Abstract:
To achieve ultra-high bandwidth data transmission according to embodiments of the invention, a plurality of parallel 60 GHz band frequency signals traveling in substantially parallel paths is employed. A connector or housing includes a plurality of metallized, grounded shells or chambers having antenna pairs that are embedded therein. There is no physical contact between the transmitter and receiver antennas. Instead, the metallized, grounded connector chambers provide isolation between adjacent radio links which all operate on the same frequency.
Abstract:
A transmit digital processing system for wireless transmission of HDMI and/or DVI data using an FPGA. The FPGA converts the data into two data streams and includes a front end component multiplexing video data with control data. A complementary receive FPGA is also disclosed.
Abstract:
The present embodiments provide apparatuses, systems and methods for that allow the booting of an embedded system from an off-board memory. In some embodiments, a system is provided that includes a circuit board comprising a processor, a memory, an operating system stored in the memory and utilized to at least in part control processor operation, and an external memory access comprising a first port onboard the circuit board, a local off-board memory, wherein the local off-board memory is coupled to the first port, and a root file system stored in the local off-board memory used while booting the operating system.
Abstract:
In a wireless 60GHz data communication system, one or both of the source and receiver can have multiple antennae, with the antenna providing the best signal strength being dynamically selected. In this way, if a person or other object momentarily crosses between the source and receiver, blocking data communication from one antenna, the other antenna can be used.

Abstract:
Data such as high definition (HD) video may be sent from a transmitter such as a laptop computer to a receiver such as a video projector using a 60 GHz (and, hence, inherently directional, short range, and thus secure) forward channel wireless link. Encryption information such as encryption keys are also exchanged over the forward channel link. The encryption information is used to encrypt control signals that can be exchanged over a reverse channel link that may operate at a frequency of 2.4 GHz.
Abstract:
Digital Visual Interface (DVI), or High Definition Multi-media Interface (HDMI), data is received from a source and sent to a transmitter chip that includes a transition minimized differential signaling (TMDS) receiver that outputs a 3-data and 1-clock physical signaling stream representing the DVI or HDMI data. This stream is rendered into I and Q data by an ASIC or FPGA and sent to a wireless transmitter for modulation, upconverting, and transmission to, e.g., a nearby display device without ever rendering the data into baseband video on the transmitter chip. The display device has a receiver chip that is essentially the inverse of the transmitter chip.
