1. An ingestible apparatus for producing and processing physiological signals, the apparatus comprising:

  • a physiological transducer circuit to sense physiological signals representative of a physiological parameter measured from within the body of a living entity;

    a processor, responsive to the physiological transducer circuit, to process the physiological signals;

    a transmitter to transmit the processed signals during transmission intervals which are alternated with idle intervals; and

    a capacitor-based circuit, including at least one capacitor, to accumulate sufficient charge during one of the idle intervals to supply power to the transmitter during one of the transmission intervals.
