  • Publication number: 20130101002
    Abstract: Devices communicate with one another over a wireless channel according to a signal strength of a signal transmitted over the wireless channel. Digital data captured at a source is transmitted over the wireless channel at a first quality if the signal strength or latency is above a threshold and at a second quality if the signal strength or latency is below the threshold. In addition, noise can be inserted into the transmitted digital data as a way to alert the recipient of the signal of signal strength degradation at a finer granularity.
