Patent ID: 6893395

Claim:
An electromedical apparatus for data transmission comprising: an electromedical implant having a first transmitter/receiver unit; and an associated external apparatus having a second transmitter/receiver unit; the first transmitter/receiver unit beginning data transmission by sending a triggering signal to the second transmitter/receiver unit at the end of a first pre-determined time interval during which the first transmitter/receiver unit is turned off; and at least a reception readiness of the first transmitter/receiver unit being maintained after emission of the triggering signal for a second pre-determined time interval; wherein the external apparatus implements a first plausibility check of data transmitted by the first transmitter/receiver unit; and wherein a first acknowledgment is sent by the second transmitter/receiver unit to the first transmitter/receiver unit upon receipt of the triggering signal, the first acknowledgment including: at least one first item of control information for controlling the reception readiness of the first transmitter/receiver unit; and a second item of control information for control of the first transmitter/receiver unit such that, in the event of lack of plausibility of the data transmitted, the second item of control information includes a first control signal for triggering a renewed transmission of data by the first transmitter/receiver unit.
