Description
The present invention relates to an agreement that is used for ultra broadband (UWB) media interviews controls (MAC).Or rather, the present invention relates to dynamic beaconing cycle in the UWB MAC agreement.The most especially, the present invention relates in comprising the UWB MAC agreement of distributed reservation protocol (DRP), shorten and prolong a beacon phase.The invention still further relates to any use and comprise the wireless system of the MAC agreement of distributed reservation protocol.
Wireless network uses beacon to set up with keeping and communicates by letter.MAC agreement has been eliminated needs to network infrastructure by distribution function on all nodes of wireless network.In this MAC agreement, there are not the accessing points or the central coordinator that are used for wireless personal-area network (WPAN), referring to MultiBand OFDM Alliance (MBOA) MAC WirelessMedium Access Control (MAC) Specification For High RateWireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN) (standard of the high-rate wireless personal area network) draft 0.6 in July, 2004, its content is merged by reference at this comprehensively.And, this standard also comprises a distributed reservation protocol (DRP), this agreement is used for announcing via beacon transmissions the use in device transmission time, by receiving the use that beacon is discerned their transmission time from apparatus adjacent, and the use in the transmission time of other device of consideration before emission/reception data.The present inventor be used for this new standard firsthand information one of author and the present invention has been contributed proposal to firsthand information.Meanwhile, several concrete replenishing of the present invention have been made regulation by MBOA.
According to the present invention and the MBOA standard that is associated, with reference to figure 1, in order to keep the coordination between the communicator, all devices all are required to launch regularly beacon 103.For transmit 103 in a zone, device keeps a time cycle that is called as beacon period (BP) 101, and beacon period (BP) 101 strictly is used for beacon emissions and reception.The device group who shares this beacon period 101 is called as beacon group, referring to Fig. 2.Beacon 103 provide the basic timing of network and emission with etc. the relevant information of time reservation.Basic timing structure is a superframe 100100.1100.N.The concrete parameter of this agreement that MBOA has selected is that a length is 65,536[usec] superframe 100, it is made up of 256 media interviews time slots (MAS) 203, wherein, the length of each MAS all is 256[usec].The numbering of MAS time slot 203 from 0 to 255.How several types of time slot use MAS203 to be defined according to this device or near the device it.
Before can setting up communication, device must be created its beacon group or add an existing beacon group 201.For each BP101, continuous MAS203 is used as beacon slot 203, and all devices are all launched their beacon 103 in the meantime.The time started of superframe 100 is begun to come definite and be called as time started beacon period (BPST) by beacon period 101, and MAS time slot 203 was numbered with respect to this time started.When a device just opened a new beacon group, why not it is in office kept the border that afoul that time slot defines this superframe with the time slot of other beacon group.
This makes that distributed MAC protocol is very suitable for using and peer-to-peer network from group.And, by distributed MAC based on the medium made of device keep the sensing and the conflict time of having eliminated on these medium.Yet all beacon can both be sent out during that fixed length beacon period may comprise empty beacon slot or not comprise enough beacon slots, thereby has caused the utilization ratio of shared medium to reduce.
The poor efficiency that needs the dynamic beaconing cycle to relax the medium that caused by the fixed beacon cycle uses, and allows the device of maximum quantity to participate in this network simultaneously.
According to the present invention, plan to identify oneself with those devices of communicating by letter and during dynamic BP 301, send a beacon with other device.The structure of BP301 is illustrated in Fig. 3.Device do not launch during the BP301 outside the beacon frame 103 frame and during BP301 other beacon frame of scanning.The length of BP301 of the present invention is dynamic and comprises a beacon slot 303 that quantity is variable.Although the length of BP is dynamic, yet this BP has the maximum length that certain is provided by a large amount of MAS203 or beacon slot 204.Each MAS time slot 203 all comprises 204 duration of the beacon slot BeaconSlotLength802 of a predetermined quantity, referring to Fig. 8.BP301 may be at the time slot that begins or finish to comprise certain quantity at 302 o'clock, and these time slots are for sky or be preserved for specific purposes.
According to the present invention, the time is divided into each superframe 100 as illustrated in fig. 2.Have a dynamic BP 301 when each superframe 100 beginning, follow by a transfer of data interval/phase 102 its back.In addition as shown in Figure 2, also may one superframe comprise several BP of different beacon group.Each beacon group all has its superframe boundaries.The quantity of the beacon slot 204 among the BP can depend on the quantity rsp.devices of occupied beacon slot in the beacon group and increase and decrease.
In a plurality of beacon frames 103 in the BP101 each is all being followed a short frame pitch (SIFS) and is being added mBeaconGuardTime 803.The maximum length of a beacon frame is mMaxBeaconLength 801.Each beacon slot 303 all has the length of BeaconSlotLength802.

It should be understood by one skilled in the art that following description is to be provided for the purpose that illustrates rather than limit.A technical staff understands, has many variations in the scope of spirit of the present invention and the claim of adding.The unnecessary known function and the details of operation can be omitted in order to avoid fuzzy the present invention from current explanation.
Fig. 4 has illustrated a typical wireless personal-area network 400 that will use embodiments of the invention.This network comprises a plurality of wireless personal communication devices 401.In conventional method, each device 401 can be added in any from group (ad-hoc) net in its a-n radio range a-n 402, and therefore can participate in the BP more than.
Each wireless device 401 in the WPAN400 shown in Fig. 4 can comprise a system, and this system comprises an architecture that is illustrated in Fig. 5.As shown, each wireless device 401 can comprise an antenna 506 that is coupled to receiver 502, and receiver 502 is communicated by letter on wireless medium 510.And each device 401 all also comprises a processor 503 and a beacon process module 504.For example, in a device, processor 503 is arranged to from receiver 502 one of reception and comprises one or more beacon frames 601 with beacon period occupancy information element (BPOIE) 602i of corresponding beacon position, and be configured to use beacon process module 504 to handle beacon frame 601 so that determine, promptly, the device of beacon group and feature thereof, and they are stored in the device performance table 507 as memory 508 parts.In addition, memory is also stored and the beacon slot type of each dynamic beaconing in the cycle information relevant with quantity, and writes down the distance to go in each dynamic beaconing cycle.In device 401, processor 503 also is configured to use beacon process module 504 to prolong BP101 and shortens BP101 as required, thereby forms a dynamic BP 301.
After device 401 energized, its scanning for beacon 103.Do not detect any beacon 103 if install 401 after scanning for beacon, then it sent a beacon and creates BP301 before emission or reception mac frame.This has set up the reference beginning of BP and superframe, and it can be the several beacon slots before being launched beacon.Resulting empty slot 302 can be used for purpose outside the scope of the invention by other device.Device 401 continues to send beacon 103 in the BP of each continuous superframe 100, up to it as described below detect beacon collision till.
A beacon frame comprises the information relevant with BP length.This length information can point to after the last occupied beacon slot.The beacon slot 303 of gained can also be used to special purpose.According to the present invention, such purpose can be that expansion to BP is to be used to hold additional device.
Detect one or more beacons 103 if install 401, then it can not create new BP301.Alternatively, this device is determined the beacon group that it is current from the beacon 103 that is received.The current beacon group of device comprises that device 401 in the end therefrom receives the device of at least one beacon frame 103 during the mLostBeacons superframe 100.Received the beacon that is in different B P if install 401, then it select one or several cycle and with the beacon that just sends it before another device is communicated by letter therein.
Derived in the beginning of BP301 and the beacon slot that can from beacon, comprise consistent number with the beginning of the superframe that is associated 100.The end of BP301 is also announced in a beacon that is provided by beacon slot that takies at last or MAS, is also added the dedicated time slot 303 of some at last.Different devices may be announced different BP length because they therefore may have different neighbours and may detect varying number take beacon slot.This is a BP length by one of reason that certain maximum length limited.
There are several possibilities in selection for beacon slot when adding network.As long as selected a time slot, device 401 just sends a beacon in the same beacon slot in each continuous superframe 100, till it detects beacon collision.If detect a beacon collision, then use one of the method also can be used for adding network to select a new time slot.
In a preferred embodiment, during BP301, all are in the device of active state or standard knot power mode and all launch their beacon 103.The frame of beacon 103 comprises following field and information unit (IE), as shown in Figure 6:
Number of timeslots 601;
Device identification 602;
MAC Address 603; With,
The information unit of some (IE) 604.
Timeslot number 601 is the orders of launching that time slot of beacon therein and having represented beacon, referring to the beacon slot quantity 308 among Fig. 3.If being arranged, the timeslot number field size of 8 bits just can support 256 devices simultaneously.
Device ID 602 is relatively short ID (for example, 16 bits), and it is (or the selecting at random) of for example deriving from the device MAC Address of 48 bits (or 64 bits) and has the purpose of paring down expenses in this device of addressing.
MAC Address 603 is full MAC Address of 48 bits (or 64 bits) of device.
Information unit (IE) 604 can have different types.The type of information unit is discerned by information unit identifier (ID) 701.Referring to Fig. 7 A and 7B, only describe a beacon period occupancy information element (BPOIE) 700 in the present invention in detail.Under the prerequisite that does not influence core of the present invention, several replacement forms of BPOIE can be arranged.In first replacement shown in Fig. 7 A, BPOIE 700 comprises the tabulation of the beacon slot information field 740 of the beacon frame 103 that other device in the same beacon group receives.The jacket and shorts that each list cell 740 of BPOIE 700 comprises all that among the same BP those install employed beacon slot quantity (position) 742 and send the device of beacon frame in that beacon slot 204 are put ID 741.These information can be used to detect beacon collision.BPOIE 700 needs in each beacon frame 103 because other device must be notified whether their beacon frame successfully received or beacon collision do not taken place.The latter may be because two devices have been selected the same beacon position among the BP 301 randomly or resulted from the terminal problem of hiding in the mesh network sight.In a kind of sight in back, if the beacon position of another device is not heard and do not awared to these two other devices each other, then a device may receive two beacon frames 103 that come from the different device of same position among the BP 301.BP length 703 is the length of the BP that measures in beacon slot 303.
In second alternative shown in Fig. 7 B, BPOIE 750 comprises a bitmap 754, and wherein, whether for example corresponding time slot of one or several bit indication of each beacon slot is occupied.There is a DEVID tabulation 755 that takies the device of the time slot in the bitmap this bitmap back.Be similar to first embodiment, these information can be used to detect beacon collision.BP length 753 is again the length of the BP that measures in beacon slot 303.
In the present invention, device is created the BP of a distance to go, and it may dynamically be prolonged or shorten.Each device all keeps its BP length.Other device notices that a device has made this BP prolong or shorten a new BP length value of beacon.For fear of beacon and data collision, a device selects sufficiently long BP length to cover this device observed beacon slot that takies at last in superframe before at least.The BP expansion may be this device sends beacon in the beacon slot after the previous last occupied beacon slot in BP result.The expansion of BP can not surpass a predetermined maximum length, and it provides the upper limit of maximum quantity of the device of each BP.If for example device stopped launching beacon or move they in BP beacon position and produce cavity (for example Kong beacon slot), then can carry out the contraction of BP.The objective of the invention is to make the quantity of the quantity of BP size and occupied beacon slot-the be head among the BP adaptive.
Have a plurality of alternatives, they have defined when adding an existing BP device and how to have selected beacon slot.They all have common ground, promptly install the beacon slot that never selection has been taken by another device.Device that will add is decoded and is found the occupied information about beacon slot to detect the occupied of a beacon slot by the scanning for beacon time slot and to the BPOIE of other beacon.
In a preferred embodiment, the device of adding is by for example selecting the first idle time slot or by selecting a time slot in the idle time slot window to select beacon slot after the last occupied beacon slot randomly.
In an alternative, an adding apparatus is selected any one idle time slot, and it may be the idle time slot in the middle of the BP.
In another alternative, an adding apparatus only is allowed to for example select the time slot in the middle of the dedicated time slot of some when BP begins.
The combination of these alternatives is possible, for example, adding apparatus select after the last occupied time slot time slot and in addition in dedicated time slot beacon that is used for the superframe of predetermined quantity of emission added this network so that point out a new device.Perhaps, the beacon of superframe emission that device at first is predetermined quantity in dedicated time slot finishes or the middle permanent time slot that its beacon is relocated to it at BP then.
Each device is all preserved a bitmap 505, so that the DEVID that takies and be associated of beacon slot 204 is stored in its beacon group.Beacon slot 204 is marked as busy following the time among Figure 50 5 on the throne:
A) beacon frame 103 is received during this beacon slot 204; Perhaps
B) beacon slot 204 is included in the beacon slot information field 740, rsp., and it is marked as by shared in the beacon slot bitmap 753 of the BPOIE700 that receives at the device from same beacon group.
Beacon slot 303 changes to the free time from having much to do among Figure 50 5 on the throne following the time:
A) beacon 103 is not received in time slot during the continuous superframe of mMaxLostBeacons; And
B) in the gap information of this beacon slot was not included in, the corresponding bits in the rsp. beacon slot bitmap was not set in BPOIE700, and BPOIE700 is that any device from same beacon group receives during the continuous superframe of mMaxLostBeacons.
When a different DEVID is included among the BPOIE of the beacon that it has received in its beacon slot, then device detect it beacon with another beacon collision.
After detecting beacon collision, device (certainty ground or with certain probability) switches its beacon slot.For this cause, beacon collision is similar to the situation of adding apparatus very much, because identical alternative is to supply selection that utilize or a new beacon slot:
This device is selected the beacon slot after the last occupied beacon slot, that is, select the first idle time slot or select a time slot at random in the window of crack at one's leisure;
This device is selected any idle time slot, and it for example may be the central idle time slot of BP that another device has discharged;
Device is selected a time slot in the middle of some dedicated time slots, promptly in the beginning of BP; And,
Device is selected a beacon slot according to the combination of previous rule, i.e. selection takies a time slot after the time slot at last and is beacon of superframe emission of some in addition in dedicated time slot, perhaps at first in dedicated time slot, launch a beacon to be used for the superframe of some, finish or the middle permanent time slot that moves to it at BP then.
A device can be announced the reorientation of its beacon before the time slot of settling it again.
Again not occupied and size BP101 constantly increases for fear of the beacon slot 204 that has cancelled, dynamic beaconing cycle permanent and to shrink automatically be essential.The device that beacon (beaconing) is set in BP must leave their current beacon slots and move to a different time slot realizes reducing of BP length.As shown in Fig. 9 A, a device relocates to its beacon the next idle beacon slot that begins direction along BP.Cannot think idle for the shrinkage operation dedicated time slot.Device also is allowed to skip the beacon of not wishing maybe can not move to the device of idle time slot.In the step of a certainty quantity, BP will be tightened.
In one aspect of the method, device is reoriented to its beacon in the detected any idle time slot of direction that device begins along BP.
In one aspect of the method, have only a device to be allowed to be moved in a step, it for example may be that device of the last beacon of emission in BP.All beacons of neighbours by scanning it and by the BPOIE information in the assessment neighbours beacon, a device can check whether it has launched last beacon in BP.Then, this independent device moves to a special time slot, and as shown in Fig. 9 B for example is the first idle time slot (it is not a dedicated time slot) among the BP.After so several times arrangement again, BP is tightened.
All alternatives can make up with a switching device shifter, and this switching device shifter is before emission beacon in new time slot or side by side launch beacon in a dedicated time slot with it.Alternatively, two beacons of a switching device shifter emission: respectively launch concurrently to be used for the superframe of predetermined quantity with new beacon position old.
In all alternatives, device can carry out switch before or side by side announce to settle again its beacon with it.
Though the preferred embodiments of the present invention are illustrated and describe, but one of ordinary skill in the art are to be understood that: Governance framework described herein, apparatus structure and method are illustrative, and can make different subs and change and its element can be substituted by equivalent under the prerequisite that does not break away from true scope of the present invention.In addition, under the prerequisite that does not break away from center range of the present invention, can make many changes so that instruction of the present invention is adapted to a kind of special situation.Therefore, original idea is that the present invention is not subject to be considered and is used for carrying out optimal mode of the present invention and disclosed specific embodiments, but present invention includes all embodiment that belong in the appended claims scope.
