A mobile communication device is provided for wirelessly transferring information to and from a base unit. The device comprises an RFID module to receive a wake-up communication from the base unit and to send connection parameters back to the base unit. A wireless communication module is included that is responsive to the connection parameters received from the base unit. A microcontroller is coupled between the RFID module and the wireless communication module to wake-up the wireless communication module when the RFID module receives the wake-up communication from the base unit.
