EQ2440 - Project in Wireless Communication 2013

Visual based in-flight file transfer

Group: Red

Our project targets a situation onboard a plane where two passengers, having Android smartphone devices, want to transmit a file from one phone's SD-card to the other. Radio transmission is prohibited onboard, since it may interfere with the aircraft navigation and communication systems. This leads to the need of finding an innovative way of transmission. This paper explains the development of such a technology, which is based on visual transmission via QR codes. Different QR codes have been implemented and tested for fast and reliable transfer of data. Our application can achieve a speed of more than 1 KB/s. The reliability depends on the QR code and the version selected. Testing shows that the best performance is attained with color QR codes.

This is the user interface of our application
