Transfer video, images & music at up to 375Mb/s

TransferJet is a close-proximity wireless transfer standard, recently created in Japan, that provides a simple way to transfer large data files such as photos, videos and music, between mobile devices, at data rates as high as 375Mb/s, simply by placing the devices close together. It has the advantage of operating in unlicenced bands in the USA, Japan, Korea and EU countries.

Antenova’s TransferJet solution uses a recent SMD coupler, named Zoma, (Antenova’s part number SR4TO14), which the company has developed to be an RF Coupler for TransferJet. The coupler operates in the 4.48GHz band and transfers data over distances up to 30mm.

Antenova has chosen to work with a TransferJet development platform from a partner company, Icoteq and visitors to CTIA Supermobility will be able to see this operating with the  Zoma antenna. Icoteq’s hardware uses Freescale’s iMX6 quad core processor, comes with a variety of hardware interfaces and measures just 100x100mm.

The demonstration shows how consumers can use TransferJet technology to share multi-media content they have created, in real time, between devices such as cameras, camcorders, smartphones, digital video recorders, TVs, video game consoles and printers. It also has applications in digital signage and public information displays.

Antenova is a member of the TransferJet consortium, a group of companies who are co-operating to develop the technology. The TransferJet Consortium has been registered as a General Incorporated Association in Japan since September 2011 and focuses on the development of the specifications, compliance testing processes, certification programme, as well as conducting marketing activities to promote the TransferJet technology, products, applications and services across industries and to consumers.
