Infra Red Radiation



Based on transmission by modulated infra-red radiation.



Has a wavelength just above that of visible light.



Like visible light, it is reflected from hard surfaces, yet passes through
translucent materials such as glass.



Radiators are used to emission infra-red light with a wavelength of 870 nm.

The Integrus system uses high frequency carrier signals (typically 2-8 MHz)
to prevent interference problems with modern light sources.



The transmission system converts analogue audio signals to digital
frequency modulated infra-red light.



The digital audio processing guarantees a constant high audio quality.



Receivers pick up the digital frequency modulated infra-red signal and
convert it back to an audio signal for a headphone.

Signal Processing main steps

1. A/D conversion - Each analogue audio channel is converted to a digital
signal.
2. Compression - To increase the amount of digital information.
3. Protocol Creation - Groups of four digital signals are combined into one
digital information stream. Fault algorithm information is added for fault
detection and correction.

4. Modulation - A high frequency carrier signal is phase-modulated with
the digital information stream.
5. Radiation – Up to 8 modulated carrier signals are combined and sent to
the infra-red radiators, which convert the carrier signals to modulated
infra-red light.

6. De-Modulation – a reversed process is used in the IR receivers to
convert the modulated infra-red light to separate analogue audio
channels.

Audio Channel Quality modes



Up to four different audio channel quality modes:

1)

Mono, standard quality, maximum 32 channels of 10kHz

2)

Mono, premium quality, maximum 16 channels of 20kHz

3)

Stereo,standard quality, maximum 16 channels of 2x 10kHz

4)

Stereo,premium quality, maximum 8 channels of 2x 20kHz



The Standard quality mode uses less bandwidth and can be used for
transmitting speech.



For music the Premium quality mode is advisable.

Carriers and Channels



Up to 8 different carrier signals (depending on the transmitter type) can
be transmit. Each carrier can contain up to 4 different audio channels.



The maximum number of channels per carrier is dependent on the
chosen quality modes.



Per carrier a mix of channels with different quality modes is possible, as
long as the total available bandwidth is not exceeded.

The Integrus system uses high frequency carrier signals (typically 2-8 MHz)
to prevent interference problems with modern light sources.



The transmission system converts analogue audio signals to digital
frequency modulated infra-red light.



The digital audio processing guarantees a constant high audio quality.

Signal Processing main steps

1. A/D conversion - Each analogue audio channel is converted to a digital
signal.
2. Compression - To increase the amount of digital information.
3. Protocol Creation - Groups of four digital signals are combined into one
digital information stream. Fault algorithm information is added for fault
detection and correction.

4. Modulation - A high frequency carrier signal is phase-modulated with
the digital information stream.
5. Radiation – Up to 8 modulated carrier signals are combined and sent to
the infra-red radiators, which convert the carrier signals to modulated
infra-red light.

6. De-Modulation – a reversed process is used in the IR receivers to
convert the modulated infra-red light to separate analogue audio
channels.

Signal Processing main steps

1. A/D conversion - Each analogue audio channel is converted to a digital
signal.
2. Compression - To increase the amount of digital information.
3. Protocol Creation - Groups of four digital signals are combined into one
digital information stream. Fault algorithm information is added for fault
detection and correction.

4. Modulation - A high frequency carrier signal is phase-modulated with
the digital information stream.
5. Radiation – Up to 8 modulated carrier signals are combined and sent to
the infra-red radiators, which convert the carrier signals to modulated
infra-red light.

6. De-Modulation – a reversed process is used in the IR receivers to
convert the modulated infra-red light to separate analogue audio
channels.

Signal Processing main steps

1. A/D conversion - Each analogue audio channel is converted to a digital
signal.
2. Compression - To increase the amount of digital information.
3. Protocol Creation - Groups of four digital signals are combined into one
digital information stream. Fault algorithm information is added for fault
detection and correction.

4. Modulation - A high frequency carrier signal is phase-modulated with
the digital information stream.
5. Radiation – Up to 8 modulated carrier signals are combined and sent to
the infra-red radiators, which convert the carrier signals to modulated
infra-red light.

6. De-Modulation – a reversed process is used in the IR receivers to
convert the modulated infra-red light to separate analogue audio
channels.

Signal Processing main steps

1. A/D conversion - Each analogue audio channel is converted to a digital
signal.
2. Compression - To increase the amount of digital information.
3. Protocol Creation - Groups of four digital signals are combined into one
digital information stream. Fault algorithm information is added for fault
detection and correction.

4. Modulation - A high frequency carrier signal is phase-modulated with
the digital information stream.
5. Radiation – Up to 8 modulated carrier signals are combined and sent to
the infra-red radiators, which convert the carrier signals to modulated
infra-red light.

6. De-Modulation – a reversed process is used in the IR receivers to
convert the modulated infra-red light to separate analogue audio
channels.

the infra-red radiators, which convert the carrier signals to modulated
infra-red light.

6. De-Modulation – a reversed process is used in the IR receivers to
convert the modulated infra-red light to separate analogue audio
channels.

Audio Channel Quality modes



Up to four different audio channel quality modes:

1)

Mono, standard quality, maximum 32 channels of 10kHz

2)

Mono, premium quality, maximum 16 channels of 20kHz

3)

Stereo,standard quality, maximum 16 channels of 2x 10kHz

4)

Stereo,premium quality, maximum 8 channels of 2x 20kHz



The Standard quality mode uses less bandwidth and can be used for
transmitting speech.



For music the Premium quality mode is advisable.

Carriers and Channels



Up to 8 different carrier signals (depending on the transmitter type) can
be transmit. Each carrier can contain up to 4 different audio channels.



The maximum number of channels per carrier is dependent on the
chosen quality modes.



Per carrier a mix of channels with different quality modes is possible, as
long as the total available bandwidth is not exceeded.
