PERFORMANCE MONITOR, TRANSMISSION METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT
First Claim
1. A data transmission method for use in the transmission of a performance transmitter of a portable user-specific performance monitor by using wireless data transmission that is based on radio-frequency electromagnetic radiation, the method comprising:
- measuring, by the performance monitor, the movement and/or organ system state of the user;
detecting whether wireless data transmission is available in the performance transmitter; and
storing measuring data into the memory of the performance transmitter, if wireless data transmission is not available, otherwise transmitting the measuring data by using wireless data transmission.

Abstract
A data transmission method for use in the transmission of a performance transmitter of a portable user-specific performance monitor by using wireless data transmission that is based on radio-frequency electromagnetic radiation, and the method comprises measuring with the performance monitor the movement and/or organ system state of a user. In the solution, the availability of wireless data transmission in the performance transmitter is determined. If wireless data transmission is not available, measuring data is stored into a memory of the performance transmitter, otherwise the measuring data is transmitted using wireless data transmission.

15. A performance monitor as claimed in claim 19, wherein the performance transmitter is configured to transmit to a predefined communication device a signal to be acknowledged, the performance transmitter is configured to wait for an acknowledgement signal from the predefined communication device within a predefined delay from the transmission of the signal to be acknowledged and to detect that wireless data transmission is available, when the acknowledgement signal arrives within the predefined delay from the transmission of the signal to be acknowledged and to detect that wireless data transmission is not available, when the acknowledgement signal does not arrive within the predefined delay from the transmission of the signal to be acknowledged.

18. A computer program product that contains encoded instructions that when loaded into a portable user-specific performance monitor form a computer process that controls the transmission operation of a performance transmitter of a performance monitor when the performance monitor is intended to measure the movement and/or organ system state of the user and when the performance transmitter is intended to transmit measuring data wirelessly using radio-frequency electromagnetic radiation, the computer process comprising:
-
detecting the availability of wireless data transmission in the performance transmitter; and storing measuring data into the memory of the performance transmitter, if wireless data transmission is not available, otherwise controlling the performance transmitter to transmit the measuring data by using wireless data transmission.
