Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A control system for controlling at least one environmental parameter in an operating area in response to sensor signals. The system includes a central control unit, actuators and mobile sensor units, and also at least one, preferably a plurality, of communication nodes which are placed in the operating area. Each one of the communication nodes is configured to mediate signals between the sensor units and the central control unit in a monitoring area by wirelessly receiving sensor signals from sensor units located within its monitoring area and forwarding the sensor signals to the central control unit. A monitoring area of a communication node is defined by the signal coverage of the communication node.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A control system for controlling at least one environmental parameter in an operating area in response to sensor signals, the system comprising a central control unit, actuators and mobile sensor units, wherein: the central control unit communicates with the actuators and the sensor units, and is configured to send control signals to the actuators based on the sensor signals from the sensor units, the actuators are placed in the operating area or in a vici…
