DEVICE CONTROL SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC G08C17/02 G06F1/32 

FIELD: physics, control.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to remote control means. The invention describes a device control system, wherein the system includes a remote control unit for transmitting a signal in the form of electromagnetic radiation and a repeater unit, having a detector for detecting electromagnetic radiation to obtain a repeater reception signal and a first signal conversion unit for passive conversion of the repeater reception signal into a repeater switching driving signal for actuating a first switch for switching the repeater unit between an inactive mode, wherein the repeater unit is completely disconnected from a first power supply, such that the repeater unit does not consume any current, and an operating mode where current from the first power supply is consumed by the repeater unit. The repeater unit further includes a signalling unit powered by the first power supply for generating a repeater transmission signal based on the repeater reception signal and a repeater transmission interface for relaying the repeater transmission signal in the form of electromagnetic radiation. The system also includes a controlled device, having a remote control interface for detecting electromagnetic radiation transmitted by the repeater transmission interface to obtain the reception signal of the device.

EFFECT: longer range of the remote control device in the system while minimising power consumption of the entire system.
