Title:
SELECTIVE CURRENT REDUCTION ENABLED WITH ELECTRICALLY DEACTIVATED KEY FOB
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/044221
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Smart key fob with an integrated rechargeable battery and a replaceable battery. Transfer of charge from the replaceable battery to the rechargeable battery is configured to occur only during a period of time when the key fob remains motionless to reduce RF interference with polling operation of the key fob's transceiver to determine presence of the mother-vehicle nearby. Optionally, the poling operation of the transceiver is reduced or ceased during periods of motionlessness of the key fob.
