Background technology
Wireless local area network technology is a kind of wireless access technology being widely used at present, and this technology utilizes wireless signal to transmit user profile.
WLAN follows IEEE802.11 serial protocols, runs according to carrier sense conflict avoidance (CSMA/CA) mechanism. CSMA/CA mechanism support be a kind of simple distribution formula, based on competition access protocol, in this mechanism, communication entity is in the position of equity, collectively cover the communication entity in region and share channel, any communication entity all needs to carry out carrier sense before sending data, just can send data after waiting some cycles according to agreement regulation after listening to channel idle. Over a wireless medium, it not that each website " can hear " other all of websites. Some website possibilities " can hear " website exchanging one end in data, and " can not hear " website of far-end, and this has resulted in hidden node problem. Hidden node problem can produce two concealed nodes, sends data because of can't detect the other side mutually simultaneously, causes and is receiving the problem that side occurs to cause due to data collision normally receiving.
IEEE802.11 has founded RTS/CTS mechanism for solving hidden node problem. Transmitting station sends (RTS by sending request before data transmission, RequesttoSend) message request channel, receiving terminal is by sending clear to send (CTS, CleartoSend) message empties transit area, owing to RTS/CTS data packet length is very short, so the probability affected by concealed nodes is only small, improved the transmission robustness of data by RTS/CTS mechanism. Owing to RTS/CTS mechanism itself can take certain interface-free resources; in actual applications; in order to promote utilization rate of eating dishes without rice or wine; access point (AP; one threshold values would generally be set on AccessPoint); before frame sends, adopt RTS/CTS mechanism when the data packet length transmitted is higher than this threshold values, do not adopt RTS/CTS mechanism when the data packet length transmitted is lower than this threshold values. Obviously, the principle of this mechanism is to be affected probability according to shorter data by concealed nodes to formulate lower than long data, and this mechanism has a problem in that does not consider whether there is concealed nodes in practical situation; The RTS/CTS mechanism being additionally provided for long data in the environment do not have concealed nodes there is no meaning, and in the environment have concealed nodes, the protection mechanism of short data is not enough.

Detailed description of the invention
The basic thought of the present invention is: detect the concealed nodes relation between each AP, detected there is concealed nodes relation between AP time, enable RTS/CTS mechanism, to data transmit provide protection.
The starting method of a kind of RTS/CTS mechanism of the present invention mainly may include steps of:
Step 101:AP controller (AC, APController) receives self local each AP transmitting terminal information reported;
In practical application, the startup system of RTS/CTS mechanism can include three kinds of communication entities of AP, AC and STA. STA is as user terminal, and with AP by air interface interactive information, this air interface meets IEEE802.11 series of canonical; AP accesses upper layer network by physical link; AC as parametric controller, AP and AC route up to and can interactive media/control information. AC preserves AP list, this AP list indicates with MAC Address each AP of described AC administration.
According to the working mechanism of IEEE802.11 definition, AP follows CSMA/CA mechanism sending before data all the time in a receive mode; In such a mode, AP continues to intercept blank-interface text, then processes as received the aerial message of IEEE802.11. Including the source address of transmitting terminal in this aerial message, this source address is the global unique mac address of 48, is used as the unique identifying information of transmitting terminal. In practical application, the transmitting terminal of the blank-interface text received by AP can be the STA etc. in other AP, described AP coverage. Define according to IEEE802.11, described aerial message also includes the type information of transmitting terminal, may determine that transmitting terminal is AP or STA based on the type information.
Define according to IEEE802.11, STA with AP normal communication before need to set up incidence relation with AP, AP and STA sets up with AP by managing the mutual of frame or cancels incidence relation; Once the incidence relation of AP and STA is set up, AP can distribute the indications of a called after AID (AssociationIdentifier) and inform to STA by management frame to STA and by AID; By the method for regularly transmission detection frame, STA, AP for being associated with AP can guarantee that this STA is whether still in its coverage.
Here, each AP local for described AC performs following action respectively: each blank-interface text received is resolved, extract the transmitting terminal information of each blank-interface text, and give described AC by the transmitting terminal information reporting that extracts, described transmitting terminal information can include the type information of transmitting terminal as described blank-interface text, MAC Address and and described AP between incidence relation information.
Step 102:AC is according to described each AP transmitting terminal information reported, and whether detect has between AP in described each AP to there is concealed nodes relation;
In practical application, if two AP can not receive the blank-interface text mutually sent, then two AP can not avoid sending data by CSMA/CA mechanism coordination simultaneously; If two AP can receive the blank-interface text of same STA, then this STA is likely simultaneously received two AP blank-interface text sent, now the blank-interface text of two AP transmissions will it may happen that collide and cause that STA cannot parse any one blank-interface text at STA place, in this case two AP concealed nodes each other, and STA is in the repetition overlay area of two concealed nodes, affected by concealed nodes. Therefore, when meeting following condition, it is determined that there is the relation of hiding between two AP: whether can receive blank-interface text that the other side sends between two AP and whether said two AP is able to receive that the blank-interface text of same STA.
Specifically, all transmitting terminal information that each AP is reported by AC resolve, if all transmitting terminal information that any two AP reports meet following condition, then judge between said two AP as concealed nodes relation, otherwise, it is determined that be absent from concealed nodes relation between said two AP: all transmitting terminal information that two AP report all do not comprise the MAC Address of the other side; The MAC Address that the transmitting terminal information that the transmitting terminal information that one of them AP reports and another AP report comprises same STA.
Step 103: detected there is concealed nodes relation between AP time, AC is according to the AP that the there is concealed nodes relation transmitting terminal information reported, determine by the regulated station (STA that concealed nodes affects, Station), generate controlled information, and described controlled information is handed down to the AP of described controlled STA association;
Here, if two AP of concealed nodes are able to receive that the blank-interface text of same STA each other, this STA associates with one of them AP, with another AP dereferenced, and (namely this AP has established incidence relation with other arbitrary STA for empty with the AP load of described STA dereferenced, no matter whether other STA are in the repetition overlay area of these two AP), then AC determines that described STA is the controlled STA affected by concealed nodes, and generates the controlled information for indicating controlled STA.
Specifically, all transmitting terminal information that the AP of concealed nodes each other is reported by described AC resolve, based on following condition, determine controlled STA, generate controlled information: the MAC Address that the transmitting terminal information that in the AP of concealed nodes, AP reports each other comprises same STA with another AP transmitting terminal information reported, the incidence relation information having transmitting terminal information to comprise the built vertical association of described STA and AP self in the transmitting terminal information that one AP reports, the transmitting terminal information that another AP reports there is transmitting terminal information comprise described STA and AP self and do not set up the incidence relation information of association, and have transmitting terminal information to comprise the incidence relation information of the built vertical association of other STA and AP except described STA self, determine that described STA is controlled STA, it is controlled STA that generation is used for indicating described STA, and associate the controlled information of the AP of described STA.
Step 104: the AP of described controlled STA association receives described controlled information, and according to described controlled information, start RTS/CTS mechanism when sending data to described controlled STA.
Here, AP enables RTS/CTS mechanism when sending data to controlled STA, does not start RTS/CTS mechanism, send data according to normal mechanism when sending data to uncontrolled STA.
Specifically; when sending data; AP judges that the MAC Address receiving the STA of data is consistent with the MAC Address of described controlled STA; then it is judged to send data to controlled STA; start RTS/CTS mechanism; judge that the MAC Address receiving the STA of data is inconsistent with the MAC Address of described controlled STA, be then judged to send data to uncontrolled STA, send data according to normal mechanism.
During practical application, AP according to the controlled information received, can also set up a controlled list, comprise the MAC Address of all controlled STA in this controlled list. Before sending data; first AP inquires about the controlled list of self; if the STAMAC address receiving described data is included in described controlled list; then described STA is controlled STA; AP enables RTS/CTS mechanism when sending data to described STA, if the MAC Address of STA is not included in described controlled list, then described STA is uncontrolled STA; AP does not start RTS/CTS mechanism when sending data to described STA, sends data according to normal mechanism.
Accordingly, present invention also offers a kind of AC for starting RTS/CTS mechanism, described AC includes: first receives unit, detection unit, generation unit and transmitting element, wherein,
First receives unit, for receiving the local each AP of AC self the transmitting terminal information reported;

In fig. 2, STA_1 is associated on AP_1, STA_2 is associated on AP_2, STA_2 is in the overlay area of AP_1 and AP_2, AP_1 and AP_2 is not mutually in the overlay area of the other side, AP_1 cannot listen to the AP_2 signal sent, and AP_2 also cannot listen to the AP_1 signal sent, and can not avoid sending data by CSMA/CA mechanism between AP_1 and AP_2 simultaneously.
For the scene shown in Fig. 2, if AP_2 sends data to STA_2 while AP_1 transfers data to STA_1, the data being simultaneously emitted by due to AP_1 and AP_2 are collided at STA_2 place and causes that STA_2 cannot receive and normally receive the AP_2 data sent, between AP_1 and AP_2, constitute concealed nodes. Specifying according to the agreement of IEEE802.11, STA_2 cannot receive when normally receiving the AP_2 data sent, and also cannot reply ACK message and confirm to AP_2, and AP_2 can resend data to STA_2 when time-out does not receive ACK message. So, due to constitute between AP_1 and AP_2 the interference that brings of concealed nodes cause data repeat send, the efficiency eated dishes without rice or wine can be reduced, reduce the handling capacity of system. Therefore, the machine-processed data that AP_2 is sent to STA_2 of RTS/CTS be must flow through for this scene and protected, reduce the probability that interference occurs in system, STA_2 just can be made can be properly received the AP_2 data sent, it is to avoid Data duplication transmission.
