Abstract :
A 400 MHz SLP band transceiver utilizing a single-chip direct conversion demodulator realizes a wireless home network. An application of the network is the maintenance system networking a home water heater and a service station/company to form a closed-loop. The closed loop system provides automatic maintenance and repair. A health promotion system, another application, reduces the prevalence of health risk behavior
