20100268303 | ESTABLISHING A COMMUNICATION SESSION BETWEEN AN IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE AND AN EXTERNAL DEVICE USING A BURST PERIOD AND A SNIFF INTERVAL - Communication sessions between an external device and an implantable medical device are established by the initiating device periodically transmitted bursts of energy and with the device that is the target of the bursts periodically sniffing for the transmitted bursts of energy.

The length of the bursts may be chosen to reduce the delay in establishing the communications and/or to reduce the power consumption. The implantable medical device may use multiple modes of operation where in some modes the implantable medical device sniffs and in another mode the implantable medical device transmits bursts. The sniff interval for the implantable medical device may vary depending upon the mode. The burst length may vary depending upon whether the external device or the implantable device is transmitting the bursts. | 10-21-2010 |
