Abstract
A short-distance wireless signal extension method for extending the transmission range of a short-distance wireless remote control is provided. In the short-distance wireless signal extension method, a short-distance wireless signal is received. An n-times sampling is performed on the short-distance wireless signal to generate a sampled short-distance wireless signal, wherein n is a real number greater than or equal to 2. The sampled short-distance wireless signal is transmitted through a wireless transmission technique or a wired transmission technique.
Claims15
A short-distance wireless signal extension method, for extending a transmission range of a short-distance wireless remote control, the short-distance wireless signal extension method comprising:
- receiving a short-distance wireless signal;
- performing an n-times sampling on the short-distance wireless signal to generate a sampled short-distance wireless signal, wherein n is a real number greater than or equal to 2;
- and
- transmitting the sampled short-distance wireless signal through a wireless transmission technique or a wired transmission technique.
A short-distance wireless signal extension method, for extending a transmission range of a short-distance wireless remote control, the short-distance wireless signal extension method comprising:
- receiving a wired signal via a wired channel, or receiving a wireless signal via a wireless channel, and obtaining a sampled short-distance wireless signal from the wired signal or the wireless signal;
- restoring the sampled short-distance wireless signal to obtain a restored short-distance wireless signal;
- and
- sending the restored short-distance wireless signal to a controlled home appliance through a short-distance wireless transmission technique.
A short-distance wireless signal extension receiver, for extending a transmission range of a short-distance wireless remote control, the short-distance wireless signal extension receiver comprising:
- a short-distance wireless signal receiving unit, receiving a short-distance wireless signal and directly supplying the short-distance wireless signal without decoding or demodulating the short-distance wireless signal;
- a signal sampling unit, performing an n-times sampling on the short-distance wireless signal to generate a sampled short-distance wireless signal, wherein n is a real number greater than or equal to 2;
- and
- a signal transmitting unit, transmitting the sampled short-distance wireless signal through a wireless transmission technique or a wired transmission technique.
A short-distance wireless signal extension transmitter, for extending a transmission range of a short-distance wireless remote control, the short-distance wireless signal extension transmitter comprising:
- a signal receiving unit, receiving a wired signal via a wired channel or receiving a wireless signal via a wireless channel, and obtaining a sampled short-distance wireless signal from the wired signal or the wireless signal;
- a signal restoring unit, restoring the sampled short-distance wireless signal to obtain a restored short-distance wireless signal;
- and
- a short-distance wireless signal transmitting unit, directly sending the restored short-distance wireless signal to a controlled home appliance through a short-distance wireless transmission technique without decoding or demodulating the restored short-distance wireless signal.
