  • Patent number: 7551936
    Abstract: A method for radiotransmission in a danger alarm system that operates by way of repeaters but has a current-saving design, so that battery operation is possible. The reception means are switched on cyclically at preassigned points in time, and transmission-ready participants send a preamble leading to the result that the intended recipient participants, in event of reception, remain switched on until the end of the complete preamble, and in the event that no preamble is received, are switched on again. In the preamble, a point in time is transmitted at which the receiver switches on again, to receive the data telegram proper.

  • Patent number: 7363036
    Abstract: On registration of a new subscriber in a radio system with a central system and a plurality of subscribers the new subscriber first sends a search telegram to all the subscribers that it can reach in its radio range and selects from the subscribers that respond a first router. Via this router it sends a registration request in the form of a message with a provisional own address to the central system. If it accepts the registration request the central system sends a response telegram via the router which contains a subscriber number and a system identifier for the new subscriber, which is integrated when the subscriber number is accepted into the radio system.

  • Patent number: 7248854
    Abstract: In a radio alarm signaling system with a central station (Z) and a plurality of bidirectional (BT1 to BT5) and unidirectional (UT1, UT2) subscribers, the unidirectional subscribers (UT1, UT2) attempt to send messages via one of the bidirectional subscribers (BT1 to BT5) to the central station. In this case the message sent by a unidirectional subscriber (UT2) is received by all bidirectional subscribers (BT1, BT2, BT5) in its radio coverage area. Each bidirectional subscriber that has received this message waits until a time slot individually assigned to it before forwarding the message. During the wait time each of these bidirectional subscribers (BT1, BT2, BT5) monitors the radio channel to see whether another subscriber has already forwarded the message. If this is the case it suppresses its own forwarding. This ensures that only one of the bidirectional subscribers (BT1) forwards the message so that no overloading of the radio system occurs.

  • Publication number: 20040203343
    Abstract: A method is proposed for radiotransmission in a danger alarm system that operates by way of repeaters and yet is of current-saving design, so that battery operation is possible. Here, the reception means (3, 6, 9) are switched on cyclically at preassigned points in time, and transmission-ready participants (1, 4, 7) send a preamble leading to the result that the intended recipient participants, in event of reception, remain switched on until the end of the complete preamble, and in the event that no preamble is received, are switched on again. In the preamble, a point in time is transmitted at which the receiver switches on again, to receive the data telegram proper.

  • Publication number: 20040203344
    Abstract: A method for radiotransmission in a danger alarm system, operating by way of repeaters and permitting a free choice of the intended recipient participants. For each participant a list is deposited in which, for intended recipient participants reachable directly, an address is stored, and for participants not reachable directly, the address of an intermediating participant. Thus, information can be exchanged individually among the participants in a danger alarm system.
