Claims

A luminaire that provides illuminating light, the luminaire comprising:
a wireless signal repeater configured to receive an input wireless signal from a transmitting device and to transmit an output wireless signal corresponding to the input wireless signal;
an occupancy sensor configured to monitor a space and output occupancy detection information indicating whether the space is occupied;
and wherein said wireless signal repeater is configured to operate based on said occupancy detection information.

The wireless signal repeater is configured to transmit the output wireless signal at a first power level when the occupancy detection information indicates that the space is occupied; 2. The apparatus of claim 1, configured to transmit the output radio signal at a second power level less than the first power level when occupancy detection information indicates that the space is not occupied. lighting equipment.

2. The lighting fixture of claim 1, wherein the wireless signal repeater is configured to initiate transmission of the output wireless signal when the occupancy detection information indicates that the space is occupied.

2. The lighting fixture of claim 1, wherein the wireless signal repeater is configured to stop transmitting the output wireless signal when the occupancy detection information indicates that the space is not occupied.

5. The wireless signal repeater of claim 4 , wherein the wireless signal repeater is configured to transmit the output wireless signal when an occupant detected by the occupancy sensor is associated with a user profile stored on the lighting fixture. lighting equipment.

2. A lighting fixture according to claim 1, wherein said wireless signal repeater is configured to transmit said output wireless signal on a bandwidth indicated in a user profile.

The radio signal repeater is configured to scan an empty channel or a relatively less busy channel, and the radio signal repeater scans the empty channel or the relatively less busy channel to transmit the output radio signal. 2. A luminaire according to claim 1, configured to use a channel that is not connected.

The radio signal repeater is configured to transmit the output radio signal during one or more time periods, and the radio signal repeater is configured not to transmit the output radio signal outside of the one or more time periods. 10. A luminaire according to claim 1, wherein:

The lighting fixture includes a light source for providing the illumination light, power to the light source is turned off when the occupancy detection information indicates that the space is not occupied, and the power is turned off when the occupancy detection information indicates that the space is not occupied. 2. A lighting fixture according to claim 1, turned on when indicates that the space is occupied.

2. A lighting fixture according to claim 1, wherein said wireless signal repeater is configured to transmit said output wireless signal and a second output wireless signal on different network channels.

A method of extending coverage of a wireless network, comprising:
receiving an incoming wireless signal by a wireless signal repeater of the luminaire;
transmitting, by the wireless signal repeater, an output wireless signal at a first power level when occupancy detection information from an occupancy sensor indicates that the space monitored by the occupancy sensor is occupied; said output radio signal corresponds to said input radio signal;
The wireless signal repeater transmits the output wireless signal at a second output level that is less than the first output level when the occupancy detection information from the occupancy sensor indicates that the space is not occupied. and
A method, including

The method includes scanning an empty channel or a relatively uncongested channel, wherein the wireless signal repeater selects the empty channel or the relatively uncongested channel to transmit the output wireless signal. 12. The method of claim 11, adapted for use.

12. The wireless signal repeater of claim 11 , wherein said wireless signal repeater transmits said output wireless signal on a first network channel and transmits a second output wireless signal on a second network channel different from said first network channel. described method.

The radio signal repeater starts transmitting the output radio signal at the second output level after a waiting period after the occupancy detection information from the occupancy sensor indicates that the space is not occupied. 12. The method of claim 11 .

12. The method of claim 11 , said method comprising controlling illumination light provided by a light source of said lighting fixture based on said occupancy detection information.
