Embodiment
Basic thought of the present invention is: detect the concealed nodes relation between each AP, having detected when existing concealed nodes to concern between the AP, enable RTS/CTS mechanism, logarithm reportedly send provides protection.
The startup method of a kind of RTS/CTS mechanism of the present invention mainly can comprise the steps:
Step 101:AP controller (AC, AP Controller) receives the transmitting terminal information that self local each AP reports;
In the practical application, the start-up system of RTS/CTS mechanism can comprise AP, AC and three kinds of communication entities of STA.STA passes through the air interface interactive information as user terminal with AP, and this air interface meets IEEE 802.11 series of canonical; AP inserts upper layer network by physical link; AC is as the control platform, and AP and AC route can reach and can interactive media/control information.Preserve the AP tabulation on the AC, indicate each AP of described AC administration in this AP tabulation with MAC Address.
According to the working mechanism of IEEE 802.11 definition, AP follows CSMA/CA mechanism and be in receiving mode all the time before sending data; Under this pattern, AP continues to intercept blank-interface text, as receives IEEE 802.11 aerial messages and then handle.The source address that includes transmitting terminal in this aerial message, this source address are 48 global unique mac address, can be used for the unique identifying information as transmitting terminal.In the practical application, the transmitting terminal of the blank-interface text that AP is received can be the STA in other AP, the described AP coverage etc.According to IEEE 802.11 definition, also include the type information of transmitting terminal in the described aerial message, can judge transmitting terminal based on the type information is AP or STA.
According to IEEE 802.11 definition, STA with the AP normal communication before need to set up incidence relation with AP, AP and STA set up or the cancellation incidence relation with AP by the mutual of management frames; In case the incidence relation of AP and STA is set up, AP can distribute the indications of a called after AID (Association Identifier) to give STA and AID is notified to STA by management frames; For the STA that is associated with AP, AP can guarantee that this STA is whether still in its coverage by the method for regular transmission explore frame.
Here, each local AP of described AC carries out following action respectively: each blank-interface text that receives is resolved, extract the transmitting terminal information of each blank-interface text, and the transmitting terminal information of extracting reported described AC, described transmitting terminal information can comprise type information as the transmitting terminal of described blank-interface text, MAC Address and and described AP between incidence relation information.
Whether the transmitting terminal information that step 102:AC reports according to described each AP detects to have among described each AP and has concealed nodes relation between the AP;
In the practical application, if two AP can not receive the blank-interface text of mutual transmission, then two AP can not avoid sending simultaneously data by the CSMA/CA mechanism coordination; If two AP can receive the blank-interface text of same STA, then this STA might receive the blank-interface text that two AP send simultaneously, the blank-interface text that this moment, two AP sent may bump at the STA place and cause STA can't parse any one blank-interface text, two AP concealed nodes each other in this case, and STA is in the repetition overlay area of two concealed nodes, influenced by concealed nodes.Therefore, when satisfying following condition, judge to have the relation of hiding between two AP: whether can receive the blank-interface text of the other side's transmission and the blank-interface text whether described two AP can receive same STA between two AP.
Particularly, AC resolves all transmitting terminal information that each AP reports, if all transmitting terminal information that any two AP report satisfy following condition, then judge and be the concealed nodes relation between described two AP, otherwise, judge not have concealed nodes relation between described two AP: the MAC Address that does not all comprise the other side in all transmitting terminal information that two AP report; The transmitting terminal information that the transmitting terminal information that one of them AP reports and another AP report comprises the MAC Address of same STA.
Step 103: detecting when existing concealed nodes to concern between the AP, the transmitting terminal information that AC reports according to the AP that has the concealed nodes relation, determine the regulated station (STA that influenced by concealed nodes, Station), generate controlled information, and described controlled information is handed down to the AP of described controlled STA association;
Here, if two of concealed nodes AP can receive the blank-interface text of same STA each other, this STA is related with one of them AP, with another AP dereferenced, and with the AP load of described STA dereferenced for empty (be this AP with other arbitrarily STA set up incidence relation, no matter whether other STA are in the repetition overlay area of this two AP), then AC determines that described STA is the controlled STA that influenced by concealed nodes, and generates the controlled information that is used to indicate controlled STA.
Particularly, described AC resolves all transmitting terminal information that the AP of concealed nodes each other reports, based on following condition, determine controlled STA, generate controlled information: a transmitting terminal information reporting of the transmitting terminal information that AP reports among the AP of concealed nodes and another AP comprises the MAC Address of same STA each other, there is transmitting terminal information to comprise described STA and AP self in the transmitting terminal information that AP reports and set up related incidence relation information, there is transmitting terminal information to comprise described STA and AP in the transmitting terminal information that another AP reports and self do not set up related incidence relation information, and other STA and AP self that have transmitting terminal information to comprise except described STA have set up related incidence relation information, determine that described STA is controlled STA, generating and being used to indicate described STA is controlled STA, and the controlled information of the AP of related described STA.
Step 104: the AP of described controlled STA association receives described controlled information, and according to described controlled information, is starting RTS/CTS mechanism when described controlled STA sends data.
Here, AP enables RTS/CTS mechanism when controlled STA sends data, do not start RTS/CTS mechanism when uncontrolled STA sends data, sends data according to normal mechanism.
Particularly; when sending data; AP judges that the MAC Address of the STA that receives data is consistent with the MAC Address of described controlled STA; then be judged to be to controlled STA and send data; start RTS/CTS mechanism; the MAC Address of the STA of judgement reception data and the MAC Address of described controlled STA are inconsistent, then are judged to be to uncontrolled STA and send data, send data according to normal mechanism.
During practical application, AP can also set up a controlled tabulation according to the controlled information that receives, and comprises the MAC Address of all controlled STA in this controlled tabulation.Send before the data; AP at first inquires about the controlled tabulation of self; if receiving the STA MAC Address of described data is included in the described controlled tabulation; then described STA is controlled STA; AP is enabling RTS/CTS mechanism when described STA sends data, if the MAC Address of STA is not included in the described controlled tabulation, then described STA is uncontrolled STA; AP does not start RTS/CTS mechanism when described STA sends data, send data according to normal mechanism.
Accordingly, it is a kind of for the AC that starts RTS/CTS mechanism that the present invention also provides, and described AC comprises: first receiving element, detecting unit, generation unit and transmitting element, wherein,

Embodiment one
Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 are respectively the scene schematic diagram of concealed nodes and non-concealed nodes.
In Fig. 2, STA_1 is associated on the AP_1, STA_2 is associated on the AP_2, STA_2 is in the overlay area of AP_1 and AP_2, AP_1 and AP_2 be not mutually in the other side's overlay area, AP_1 can't listen to the signal that AP_2 sends, and AP_2 also can't listen to the signal that AP_1 sends, and can not avoid sending simultaneously data by CSMA/CA mechanism between AP_1 and the AP_2.
For scene shown in Figure 2, if AP_2 sends data to STA_2 when AP_1 transmits data to give STA_1, to bump at the STA_2 place owing to the data that AP_1 and AP_2 send simultaneously causes STA_2 can't receive the data that normal reception AP_2 sends, and constitutes concealed nodes between AP_1 and the AP_2.According to the agreement of IEEE 802.11 regulation, when STA_2 can't receive the data that normal reception AP_2 sends, also just can not reply ACK message and confirm to AP_2, AP_2 can resend data to STA_2 under the situation of the overtime ACK of not receiving message.Like this, because the interference that the formation concealed nodes brings between AP_1 and the AP_2 has caused the transmission that repeats of data, can reduce the efficient of eating dishes without rice or wine, reduce the throughput of system.Therefore, must be protected the data that AP_2 sends to STA_2 by RTS/CTS mechanism for this scene, be occurred the probability of interference in the reduction system, could make STA_2 can successfully receive the data that AP_2 sends, avoid data to repeat to send.
In Fig. 3; STA_1 is associated on the AP_1; STA_2 is associated on the AP_2; STA_2 is in the overlay area of AP_1 and AP_2; AP_1 and AP_2 are respectively in the other side's overlay area; both sides can detect the data that the other side sends mutually, can send data by the CSMA/CA mechanism coordination between AP_1 and the AP_2, do not need by RTS/CTS mechanism the transmission of data to be protected.
The scene of describing with Fig. 2 is example below, and specific implementation process of the present invention is elaborated.
As shown in Figure 4, for scene shown in Figure 2, the flow process that starts RTS/CTS mechanism can comprise the steps:
Step 301, AP_1 and AP_2 resolve each blank-interface text that receives respectively, extract the transmitting terminal information of each blank-interface text, and the transmitting terminal information of extracting is reported AC.
Here, described transmitting terminal information can comprise type information as the transmitting terminal of described blank-interface text, MAC Address and and AP between incidence relation information.
In the present embodiment, comprise STA_1 and STA_2 in the AP_1 coverage, AP_1 receives the blank-interface text from STA_1 and STA_2, extracts the first transmitting terminal information and the second transmitting terminal information respectively and send to AC from described blank-interface text.Here, the first transmitting terminal information comprises: the STA pattern information of expression STA_1 type, the MAC Address MAC_1 of STA_1 and expression STA_1 set up related incidence relation information with AP_1; The second transmitting terminal information comprises: the STA pattern information of expression STA_2 type, the MAC Address MAC_2 of STA_2 and expression STA_2 do not set up related incidence relation information with AP_1.
Only comprise STA_2 in the AP_2 coverage, AP_2 receives the blank-interface text from STA_2, extracts the 3rd transmitting terminal information and send to AC from described blank-interface text.Here, the 3rd transmitting terminal information comprises: the STA pattern information of expression STA_2 type, the MAC Address MAC_2 of STA_2 and expression STA_2 set up related incidence relation information with AP_2.
For scene shown in Figure 2, AP_1 does not send blank-interface text to AP_2, and AP_2 does not send blank-interface text to AP_1 yet.
Step 302, the transmitting terminal information that AC reports according to AP_1 and AP_2, whether detect between AP_1 and the AP_2 is the concealed nodes relation, if, then continue step 303, otherwise, current flow process finished.
Particularly, all transmitting terminal information that the AP_1 of AC and AP_2 report are resolved, if satisfy following two conditions, then judge to be the concealed nodes relation between AP_1 and the AP_2:
(1) all do not comprise the other side's MAC Address in all transmitting terminal information that AP_1 and AP_2 report;
(2) the transmitting terminal information that has transmitting terminal information and AP_2 to report in all transmitting terminal information that AP_1 reports comprises the MAC Address of same STA.
In the present embodiment, all transmitting terminal information that the AP_1 of AC and AP_2 report are resolved, the 3rd transmitting terminal information that obtains the first transmitting terminal information that AP_1 reports and the second transmitting terminal information, reports with AP_2 satisfies above-mentioned condition (1), and the 3rd transmitting terminal information that the second transmitting terminal information that AP_1 reports and AP_2 report satisfies above-mentioned condition (2), therefore, AC judges between AP_1 and the AP_2 to be that concealed nodes concerns.
Step 303:AC determines controlled STA according to the transmitting terminal information that AP_1 and AP_2 report, and generates controlled information, and described controlled information is handed down to the AP related with controlled STA;
Particularly, at first because the second transmitting terminal information that reports of AP_1, the 3rd transmitting terminal information that reports with AP_2 all comprise the MAC Address of STA_2, therefore, AC determines that STA_2 is controlled STA; Secondly, do not set up related incidence relation information with AP_1 owing to comprise expression STA_2 in the second transmitting terminal information that AP_1 reports, comprise expression STA_2 in the 3rd transmitting terminal information that AP_2 reports and set up related incidence relation information with AP_2, therefore, AC determines that STA_2 is associated with AP_2, with the AP_1 dereferenced; At last, set up related incidence relation information with AP_1 owing to comprise expression STA_1 in the second transmitting terminal information that AP_1 reports, therefore, AC determines that the AP_1 load is not for empty, based on above determined factor, AC generates the controlled information of expression " STA_2 of AP_2 association is controlled STA ", and this controlled information is sent to AP_2.
Here, can also comprise the MAC Address of AP_2 and/or the MAC Address of STA_2 in the described controlled information.In the practical application, AC can send described controlled information based on the MAC Address of AP_2 in the described controlled information, also can be from the AP of self-management tabulation the MAC Address of inquiry AP_2, and send described controlled information based on the MAC Address of the AP_2 that inquires.
Step 304, AP_2 receives described controlled information, and according to described controlled information, is enabling RTS/CTS mechanism when STA_2 sends data, by RTS/CTS mechanism to sending to the DEP of STA_2, the potential interference of avoiding hidden node problem to bring.
Here, AP_2 can enable RTS/CTS mechanism based on the MAC Address of STA_2 in the described controlled information when STA_2 sends data.Perhaps; AP_2 can be according to the indication of described controlled information; the MAC Address of inquiry STA_2 from the STA tabulation of self-management; and based on the MAC Address of the STA_2 that inquires; when STA_2 sends data, enabling RTS/CTS mechanism, thus by RTS/CTS mechanism to sending to the DEP of STA_2.
The above is preferred embodiment of the present invention only, is not for limiting protection scope of the present invention.
