1. A knee prosthesis for implanting in a knee of a host, the knee prosthesis comprising:
a tibial extension comprising a coupling section, the tibial extension coupled to a tibial plate by way of the coupling section, where a receptacle is located within the tibial extension; and
an implantable reporting processor disposed in the receptacle, the implantable reporting processor comprising:
at least one sensor configured to monitor host activity by making measurements,
a memory configured to store the measurements,
a radio circuit and an antenna configured to transmit the measurements to a location outside of the host, and
a processing circuit configured to activate the at least one sensor to make measurements based on an energy consumption profile that specifies a plurality of different time periods and a different respective maximum energy consumption for each of the plurality of different time periods; and
a battery disposed in the receptacle and coupled to the implantable reporting processor, where the battery provides energy to the implantable reporting processor.
