Abstract
In a bidirectional wireless data transmission system meter transmitters and concentrators communicate in wireless uplink and downlink connections. In order to be able to receive measured value data messages more reliably from the meter transmitters, the quality of wireless uplink connections which can be better received is reduced. This is done in that the concentrator acts with control signals via wireless downlink connections on parameters, such as transmitting power or message management, of the control of uplink transmitters. For this, uplink quality criteria automatically retrievable in the concentrator are, in particular, absolute or relative levels, signal-to-noise ratio and a relative number of receivable data messages.
