Introduction The DLXA-002 is a wireless transmitter using Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) modulation technology. The OFDM transmitter transfers data such as pictures, audio and etc. at a rate of 4 to 15 Mbps within 8MHz bandwidth in the Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band. It consists of MPEG encoder, modulator and RF circuit. The DLXA-002 is docked onto a Sony Camcorder and works only with the signal from Sony Camcorder. The signal of the DLXA-002 is received by the optional antenna and tuner/de-modulator. 1-2. Features 1-2-1. COFDM Transmission Provides very stable RF link Excels in high multi-path environments Significantly outperforms the analog FM system 1-2-2. Mobility Omni-directional Antenna offers more shooting flexibility due to stable RF link 1-2-3. Fast set up and ease of use Dockable to camcorder Compact transmitter Built-in MPEG-2 encoder/COFDM modulator/RF Eliminates triax cable usage 1-2-4. MPEG-2 Encoding High Picture Quality 1-2-5. Low Power Consumption One hour operation using BP-L60A battery 2 2. Locations and Functions of Parts
