High power control signal transmission and low power data signal transmission in a wireless security system

A wireless security system for maximizing transmission power levels, which comprises:

• an alarm sensor adapted to transmit a control signal;
• a central receiver adapted to receive said control signal;
• a central transmitter comprising
• a processing unit adapted to generate a modulating signal and a transmission power control signal, said modulating signal comprising a message, said message comprising control and/or data information, said transmission power control signal comprising one of at least two states at any given time dependent upon whether said message comprises data and/or control information,
• an oscillator adapted to generate a carrier signal,
• a modulator adapted to modulate said carrier signal with said modulating signal, said modulator adapted to control amplification of said modulated carrier signal in accordance with said state of said transmission power control signal, and
• an antenna adapted to radiate said modulated carrier signal;
• a control system adapted to communicate with said central receiver and said central transmitter;
• and
• a console adapted to receive a data and/or control signal comprising said modulated carrier signal from said central transmitter, said modulated carrier signal comprising said message, decode said message into control and/or data information, perform tasks associated with said control information, and display said data information.
