In this article, we prove that the equation of the Schroedinger maps from R{sup 2} to the hyperbolic 2-space H{sup 2} is SU(1,1)-gauge equivalent to the following 1+2 dimensional nonlinear Schroedinger-type system of three unknown complex functions p, q, r, and a real function u: iq{sub t}+q{sub zz}-2uq+2(pq){sub z}-2pq{sub z}-4|p|{sup 2}q=0, ir{sub t}-r{sub zz}+2ur+2(pr){sub z}-2pr{sub z}+4|p|{sup 2}r=0, ip{sub t}+(qr){sub z}-u{sub z}=0, p{sub z}+p{sub z}=-|q|{sup 2}+|r|{sup 2}, -r{sub z}+q{sub z}=-2(pr+pq), where z is a complex coordinate of the plane R{sup 2} and z is the complex conjugate of z. Although this nonlinear Schroedinger-type system looks complicated, it admits a class of explicit blow-up smooth solutions: p=0, q=(e{sup i(bzz/2(a+bt))}/a+bt){alpha}z, r=e{sup -i(bzz/2(a+bt))}/(a+bt){alpha}z, u=2{alpha}{sup 2}zz/(a+bt){sup 2}, where a and b are real numbers with ab<0 and {alpha} satisfies {alpha}{sup 2}=b{sup 2}/16. From these facts, we explicitly construct smooth solutions to the Schroedinger maps from R{sup 2} to the hyperbolic 2-space H{sup 2} by using the gauge transformations such that the absolute values of their gradients blow up in finite time. This reveals some blow-up phenomenon of Schroedinger maps.
