Distributed spectrum analyzer
First Claim
1. A method of managing the radio frequency environment of a building zone using a plurality of radio frequency enabled building management devices distributed around the building zone, comprising:
- interrupting a radio frequency enabled building management device from the device'"'"'s primary building management function when a measuring event occurs;
measuring radio frequency information of the building zone using the interrupted radio frequency enabled building management device;
sending the measured radio frequency information from the radio frequency enabled building management device to a controller system;
storing the measured radio frequency information in a database of the controller system; and
repeating the interrupting, measuring, sending, and storing steps for a plurality of radio frequency enabled building management devices.

Abstract
A method of managing the radio frequency environment of a building zone includes using a plurality of radio frequency enabled building management devices distributed around the building zone. The method also includes interrupting a radio frequency enabled building management device from the device'"'"'s primary building management function when a measuring event occurs, measuring radio frequency information of the building zone using the interrupted radio frequency enabled building management device, sending the measured radio frequency information from the radio frequency enabled building management device to a controller system, storing the measured radio frequency information in a database of the controller system. The method also includes repeating the interrupting, measuring, sending, and storing steps for a plurality of radio frequency enabled building management devices.
