It also drew on more unusual features of the Amimon approach, including a system that begins with barely compressed video, using a lossless compression standard that halves the signal requirement for wireless transmission, when compared to uncompressed video. It then divides the data stream between those bits that are more important for quality video rendering, and those which are less important.
But several companies are working on adapting standard 802.11n for HD video, usually with clever use of 4x4 MIMO and compression - these include Quantenna and Qualcomm, which announced its N-Stream 4x4 chipset for this market in June, leveraging technology it acquired three years ago with Airgo. Atheros is also pushing further into this space using MIMO.
