REPEATING RADIO FREQUENCY TRANSMISSION SYSTEM FOR EXTENDING THE EFFECTIVE OPERATIONAL RANGE OF AN INFRARED REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

Inventive systems and methods for remotely controlling infrared controlled devices by using addressed radio frequency control signals. Radio frequency signals propagate through most obstructions to infrared control signals. Augmenting each control signal with an address allows for great selectivity in an environment with several transmitters and receivers.
