1. IrDA 10GigaIR Working Group 10GigaIR Working Group - update From the IrDA General Meeting of October 18, 2011 Presented by ROGER J. GREEN, University of Warwick, UK. 1

2. IrDA 10GigaIR Working Group Working Group Leadership Team WG leader: Rudi Wiedemann, TriLumina Corp., USA WG sub-leader: Dr. Frank Deicke, Fraunhofer IPMS, Germany WG sub-leader: Mr. Jun Ichihara, Rohm, Japan 2

3. IrDA 10GigaIR Working Group 10Giga-IR: How Does It Work? Based on the established Giga-IR standard Uses safe infra-red (IR) light to transmit data Data transfer rates up to 10 Gigabits/second Provides 5 Gigabits/sec. sub-specification Provides simultaneous send and receive Operates from centimeters to many meters Excellent complement to RF wireless 3

4. IrDA 10GigaIR Working Group Goals & Scope of 10Giga-IR Spec Compatible with all Giga-IR device modes Longer range and wider angles available Provides much higher, scalable bandwidth Broader wavelength & power ranges Provides simple interface to cabled data ports More stable connection for hand-held use Goes beyond docking to other usage models 4

5. IrDA 10GigaIR Working Group Why IR Optical for Wireless? FAST:10X faster than Fiber-To-The-Home SAFE:No microwave radiation involved SECURE:Line-of-sight means hard to hack QUIET:Cannot cause RF interference SIMPLE:No fancy cables, just point and go EASY:No spectrum license required SMALL:Module sizes down to a few mm CHEAP:Can be very cost-reduced in volume 5

6. IrDA 10GigaIR Working Group Compatibility Objectives Backwards compatible with all GigaIR- compliant devices Compatible across all usage models Will use existing protocol and link layer stacks wherever possible Will add new stacks for compatibility with host O/S (IrUSB, IrHDMI, etc.) 6

7. IrDA 10GigaIR Working Group Scalability Objectives Range (1cm - 10m) Angle (narrow 5 deg) Bandwidth (5, 10, 40 Gb/s) Wavelength (830nm to 1550nm) Power (<5mW to 1W) (always IEC Class 1) Integration (TOSA/ROSA, module, chipset) 7

8. IrDA 10GigaIR Working Group Safety & Regulatory Objectives IEC Class 1 compliant for all usage models Higher powers will use "extended sources" Longer wavelengths (eg-1550nm) as they become available 8

9. IrDA 10GigaIR Working Group 10Giga-IR versus WiGig 10GigaIR: Up to 10+ Gigabits/second Eye-safe Infra-Red spectrum ¼ - ½ Watt power Line-of-Sight Easily secured/shielded Low-cost IrDA-type module Supports many user models Bit Error Rate < 10 -9 WiGig: Up to 3 Gigabits/second 60GHz Microwave spectrum 2 Watts power Line-of-Sight Hard to securely contain Size & cost is TBD No “data shower” model Bit Error Rate <10 -6 9
