1. A method for efficiently transmitting data from a remote location to a base station, comprising the steps of:
- obtaining a first data sample A and a second data sample B;
transmitting the second data sample B and a first type alarm message to the base station if it is determined that the second data sample B is above a value X; and
transmitting a second type alarm message and the second data sample B to the base station if it is determined that the second data sample B is above additional values.

Abstract
A remote device or module sends data to a base station when the change in data from the last transmission exceeds a predetermined threshold. The invention also allows for transmission at a minimal specific time interval. Additionally, the device allows for transmissions based on alarm or alerting conditions.

11. A system for efficiently transmitting data from a remote location to a base station (260), comprising:
-
an input device (230) that obtains a first data sample A and a second data sample B; a controller (210) that determines whether the second data sample B is above or below a value X and whether the second data sample B is above or below both values (A+Y) and (A+Z); and a transmitter (140) that transmits the second data sample B and a first type alarm message to the base station if it is determined that the second data sample B is above or below the value X, and transmits a second type alarm message and the second data sample B to the base station if it is determined that the second data sample B is above or below both values (A+Y) and (A+Z). - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
