Fig. 1 is the schematic flow sheet of processing method one embodiment in the power line communication network of the present invention, Fig. 2 be the embodiment of the invention based on family's plug-in audio frequency and video (HomePlug AV, HPAV) the protocol layer configuration diagram of system.
Referring to Fig. 2; The HPAV network is a centralized management network; A CCo is arranged in each network; Central coordinator also will be responsible for whole Network Management except as common PLC equipment, comprise that network is set up, the allocated bandwidth of website access and mandate, the whole network and scheduling of resource, with the coordination of a plurality of adjacent networks, network power management etc.
Data surface provides traditional layer-specific access, and (Convergence Layer is CL) with medium access control (Media Access Control, MAC) M1 interface between the layer and the phy interface between MAC layer and the physical layer to comprise convergence-level.At chain of command, different with traditional layering, chain of command provides the flexibility of treatment technology and Geng Gao more efficiently, through connection manager (Connection Management, CM) foundation of control connection and dismounting, channel estimating, bridge joint etc.
Connection between the website in the HPAV network is between higher layer entities, to set up, and each connection all can have a connection standard that is associated, and (Connection Specification, CSPEC), each CSPEC has comprised and connected required QoS.After the higher layer entities request connects, CM can distribute a connection ID (Connection Identifier, CID), also can confirm according to the CSPEC that higher layer entities provided to set up several links and given link ID (Link Identifier, LID).Link has two types: global link and link-local.Wherein, global link is to be set up to CCo request by CM, and CCo can (Global Link Identifier be GLID) with time division multiple access (Code Time Division Multiple Access, TDMA) distribution for global link is specified global link ID; For local link, when connection is set up can by initiate website distribute link-local ID (Local Link Identifier, LLID).
The HPAV network using is based on the channel access mechanism of beacon, and its beacon period is the twice of alternating current cycle period.Beacon has three types, is respectively: central beacon, discovery beacon and agent beacon.Wherein, central beacon is to be sent in each by CCo beacon period, and major function is to carry channel allocation information, schedule information, be used between each website of network coordination and with adjacent internetwork coordination.Find that beacon is periodically to be sent in " discovery procedure " by the site apparatus that inserts and authorized, be used to obtain network topology, and other websites can upgrade the site list of discovery that they safeguard and find network list through the discovery beacon; In addition, can make the hidden station point know beacon period structure and be associated with access network with CCo through the discovery beacon that detects other websites.Agent beacon is to be sent in each beacon period by agent coordinator (PCo), provides regularly and schedule information for hiding website.
Fig. 3 is the structural representation of the beacon period in the embodiment of the invention, and referring to Fig. 3, beacon period is the twice of alternating current cycle period; Beacon region (Beacon Region) is used to send central beacon; Can carry schedule information in central authorities' beacon, specifically can be the continuation scheduling, can be effective in continuous several beacon periods of appointment; Perhaps be the non-standing scheduling, only effective in current beacon period.(Carrier Sense Multiple Access, CSMA) zone is used for the CSMA access to Carrier Sense Multiple Access.Reserved area (Reserved Region) can be used for TDMA traffic assignments or CSMA traffic assignments.In addition, CCo can specify a GLID for each PCo, and in reserved area, distributes transmission time slot for PCo, and PCo can broadcast agent beacon in the transmission time slot of correspondence.As PCo when being a plurality of, CCo is that the transmission time slot that distributes of each PCo is different.
Under above-mentioned framework, referring to Fig. 1, present embodiment comprises:
Step 11:CCo detects the state of PCo, and the state of said PCo comprises: PCo is normal, and perhaps PCo goes offline;
Step 12:CCo is after definite PCo goes offline, for the corresponding hiding website of PCo that goes offline is specified new PCo.
Particularly, for PCo, if normally then can in beacon period, broadcast agent beacon, if in certain beacon period, CCo does not receive the agent beacon of PCo, and then this PCo possibly go offline; Perhaps, also possibly normally broadcast agent beacon by PCo, but owing to reason CCo such as channel conditions do not receive.Therefore, CCo does not receive the agent beacon that certain or some PCo broadcast in certain beacon period, can take measures further to confirm whether this or these PCo goes offline.Concrete measure can be only to adopt broadcast mode, only adopt mode of unicast, and perhaps broadcast mode and mode of unicast combine.Particular content can be referring to the subsequent implementation example.
After definite PCo went offline, CCo can be the corresponding new PCo of hidden station point selection of PCo that goes offline according to topology table, specifies afterwards again.
