ABSTRACT:
A two way communication system is described wherein a base unit can transfer information with remotely-located unit such as a portable infrared commuicator. The base unit produces carrier frequency signals to a plurality of distributed transmitter modules which expose different areas to infrared transmissions. A plurality of down-link or base unit associated infrared detection modules are distributed to receive infrared carrier frequency communications from one or more remote or portable units and convert these to electrical signals at the same carrier frequencies. The latter electrical signals are delivered to the base unit through a common cable. This cable also serves to deliver electrical power to the base unit to the latter modules. The electrical carrier frequency signals are combined at the base unit which uses this to provide the base unit with the information detected from the remote unit and produce a signal representative of the detected infrared energy. The latter signal may then be used to control the output power from the remote or portable units.
