ABSTRACT:
A radio transmission telemetry system includes many battery-operated radio transmitters to intermittently transmit very short messages indicative or status of sensors associated with the transmitters and a receiver to collect data from the sensors. The transmitters transmit very short messages separated by long time intervals independently of any receiver capable of receiving from any of the transmitters. Each transmitter varies the frequency for each transmission and the time between transmissions according to a sequence that is unique and based on the transmitter ID code. The receiver holds information about the expected time and the expected frequency of the future transmissions for each transmitter. The receiver identifies each source of transmissions based on its unique variations of the transmission time and frequency, thus eliminating the necessity to include any information about the transmitter ID code in the transmitted messages.
