Description
This is the handheld microphone or bodypack transmitter that captures the audio signal from the performer or speaker. In the case of a handheld microphone, it includes the microphone capsule and transmitter electronics. For a bodypack transmitter, it typically connects to a headset microphone, lavalier microphone, or instrument cable. The receiver is the component that captures the wireless signal transmitted by the microphone transmitter. It typically connects to a mixing console, amplifier, or sound system using an audio cable or through wireless technology. The receiver demodulates the wireless signal and outputs the audio signal for amplification and processing. Wireless microphone systems includes one or more antennas to improve signal reception and transmission. These antennas can be built into the receiver unit or connected externally for better signal strength and reliability. Both the microphone transmitter and receiver require power to operate. This can be provided by batteries, AC power adapters, or rechargeable battery packs, depending on the specific model and configuration. Wireless microphone systems operate within specific frequency bands allocated by regulatory authorities. They may operate in the UHF (Ultra High Frequency) or VHF (Very High Frequency) bands, with different models offering different frequency ranges and capabilities. Wireless microphone systems includes additional features such as adjustable gain settings, frequency scanning and synchronization, diversity reception for improved signal reliability, and interference detection and avoidance mechanisms.
