A new protocol for the transmission of physiological signals by digital telemetry.
A method has been devised to transmit physiological signals from the brains of rats using a new digital telemetry transmission protocol. The chief advantage of the present system over existing systems is that the circuit only consumes power during the transmission of a brief pulse of information. This results in a very much extended battery life allowing the device to be implanted and recordings to be carried out over a longer period of time.
