How does a wireless keyboard work?

Answer 1

A wireless keyboard works just like a television remote or wireless video game controller. There is something on the computer which receives input signals and sends them to the CPU for quick processing and then finally it's displayed on the computer monitor as the appropriate result.

Answer 2

Wireless keyboards work by plugging in a reciever to your pc, in most cases in a usb port, allthough in the past they have used a five pin serial connection. Then with batteries in the keyboard itself, it transmits the information from the keyboard to your pc, much like a remote to a television, allowing you to work at distances of sometimes up to ten feet from your computer.

Answer 3

Wireless keyboards are battery powered. The wireless keyboard uses radio waves to transmit signals between the keyboard and the receiver. The keyboard will transmit the signal to a receiver on the computer through the USB port.
