Generating Infrared Communications on a Mobile Device

摘要

A system and a method are disclosed for generating an infrared signal on a mobile device. The infrared signal is generated on a mobile device by generating a bitstream based on information to be transmitted as an infrared signal. The bitstream is modulated and output on a bus to an infrared-emitting diode. The bitstream is processed in a software layer configured on the computing device, enabling the computing device to generate and process signals without additional hardware configured on the device.

1. A method of generating an infrared signal on a computing device comprising:
receiving an operating frequency of a data bus connecting a processor to an infrared system configured on the computing device, the operating frequency based on a clock signal of the data bus; generating a processed signal comprising a plurality of bits; generating an infrared signal in the time domain by transferring the processed signal from the processor to the infrared system through the data bus, wherein the infrared system ignores the clock signal of the data bus.
