Abstract: A system is provided that includes a plurality of sensors that detect threats within a secured geographic area, a control panel that monitors the plurality of sensors for activation, a primary control unit that forms a primary mesh network coupling the plurality of sensors with the control panel based upon relative link quality, wherein the primary mesh network is defined by a primary routing table, and a redundant control unit that forms a secondary mesh network coupling the plurality of sensors with the control panel based upon the relative link quality, wherein the secondary mesh network includes a respective relationship of each of the plurality of sensors defined by a secondary routing table, wherein the redundant control unit is located in a different geographic location than the primary control unit within the secured geographic area, and wherein the secondary routing table is different than the primary routing table.

Abstract: A system including a plurality of wireless sensors that detect threats within a secured geographic area, a control panel that monitors the plurality of sensors for activation, a primary control unit that forms a primary wireless mesh network coupling the plurality of sensors with the control panel based upon relative link quality, where the primary mesh network is defined by a primary routing table and a redundant control unit that forms a secondary wireless mesh network coupling the plurality of sensors with the control panel based upon relative link quality, where the secondary mesh network including a parent or child relationship of each of the plurality of sensors defined by a secondary routing table where the redundant control unit is located in a different geographic location than the primary control unit within the geographic area and where the secondary routing table is different than the primary routing table.
