Cascaded standardized hot-pluggable transceiving units providing a multiviewer functionality

Abstract

A system comprising cascaded standardized hot-pluggable transceiving units for providing a multiviewer functionality. A first layer comprises a plurality of transceiving units implementing a scaling functionality followed by a pre-positioning functionality. A second layer comprises a transceiving unit implementing a positioning functionality. Source video streams are scaled by the first layer, and further combined to generate primary mosaiced video streams. The primary mosaiced video streams are combined by the second layer to generate a secondary mosaiced video stream. Alternatively, the first layer comprises at least one transceiving unit only implementing the scaling functionality. Source video streams are scaled by the first layer to generate scaled video streams. The scaled video streams are combined by the second layer to generate a mosaiced video stream.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
