (5) for receiving said data blocks transmitted by said portable device; error checking means (50A, 50B) for error checking and/or correcting said data blocks with said error check data; second memory means (53) for storing said data blocks when said data block is obtained with no error; and data processing means (51) for reading said data blocks from said second memory means after all of said data blocks of said portable device (4) are stored in said second memory means and for processing said data blocks read.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
26 words
A data transfer system according to claim 1, wherein each of said data blocks further comprises a portable device identification data for identifying said portable device.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
A data transfer system according to claim 2, wherein said second memory means (53) has memory area for a plurality of said portable devices.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
48 words
A data transfer system according t claim 1, wherein said data processing means (51) reads said data blocks from said second memory (53) only when all of said data blocks of the portable device (4) are stored in said second memory means (53) in a predetermined time period.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
47 words
A data transfer system according to claim 1. wherein said portable device (4) further comprises, header adding means (16,17) for adding header data to each of said data blocks whereby a set of said data block and said header data is a unit of the data transmission.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
214 words
A data transfer system comprising at least one portable device and at least one outside reading device whereby information is transmitted from said portable device to said outside reading device, said portable device comprising: first memory means for storing said information which comprises a plurality of data blocks; adding means for adding a device identification data to identify said portable device, a block identification data to identify said data block and an error check data to check and/or correct data error to each of said data blocks; transmitting means for transmitting said information to said outside reading device wherein each of sets of said data block, said device identification data, said block identification data and said error check data is a unit of data transmission; and said outside reading device comprising: receiving means for receiving said data blocks transmitted by said portable device; error checking means for error checking and/or correcting said data blocks with said error check data; second memory means for storing said data blocks when said data block is obtained with no error; and data processing means for reading said data blocks from said second memory means after all of said data blocks of a portable device are stored in said second memory means and for processing said data blocks read.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
91 words
A portable device for storing and transmitting information data to at least one outside reading device comprising: memory means for storing said information which comprises a plurality of data blocks, each of said data blocks comprising an information data, a device identification data to identify said portable device, a block identification data to identify said data block and an error check data to check and/or correct data error and transmitting means for transmitting said information to said outside device wherein each of said data blocks is a unit of data transmission.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
169 words
A data transfer system comprising at least one portable device and at least one outside reading device whereby an information signal is transmitted from said portable device to said outside reading device: said portable device comprising: memory means for storing said information signal; and transmitting means for transmitting said information signal to said outside device, and said outside reading device comprising: receiving means for receiving said information signal transmitted by said portable device; analogue to digital converter means for sampling and converting said information signal to a digital information signal; digital band pass filter means for filtering said digital information signal, said digital band pass filter means having a passing frequency band corresponding to data rate of said information signal; phase locked loop circuit means for generating output pulses which are synchronous with said digital information signal filtered by said digital band pass filter means whereby said output pulses are supplied to said analogue to digital converter means and said digital band pass filter means as driving clock pulses.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
138 words
A data transfer system according to claim 8, wherein said phase locked loop circuit means comprises: oscillator means for generating a master clock signal; dividing counter means for dividing said master clock signal and for generating a plurality of clock signals each of which has a different frequency; multiplexer means for selecting one of said clock signals; means for receiving the selected one of said clock signals and for raising the frequency of said selected one of said clock signals to the Nth power so that frequency-raised clock signal is generated; and phase comparator means for phase-comparating said frequency-raised clock signal and said digital information signal filtered by said digital band pass filter means and for generating a control signal according to the comparison result wherein said control signal controls said multiplexer means and determines the number N.
