Abstract
A mobile identification transmitter for an access arrangement of a vehicle, said access arrangement being supplied by a vehicle battery, comprises an identification-transmitter-side receiving device for receiving a vehicle-side request signal. Furthermore, it comprises an identification-transmitter-side transmitting device for emitting a response signal in response to the reception of the vehicle-side request signal. Finally, the mobile identification transmitter has an identification-transmitter-side control device for identifying and/or estimating the state of charge of the vehicle battery, for comparing the identified and/or estimated state of charge with a predetermined threshold value, and for identifying an emergency state of the access arrangement if the identified and/or estimated state of charge falls below the predetermined threshold value. If this is the case, then the identification-transmitter-side transmitting device can emit electromagnetic waves for charging a chargeable energy store for supplying the access arrangement. Simple and convenient emergency operation of the access arrangement is thus possible.
