A computing device has a plurality of subsystems located in subsections
that are moveable with respect to each other. Communication between the
subsections is accomplished with wireless transceivers transmitting over
the air gap interface separating the subsections. Data from multiple
communicating subsystems in the subsections is multiplexed into a single
data stream and encoded into the communication protocol of the wireless
transceivers. The encoded data stream is transmitted to a compatible
transceiver where it is decoded. The decoded data stream is demultiplexed
into individual data streams for each of the communicating subsystems.
The wireless transceivers include multiple communication protocols and
transmission frequencies from radio frequencies to optical frequencies.
Optical fibers, transmission lines or waveguides may be used to transmit
signals within each subsection depending on the wireless technology and
protocol.
