Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A communication device includes an EHF communication unit, a data signal line, and a protocol bridge element. The EHF communication unit includes a transceiver, and an antenna coupled to the transceiver. The data signal line carries a data signal conforming to a first communication protocol. The protocol bridge element is coupled to the data signal line and EHF communication unit, and configured to receive a first protocol-compliant data signal from the data signal line, translate the first protocol-compliant data signal to an outbound binary signal, time-compress the outbound binary signal, and transmit the outbound time-compressed signal to the transceiver. The protocol bridge element is further configured to receive an inbound time-compressed signal from the transceiver, time-decompress inbound time-compressed signal to an inbound binary signal, translate inbound binary signal to conform to a second communication protocol, and provide second protocol-compliant signal to the first data signal line.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A communication device comprising: a first extremely high frequency (EHF) communication unit configured to transmit and receive EHF signals, wherein the first EHF communication unit comprises: a transceiver configured to receive and demodulate an inbound EHF signal into an inbound time-compressed signal, and to receive and modulate an outbound time-compressed signal into an outbound EHF signal; and an antenna coupled to the transceiver configured to recei…
