Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016087553A1] The invention relates to a meter comprising a hermetically encapsulated electronic metering mechanism having at least one meter unit for the determination of meter readings, wherein the hermetically encapsulated electronic metering mechanism comprises a data memory for storing the meter readings, and the metering unit comprises an antenna of a defined shape, and at least one readout unit is arranged outside the hermetically encapsulated electronic metering mechanism for reading the meter readings from the data memory. The invention further relates to a method for the determination of meter readings and for the wireless transmission of electrical energy. The shape of the antenna of the readout unit is identical to the antenna shape of the metering unit, wherein the congruent and predefined positioning of the antenna of the readout unit ensures an effective wireless energy supply to the metering unit by means of electromagnetic radiation through the readout unit, and, independently thereof, a stable wireless data coupling for the determination of meter readings between the metering unit and the readout unit.
