Embodiment Construction

[0031] Referring to FIG. 1, a home media system 1 has an antenna 2 for receiving broadcast television signals. In this embodiment, the received broadcast television signal is a digital television signal broadcast wirelessly by a terrestrial broadcast system and received on a conventional home television antenna. However, the invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments the television signal may be broadcast via satellite, cable or any other suitable medium. Suitably, therefore, the antenna 2 is replaced by a satellite dish, cable connection, etc., and suitable modifications can be made to the embodiments of the invention described below.

[0032] The antenna 2 is connected to a distribution amplifier 3 for amplifying the received broadcast television signal and distributing it via coaxial cables 4, 5 to a set-top box 6 of the home media system 1 and to a Wi-Fi  TV7. The set top box 6 is capable of receiving and decoding broadcast television signals received fr...

Abstract

A communication device (9) has a Wi-Fi< TM > device (14) for communicating with another communication device (9). The Wi-Fi< TM > device (14) has one output connected to an antenna (13) and another output connected to a coaxial cable jack (10) via a coupler (11) . The antenna (13) therefore provides a wireless communications link and the coupler (11) provides a wired communications link. A diversity switch (18) of the Wi-Fi< TM > device (14) uses antenna diversity switching provided for in the Wi-Fi< TM > standards to switch between the wireless communications link and the wired communications link.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to communication devices and methods for communicating using wireless communication protocols. Specifically but not exclusively, the application of the present invention is a method for connecting Wi-Fi via a wireless link or a wired link  A communication device that transmits a signal to another communication device. Background technique [0002] Wi-Fi  In home and office environments worldwide. Wi-Fi  is a wireless communication protocol for wireless local area networks (WLANs) based on the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.11 specification (found at http: / / standards.ieee.org). Basically, Wi-Fi  Allows communicating devices to communicate data with each other ad hoc, via wireless links between antennas. Currently, Wi-Fi  Typically used for communication between personal computers (PCs), between a PC and a printer, or between a PC and a wireless access point (WAP) that allows access ...
