Abstract
A wireless networking method includes placing a master device and at least one peripheral device within proximity of each other. A radio frequency request for proximity pairing is transmitted from the peripheral device to the master device. Radio frequency proximity pairing signals implementing the proximity pairing are transmitted from the master device to the peripheral device. The proximity pairing signals are transmitted with a first level of transmission power. After the proximity pairing is complete, operational signals are transmitted from the master device to the peripheral device. The operational signals are transmitted with a second level of transmission power greater than the first level of transmission power.
