Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a broadcast radio system having a master station and a plurality of slave stations. The present invention relates to a broadcast radio system. 2. Description of the Related Art An example of the prior art will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 4 is a block diagram for explaining the general configuration of the broadcast radio system. In FIG.
1 is a master station, and 402 to 404 are slave stations. In the event of a disaster or the like, the broadcast radio system shown in FIG. Disaster information, emergency orders,
This is a single-wave simplex wireless communication system that transmits evacuation advice and the like and transmits information to residents. Also, the slave stations 402 and 40
The unit 4 is provided with a simple credit handset, and makes a communication call from the disaster site or the like to the master station such as a disaster situation, an emergency report such as a relief report, or the like. [0003] Next, referring to FIG. 2, an operation at the time of a communication call in the conventional broadcast radio system will be described. FIG. 2 is a time chart of a communication call of the analog broadcast radio system, in which the slave station A makes a communication call to the master station. In FIG. 2, (a) shows a case where there is no broadcast communication from the master station and no communication call from another slave station (slave station B). The slave station A monitors the master station and the slave station B before making the communication call, determines that the communication is not being performed, and starts its own communication call. (B) is a case where there is a broadcast communication from the master station. Since the slave stations A and B are in the receiving state, transmission is not possible and a communication call cannot be made. (C) is a case where the slave station B is making a communication call with the master station. The slave station A is monitoring before the call,
Judgment that it is already in a call with another slave station, and does not make its own call. Further, an example of a digitized time chart for making a communication call in the analog broadcast radio system of FIG. 2 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 3 is a time chart at the time of a communication call of the conventional digital broadcast wireless system, in which the slave station A makes a communication call to the master station. In the digital communication system, a fixed-time frame is multiplexed into two time slots, and a broadcast call and a contact call slot are assigned to each slot, so that a call can be made during broadcast. It becomes. In FIG. 3, (a) shows a case where there is no broadcast communication from the master station and no communication call from another slave station (slave station B). The slave station A monitors the master station and the slave station B before performing the communication call, determines that the communication is not being performed, and starts its own communication using the communication call slot. (B) is a case where there is only a broadcast communication from the master station. The slave stations A and B are in the receiving state in the broadcast slot. The slave station A monitors the communication call slot, determines that the slave station B is not performing a communication call, and starts its own communication call. (C) is a case where there is both a broadcast communication and a communication call. The slave stations A and B are in the receiving state in the broadcast slot. The slave station A monitors the communication call slot, determines that the slave station B is already in communication with the slave station B, and does not make its own communication call. [0006] The above-mentioned prior art includes:
When a slave station makes a call, it is necessary to monitor whether the master station and other slave stations are in a call. However, regarding monitoring of other slave stations, generally, the transmission power from the slave station is small, and there is a system using a directional antenna directed to the master station. In most cases, it was not possible to monitor the reception of transmission signals. For this reason, if it is determined that there is no communication call even when another slave station is in the middle of a communication call and the user starts his / her own communication call, the transmission radio waves of a plurality of slave stations will have a high probability of causing a collision, and There has been a problem of causing interference in station reception. This problem will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 shows an example of digitized data shown in FIG. 3 (c) in a case where a broadcast from the master station and a slave station B have already made a communication call and radio waves between the slave stations collide. The slave station A monitors whether or not the master station and another slave station have already communicated to make a communication call. Here, the transmission radio wave from another slave station does not reach the slave station A, and the slave station A determines that there is no communication call, and starts its own communication call using the communication call slot. Therefore, the slave stations A and B transmit at the same timing, and radio waves collide, and the master station cannot receive. [0008] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a communication call notification function in a master station so that when a communication call is started and ended, the master station sends all the slave stations. Is notified of the start and end of the communication call. Further, when the start of the communication call is notified from the master station, the slave station does not transmit its own communication call until the end is notified. An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIG. FIG. 1 is a time chart showing the operation of a digital broadcast radio system according to the present invention at the time of a communication call, in which a slave station A makes a communication call to a master station. As shown in FIG. 1, a frame of a fixed time is multiplexed into two time slots, and a broadcast communication slot and a communication call slot are allocated to each slot. The master station has a function to notify the start and end of the communication call. In FIG. 1, (a) shows a broadcast of the master station,
This is when there is no communication call from another slave station (slave station B). Since the start of the contact call has not been notified from the master station, slave station A
Notifies the master station of the start of the communication call using the communication slot, and waits for the notification from the master station. The master station, which has been notified of the start of the communication call from the slave station A, notifies all the slave stations of the start of the communication call. Thereafter, the slave station A and the master station are in a communication call, and during this period, the other slave stations perform transmission inhibition control so as not to perform their own communication calls because the master station is in the communication call. . When the end of the communication call of the slave station A is notified to the master station, the master station notifies the end of the communication call to all slave stations and waits for a new communication call. In FIG. 1, (b) shows a case where there is only broadcast communication. The slave stations A and B are in the receiving state in the broadcast slot. Since the start of the contact call from the master station has not been notified,
The slave station A notifies the master station of the start of the communication call by using the communication call slot between the broadcast communication slots. Hereinafter, as in the case of (a), by notifying the start and end of the contact call to all the slave stations, the contact call of another slave station during the contact call cannot be performed. In FIG. 1, FIG.
This is when there is already a call from. When the slave station B notifies the master station of the start of the communication call, the master station notifies all the slave stations of the opening of the communication call, so that the slave station A cannot make a communication call. Waiting for the notification of the end of the communication call from the master station, the communication call of the slave station A is performed. According to the present invention, by providing a communication call notification function in the master station, the start and end of the communication call can be notified from the master station to all slave stations. Can monitor the master station and other slave stations without having to monitor them, and can accurately determine that a call is not in progress and start transmission, thus avoiding radio wave collisions between slave stations and preventing interference in master station reception. be able to.
