Abstract
Data transmission from a data carrier (D) to a station (1) normally takes place by load modulation of a non-modulated carrier signal (CS) by means of an auxiliary carrier signal (SCS1), test means provided in the station then test the correct data transmission and, upon detection of disturbed data transmission, a change over is made to an other transmission mode in which data transmission takes place from the data carrier (D) to the station (1) by means of load modulation of the non-modulated carrier signal (CS) by means of at least one other auxiliary carrier signal (SCS2).
