unit

The digital infrared wireless conference main unit converts audio and/or control signals into carrier outputs which are transmitted to the digital infrared transceiver(s). In the digital infrared transceiver(s) the carriers are converted into modulated infrared light, sent to all digital infrared wireless conference units. The digital infrared transceiver(s) also receive infrared signals from every digital infrared wireless conference unit and convert the signals into audio or control signals which are transmitted to the main unit.

Figure 1.2 The basic system concept

1.3.2 IR radiation

Audio and control signals of HCS-5300/80 are transmitted as modulated infrared light. Infrared radiation is part of the electro-magnetic spectrum, which is composed of visible light, radio waves and other types of radiation. Its wavelength is longer in comparison with the wavelength of visible light. Infrared light cannot pass through opaque walls and ceilings and guarantees privacy of the meeting by avoiding of being intercepted or disturbed. In addition,

infrared light has no radio radiation and a license is not required when operating infrared light systems.

1.3.3 Carriers and channels

TAIDEN HCS-5300/80 new generation digital infrared wireless conference system adopts 1~8 MHz wave band (IEC 61603 BAND Ⅲ,Ⅳ,Ⅴ), shown as figure 1.3. This wave band is suitable for the transmission of wide band audio and corresponding signals. Please refer to table 1.1.

1.4 Aspects of infrared signal transmission

To benefit from the advantages of a digital infrared wireless conference system the signals should be transmitted undisturbed. This is achieved by using digital infrared transceivers well positioned and sufficient in quantity to ensure uniform and adequate infrared radiation for all conference units. When planning a digital infrared wireless conference system, several aspects influencing the uniformity and quality of the infrared signal should be considered. These are discussed in the next sections.

1.4.1 Ambient lighting

HCS-5300/80 system adopts 1~8 MHz wave band, and has very good anti-interference performance (see figure 1.4, figure 1.5).

Figure 1.4 High frequency lights disturbance from HF

driven light sources (energy-saving lamps)

Figure 1.5 New generation digital infrared conference

system with 1-8 MHz wav e band ca n avoid high frequency

lights disturbance

For meeting rooms with large, unscreened windows, multi-transceiver operation should be considered. For outdoor using, a site test wil l be required to determine the needed amount of transceivers. With sufficient transceivers, perfect signal transmission can be fulfilled even in bright sunlight.

1.4.2 Objects, surfaces and reflections

Just like visible light, infrared radiation is reflected from hard surfaces and refracted by hyaloid (glassy or transparent appearance) items. Objects in the conference venue as well as structure of the walls and ceilings will influence the distribution of infrared light. Infrared radiation is reflected from almost all hard surfaces. Smooth, bright or shiny surfac es reflect well. Dark or rough surfaces absorb a large part of the infrared energy. Usually, surfaces opaque to visible light are also opaque to infrared radiation. Shadows from walls and furniture will influence the transmission of infrared light. This can be solved by using a sufficient quantity of transceivers. They should be positioned in a manner to provide an infrared field strong enough to cover the whole conference area. Make sure that each infrared wireless conference unit can communicate simultaneously with at least two transceivers to guarantee stable adequate infrared signal transmission.

1.4.3 Infrared service area of digital infrared wireless confere nce un it

Infrared light is directional invisible light. Infrared wireless conference unit gets best sensitivity when it directly faces a transceiver. Every HCS-5300/80 series

new generation digital infrared wireless conference unit is equipped with infrared glass at its frontage to guarantee maximum receiving angle.

Figure 1.6 Coverage area of new generation digi tal infrared wireless conference uni t

1.4.4 Infrared service area of digital infrared transceiver

The type of the digital infrared transceiver determines the covering area. More transceivers can enlarge the covered area. The coverage area is determined by the intersection of the infrared working area of the digital infrared transceivers with the receiving plane determined by the

position of the infrared wireless conference unit. The size and the position of the coverage area are related to the height chosen for mounting the transceiver. If infrared signals between the transceiver(s) and the conference unit can get directly to each other, their intensity guarantees normal communication.

c. footprint of HCS-5300TW /80

Figure 1.7 Coverage area of digital infrared tr ans ceiver

1.4.5 Overlap and multipath effects

If footprints of two transceivers overlap, its total coverage area may be larger than the sum of the two separate footprints. In an area with overlap effect, the individual radiation signals of two transceivers are added, resulting in an increase of the radiation intensity, larger than the required intensity.

Figure 1.8 Increased coverage area caused by added

radiation power

However, due to the differences in the delays of the signals from two or more transceivers, the signals may cancel out each other (multipath effect). In a worst-case situation, loss of reception at some positions (black spots) may be the consequence. The distance between the main unit and each transceiver must be equivalent to avoid multipath effect.

Figure 1.9 Reduced coverage area caused by

differences in cable signal delay
