Abstract

PURPOSE:To confirm the transmittal by allowing a transmission station to add a sequence number to information and to send the resulting information, to send periodically the sequence number sent finally and allowing a reception station to request re-transmission when the sequence number added to the received information and the sequence number received periodically are dissident. CONSTITUTION:When a transmission station sends information in a transmission buffer 1-1 to plural reception stations, a transmission sequence number counter 1-3 increments and adds the result to information in a transmission buffer 1-2 and sends the result to a communication channel. On the other hand, when the reception station receives the information, the sequence number added to the information is stored in a reception sequence number counter 2-3. The transmission station sends periodically the content of the transmission sequence number counter 1-3 to all the reception stations. Upon the receipt of the sequence number sent periodically, the reception station compares the sequence number with the content of the reception sequence number counter 2-3 and generates a re-transmission request with the reception sequence number added thereto when they are dissident in the transmission buffer 2-1 and sends the request to the transmission station via a transmitter-receiver 2-5.

When transmitting the same information to a plurality of receiving stations, the transmitting station adds the sequence number of the information to be transmitted to the information and transmits the information. Make the sequence number continue to be transmitted periodically. If the sequence number of the information added to the received information and the sequence number that is periodically received do not match, the receiving station determines that the information transmitted by the transmitting station has failed to be received and resends it to the transmitting station. Make a request. The transmitting station retransmits the information to which the sequence number is added according to the request for retransmission.

Since only the station that has failed to receive the request issues the retransmission request, the transmitting station can confirm the delivery in a short time, the control information handled by the transmitting station is small, and the control can be easily performed. . Further, even if the sequence number is unsuccessfully received due to a temporary failure of the line or the like, the sequence number is transmitted periodically, so that the failure of receiving the broadcast information can be detected. If the time for saving the transmitted information is properly set, the information can be transferred reliably.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a basic configuration diagram of a transmitting station for broadcast communication according to the present invention. In the figure, 1-1 is a transmission buffer, 1-2 is a reception buffer, 1-3 is a sequence number counter of information to be transmitted, 1-4 is a CPU for controlling transmission / reception of information, and 1-5 is a communication line. 1 shows a transmitting / receiving device that transmits and receives information. When transmitting the information in the transmission buffer to a plurality of receiving stations, the transmitting station increments the transmission sequence number counter, adds it to the information in the transmitting buffer, and transmits it to the communication line via the transmitting / receiving device. Further, the transmitting station periodically transmits the value of the transmission sequence number counter to all receiving stations. Further, the information received by the transmitting station from the communication line via the transmitting / receiving device is stored in the receiving buffer. Upon receiving the retransmission request, the transmitting station retransmits the information in the transmission buffer to which the sequence number is added.

FIG. 2 is a basic configuration diagram of a receiving station for broadcast communication according to the present invention. In the figure, 2-1 is a transmission buffer, 2-2 is a reception buffer, 2-3 is a sequence number counter of received information, 2-4 is a CPU that controls transmission / reception of information, and 2-5 is information with a communication line. 2 shows a transmission / reception device that transmits and receives. The information received by the receiving station from the communication line via the transmitting / receiving device is stored in the receiving buffer. When the receiving station receives the information, it stores the sequence number added to the information in the received sequence number counter. Also, when the sequence number sent periodically is received, it is compared with the value of the received sequence number counter, and if it is different, the information sent from the time when the last information was received until that point is received. It is determined that the transmission has failed, a retransmission request to which the reception sequence number is added is created in the transmission buffer, and is transmitted to the transmission station via the transmission / reception device. If the receiving station receives information having the same sequence number, it discards it.

Next, the operation of the system will be described with reference to FIG. The transmitting station of the broadcast communication transmits the sequence number at the cycle t. When the transmitting station transmits the information + sequence number to the receiving stations 1 to n and the information + sequence number does not reach the receiving station 2, the receiving station 2 cannot detect the information reception failure at this point. After that, when the receiving station 2 receives the sequence number transmitted periodically, the receiving station 2 detects the information reception failure due to the mismatch of the sequence numbers and requests the transmitting station to resend. Since the transmitting station retransmits the information + sequence number, the receiving station 2 can receive the information + sequence number without omission. Other receiving stations,
The sequence number of the retransmitted information is checked. Since it is equal to the sequence number of the previously received information, the retransmitted information is discarded.

The operation when a plurality of pieces of information are transmitted during the transmission cycle t of the sequence number will be described with reference to FIG. The transmitting station of the broadcast communication transmits the sequence number at the cycle t. Information from transmitting station to receiving stations 1-n 1
When + sequence number 1 is transmitted and the information 1 + sequence number 1 does not reach the receiving station 2, the receiving station 2 cannot detect the information reception failure at this point. Subsequently, when the transmitting station transmits the information 2 + sequence number 2 to the receiving stations 1 to n, and the receiving station 2 receives the information 2 + sequence number 2,
The receiving station 2 detects the information reception failure because the received sequence numbers are discontinuous, and requests the transmitting station to resend. Since the transmitting station retransmits from the information 1 + sequence number 1, the receiving station 2 does not miss the information 1 + sequence number 1
Can be received. All receiving stations check the sequence number of the retransmitted information, and discard the information having the sequence number equal to the sequence number of the previously received information.
