A wireless repeater (also called wireless range extender) takes an existing signal from a wireless router or wireless access point and rebroadcasts it to create a second network. When two or more hosts have to be connected with one another over the IEEE 802.11 protocol and the distance is too long for a direct connection to be established, a wireless repeater is used to bridge the gap. It can be a specialized stand alone computer networking device. Also, some wireless network interface controllers (WNIC)s optionally support operating in such a mode. Those outside of the primary network will be able to connect through the new "repeated" network. However, as far as the original router or access point is concerned, only the repeater MAC is connected, making it necessary to enable safety features on the wireless repeater. Wireless repeaters are commonly used to improve signal range and strength within homes and small offices.
Wireless position sensor
Apparatus for tracking an object includes a plurality of field generators, which generate electromagnetic fields at different, respective frequencies in a vicinity of the object, and a radio frequency (RF) driver, which radiates a RF driving field toward the object. A wireless transponder is fixed to the object. The transponder includes at least one sensor coil, in which a signal current flows responsive to the electromagnetic fields, and a power coil, which receives the RF driving field and conveys electrical energy from the driving field to power the transponder. The power coil also transmits an output signal responsive to the signal current to a signal receiver, which processes the signal to determine coordinates of the object.

ActiveUS7415242B1Frequency-division multiplex detailsActive radio relay systemsCommunication interfaceSignal on
A repeater for a wireless network might use a first communication interface to detect the presence of a wireless device. Alternatively, another network element might use the first communication interface to detect the presence of the wireless device and then provide a notification to the repeater. The first communication interface might be a low-power communication interface, such as one that uses Bluetooth. In response to detecting a wireless device or receiving a notification, the repeater might switch to an active mode and begin repeating signals on the wireless network via a second communication interface, such as one that uses CDMA.
