摘要:A motion sensor unit (11) is intended to be carried by a domestic animal. Themotion sensor unit (11) operates in parallel to and independently of a conventionaltransponder unit (1). The motion sensor unit (11) contains a motion detector (14) formeasuring the activity of the animal by providing electrical pulses when the animal moves.Each hour is subdivided in a number of intervals in each one of which it is determined if theactivity has exceeded a certain threshold. If it is the case, a count value is incremented.The count value is then transmitted once each hour and in addition also the count valuesof all the 23 previous hours. By transmitting repeatedly such information a good safety isobtained in the reception of the information signal, and this information can be used forcomplicated evaluation processing in a processor (7) or a supplementary personalcomputer (9).
