Abstract: Described is a system and method for resilient coverage in a wireless environment. The system may include a first wireless device (110) having a first wireless transceiver; a second wireless device (125) having a second wireless transceiver; and an envelope detection arrangement ("EDA") (540) coupled to the second wireless device. The second wireless device has a first communication mode and a second communication mode. The second wireless transceiver conducts wireless communications with the first wireless transceiver using a predetermined wireless communication protocol (e.g., IEEE  802.11/16) only when the second wireless device is in the first communication mode. The second wireless transceiver is in a low-power state when in the second communication mode.
