WirelessHD

WirelessHD is the name for the specification of wireless transmission of high-resolution images. WirelessHD 1.0 [WiHD] transmits on 1.76 GHz wide bands in the 60 GHz frequency spectrum and can transmit up to 4 GBit / s. This allows uncompressed high-resolution HD content to be transmitted over distances of up to 10 meters. Version 1.1 allows the transmission of up to 7.1 GBit / s each to max. 4 separate streams (maximum 28.4 GBit / s) and thus the transmission of UHD content.

Version 1.0 of the specification was released by the WirelessHD consortium in January 2008. Members of this consortium include Sony , LG , Matsushita ( Panasonic ), NEC , Samsung , LTD , Sibeam , Toshiba and, more recently, the chip manufacturer Intel .
