A communication system capable of remotely controlling a multimedia device comprising:
- a remote control device comprising:
- a first transceiver for outputting or receiving signals;
- a first decoding unit coupled to the first transceiver for interpreting signals received by the first transceiver as output commands;
- an output unit coupled to the first decoding unit for outputting signals corresponding to the output commands;
- a control signal reception unit for receiving control signals;
- and
- a first coding unit coupled to the first transceiver and the control signal reception unit for transforming the control signals received by the control signal reception unit into a plurality of packets sent to the first transceiver according to a specified format;
- and
- a local device comprising:
- a second transceiver for exchanging signals with the first transceiver;
- a second decoding unit coupled to the second transceiver for interpreting signals received by the second transceiver as control commands according to the specified format;
- a memory unit coupled to the second decoding unit for storing the control commands generated by the second decoding unit;
- a second coding unit coupled to the second transceiver and the memory unit for generating a plurality of packets sent to the second transceiver according to a storing status of the memory unit;
- and
- a control unit coupled to the memory unit for controlling the multimedia device according to the control commands stored in the memory unit.
