Abstract
A method and an arrangement for uni- or bidirectional wireless communication of signals or data especially in a reflective environment like a MR imaging system, between at least one first transmitter and/or receiver unit (501, 601, 701; T/R1) and at least one second transmitter and/or receiver unit (801; T/R2) is disclosed. The reliability and availability of the communication link especially in a highly reflective environment is improved especially by using spread spectrum technology and ultra wide band carrier frequencies.

- 11. Method for wireless communication of signals in an MR imaging system, by means of a plurality of communication channels, each comprising a first transmitter unit and a second receiver unit, the communication between both is conducted by transmitting spread spectrum signals or UWB (ultra wide band) signals, and wherein the transmission of the communication channels is time division multiplexed.
- 14. Arrangement for wireless communication of signals in an MR imaging system, comprising a plurality of communication channels which are time division multiplexed, each communication channel comprising a first transmitter unit and a second receiver unit, for transmitting and receiving, respectively, spread spectrum signals or UWB (ultra wide band) signals, wherein the first transmitter unit comprises an UWB transmitter for generating and transmitting an UWB signal to the second receiver unit.
