Description

監視模組Monitoring module

本發明係關於一種監視模組,尤其關於一種能夠有效傳輸高畫質格式之影像串流的監視模組。The present invention relates to a monitoring module, and more particularly to a monitoring module capable of efficiently transmitting a video stream of a high quality format.

圖1顯示一習知監視模組之顯示器所顯示的畫面。如圖1所示,習知的嬰兒監視模組中,利用2.4G專屬協定射頻電路(RF),作為錄影機(camera)及可攜式顯示器(portable monitor)間的傳輸介面。射頻電路(RF)所能承載之傳輸的資料量小,因此一般影像資料僅採用視頻圖形陣列(英語:Video Graphics Array,簡稱VGA)格式。於圖1之顯示器中,是分別顯示四個VGA格式的影像畫面。Figure 1 shows a screen displayed by a display of a conventional monitoring module. As shown in FIG. 1, the conventional baby monitoring module uses a 2.4G proprietary protocol radio frequency (RF) circuit as a transmission interface between a video camera and a portable monitor. The amount of data transmitted by the radio frequency circuit (RF) is small, so the general image data is only in the video graphics array (English: Video Graphics Array, VGA for short) format. In the display of FIG. 1, four image images of VGA format are respectively displayed.

然而,若要利用2.4G專屬協定射頻電路無線傳輸影像時,射頻電路的頻寬一直是影像畫質的瓶頸。以3Mbps的射頻電路(RF)為例,要傳送H.261 720p的影像,需要圖框速率(frame rates)約20fps。However, if the 2.4G exclusive protocol RF circuit is used to wirelessly transmit images, the bandwidth of the RF circuit is always the bottleneck of image quality. Taking a 3 Mbps radio frequency circuit (RF) as an example, to transmit an H.261 720p image, frame rates of about 20 fps are required.

因此若要讓嬰兒監視模組的顯示器,顯示高畫質(High Definition,簡稱HD)格式的影像時,依據習知技術是無法採用2.4G專屬協定射頻電路(RF)進行無線傳輸,因為2.4G 專屬協定射頻電路的傳輸速度較小,使其無法有效地傳輸高畫質(HD)格式的影像。Therefore, if the monitor of the baby monitor module is to display the image in the High Definition (HD) format, the 2.4G exclusive protocol radio frequency (RF) cannot be used for wireless transmission according to the conventional technology, because 2.4G The proprietary protocol RF circuit has a low transmission speed, making it impossible to efficiently transmit images in high definition (HD) format.

因此,需要發展一種能夠有效傳輸高畫質(HD)格式之影像串流的監視模組;或者能夠同時傳輸更多VGA格式影像串流的監視模組。Therefore, it is necessary to develop a monitoring module capable of efficiently transmitting a video stream of a high definition (HD) format; or a monitoring module capable of simultaneously transmitting more video streams of a VGA format.
