Telemetry is a technology that allows the remote measurement and
reporting of information of interest to the system designer or
operator. Telemetry typically refers to wireless communications,
but can also refer to data transferred over other media, such as a
telephone or computer network or via an optical link. This book
provides a brief overview of the telemetric technique and how it
has evolved over the years as well as its numerous applications. By
providing the geographical location of animals, and sometimes
concurrently allowing the registration of other parameters (e.g.
activity, temperature), this technique is often used to study
home-range size and shape, habitat selection etc. Medical telemetry
may be defined as "the measurement and recording of physiological
parameters and other patient-related information via radiated bi-
or unidirectional electromagnetic signals." This book discusses the
telemetric devices that can be coupled with biosensors and micro
sensors that generate electrical signals related to electrochemical
processes. The engagement of fisheries and polar biologists in
acoustic telemetry studies on inshore polar fish is explored by
sharing their experiences of the issues surrounding environmental
constraint, equipment limitations, tracking protocols, choice of
species, and safety in the field. Different steps taken for the
telemetric system to record the electroencephalogram (EEG) from
adult freely moving rats are described. This novel telemetric
system was also used to record brain activity in small animals. The
development of a cost-effective telemetric system is addressed,
through a combination of a wireless microphone for signal
transmission and a computer sound card for recording of signals in
the audible range. Finally, the telemetry of body temperature for
long-term recordings of breathing is described.
