INTRODUCTION
Using this low cost Project one can reproduce AUDIO
from TV without disturbing anyone.
 It does not use any wire between TV and
HEADPHONE.
In place of pair of wires it uses invisible Infrared light
to transmit audio signals from TV to Headphone.
Without using any lens a range of up to 6 meters is
possible.
Range can be extended by using Lenses and Reflectors
with IR sensors comprising transmitters and
receivers.
WHY WE GO FOR INFRA RED?
Radio frequency gets congested every year & the range
too is restricted from country to country.
Immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI).

AMPLIFICATION OUTPUT
BLOCK DIAGRAM EXPLANATION
Input audio signal is from television.
It is amplified & fed to IR LED for audio transmission.
The transmitted IR rays are collected by photodiode or
photo transistor.
The amplification circuit is used to amplify and it also
act as filter to remove noise.
Finally the filtered signal is applied to headphone.

TRANSMITTER
IR transmitter uses two-stage transistor amplifier to
drive two IR LEDs connected in series.
An audio output transformer is used (in reverse) to
couple Audio output from TV to the IR transmitter.
 Transistors (BC547) & (BD140) amplify the audio
signals received from TV through audio transformer
low impedance output windings (lower gauge or thicker
wire) are used for connection to TV side while high
impedance are connected to the IR transmitter.
This IR transmitter can be powered by 9v mains
Adaptor or 9v Battery. Led in transmitter circuit
functions as power-on indicator.
AUDIO RECIEVER


RECIEVER
IR receiver uses 3-stage transistors amplifier.
The first two transistors (BC549c) form audio signal
amplifier.
While the third transistor (BD139)is used to drive a
headphone.
 Adjust potmeter for max clarity.
Direct photo transistor towards the IR LEDs of
transmitter for max range.
 A 9v Battery can be used to receiver circuit for
portable operation.
POWER AND BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS
Power consumption is determined by a number of

factors, such as the electronic and the optical
components used, the modulation scheme, the
topology, and the emitted power of a wireless system.
The type of technology used also affects power
consumption.
IR transceivers present a lower power requirement
than their RF counterparts.
Geometry of the room where the system is
operating, and the reflective properties of its
walls and ceiling also contributes to its efficiency.
The use of an optical collimating element can
minimize the power consumption at the
transmitter.
This also enables us to use narrow receiver.
To optimize the power consumption, it is also
important to transmit only the relevant
information.
AMENDMENTS
Wider Line of Sight
Infrared Communication is line of sight
communication. Due to this if there is an obstruction
placed between the transmitter and the receiver then
the transfer of the data stops.
2. Better Range
Use of power amplifiers and an array of high power
LEDs arranged at different angles will be used to
increase the range of infrared transmission to cover
more area.
3. Use Of Optical Concentrator

By using Optical Concentrator at the Transmitting
end, the IR Power gets concentrated and a higher
volume of the music and a better quality of music can
be obtained.
ADVANTAGES
Wider and Unregulated Spectrum.
High noise immunity.
This circuit is simple to use and efficient.
Higher security
It can be assembled with ease.
It is cheap and hence very economic.
Portable and low power consumption.
DISADVANTAGES
Direct line of sight communication
Shorter Range
Restrictions to the emitted optical power due to
eye safety.
APPLICATIONS
Infrared filter
Thermograph
Tracking: Infra Red Homing
Infra Red heating
Communication
Spectroscopy
