  • Method and system for wireless communication in a lighting application
    Patent number: 10440540
    Abstract: Devices associated with a lighting application can utilize multiple communication technologies for communicating with multiple devices that have different power consumption constraints and different transmission ranges. Communications and signaling can be managed to extend battery life. A battery-powered occupancy sensor can communicate occupancy information via a radio. The radio can be placed in sleep mode to preserve battery life. A communication node in the application can support intra-network and inter-network communications, for example with remote devices and systems.
