A method for transmitting data between a read/write unit (SLG) and one or more mobile data stores (D, HD) in an identification system. The method includes dividing the data transmission occurring between the read/write unit (SLG) and the data stores (D, HD) into a plurality of timeslots (SLOT), subframes (SUBFRAME) and frames. An identification timeslot (S-CH) from the respective data store (D, HD) is received and evaluated in at least one evaluation timeslot (SOa) and the data store is identified as a mobile high-speed data store (HD) if the identification timeslot (S-CH) is a high-speed identification timeslot (S.sub.31,0, S.sub.0,31), and an associated data-store identifier block (MB2) is evaluated at least beginning during the subsequent timeslot after the identification timeslot (S-CH) onward. The method provides for very rapid detection of high-speed data stores (HD).
