    Abstract: A label is described for attachment to an animal. The label includes a transmitting and receiving device having an electric oscillator circuit that, upon closure of the oscillator circuit, generates a periodic electric oscillator signal with an oscillation period for transmitting an electromagnetic beacon signal with the transmitting and receiving device. The label is configured for closing the electric oscillator circuit during a predetermined transmission duration, and is further configured for opening the electric oscillator circuit upon elapse of the predetermined transmission duration, wherein the predetermined transmission duration corresponds to at least one and at least a whole number of oscillation periods of the electric oscillator signal.

    Abstract: A system for determining positions of labels. Each label includes a processor and a transmitting and receiving device, and each label is configured for transmitting an electromagnetic first type beacon signal. The labels are also configured for receiving first type beacon signals from other labels, and for determining first type positioning data. The labels are also configured to transmit information about the positioning data. The system includes a receiver for receiving transmitted information about the positioning data, and a computer configured to calculate, on the basis of the received information, the relative positions of the labels relative to each other. The information about the relative positions of the labels can be exported by means of an electrical information signal.

    Abstract: Method and system for determining calving information about a moment at which a cow is going to calve, a period in which a cow is going to calve or the moment at which the cow has calved. The system comprises a sensor and a signal processing unit which is configured to process signals obtained with the sensor. With the sensor a heartbeat of the cow is measured so that the signals obtained with the sensor comprise information about the measured heartbeat of the animal. With the signal processing unit an increased heartbeat is recognized according to a predetermined criterion on the basis of signals obtained with the sensor. If the increased heartbeat is recognized with the signal processing unit, the signal processing unit generates an alarm signal which comprises the calving information.
