- the bandwidth management unit 5 sets the amount of data that can be output (number of bytes that can be output) to the amount of remaining data that can be output (number of bytes that can be output) for each predetermined period. That is, the bandwidth management unit 5 performs a process of resetting the remaining number of outputtable bytes to return to the number of outputtable bytes at every predetermined period. Specifically, the bandwidth management unit 5 loads the number of bytes that can be output per unit time to the number of bytes that can be output for each reset period.
- the distribution unit 6 calculates a value indicating the ratio of the remaining data amount that can be output to the data amount that can be output.

- the allocating unit 6 may calculate the remaining output weight using Equation 1 illustrated below.
- Remaining output weight number of bytes that can be output / number of bytes that can be output per unit time (Equation 1)
- the distribution unit 6 distributes the frame to the line having the largest remaining output weight. That is, the line on which the divided data frame is output is the line with the largest remaining output weight.
- FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of processing for distributing frames.
- frames are distributed using two lines (line 1 and line 2).
- line 1 and line 2 the line 1 illustrated in FIG. 8 has 1200 outputable bytes per unit time
- the line 2 has 600 outputable bytes per unit time.
- frames are denoted by # and 15 frames # 1 to # 15 are transmitted. Note that the number of bytes in the frame is all 200.
- the number of bytes that can be output per unit time is set as the number of bytes that can be output at time t1, the number of bytes that can be output on line 1 is 1200, and the number of bytes that can be output on line 2 is 600.
- the distribution unit 6 calculates the remaining output weight as the distribution process. At time t1, the remaining output weights of the line 1 and the line 2 have the same value, so the allocating unit 6 distributes the frame # 1 to the line 1 having a smaller number.
- the distribution unit 6 subtracts 200 from the remaining number of bytes that can be output from the line 1 and calculates 1000.
- the allocating unit 6 calculates the remaining output weight of the line 1 as about 0.83 and calculates the remaining output weight of the line 2 as 1.00. Therefore, the distribution unit 6 distributes the frame # 2 to the line 2 having a larger remaining output weight. Then, the distribution unit 6 calculates 400 by subtracting 200 the remaining number of bytes that can be output from the line 2.
- the allocating unit 6 calculates the remaining output weight of the line 1 as about 0.83 and calculates the remaining output weight of the line 2 as about 0.67. Therefore, the distribution unit 6 distributes the frame # 3 to the line 1 having a larger remaining output weight. Thereafter, the same processing is repeated.
- the bandwidth management unit 5 sets the number of bytes that can be output per unit time as the number of bytes that can be output. That is, the remaining number of bytes that can be output from line 1 is set to 1200, and the number of bytes that can be output from line 2 is set to 600.
- the bandwidth management unit 5 sets the remaining number of outputtable bytes to the control frame generation unit 7. Notify The control frame generation unit 7 generates dummy frames for the number of remaining outputtable bytes and outputs the dummy frames to the arbitration unit 9.
- the allocating unit 6 compares the remaining output weights between the lines and performs the distribution process, the line 1 and the line 2 correspond to the number of bytes that can be output per unit time. Frames are output evenly.
- the allocating unit 6 does not output the divided data frame to the line having the largest remaining output possible number of bytes but to the line having the largest remaining output weight. Therefore, there is no time bias, and frames can be output equally to each line.
- FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram showing an operation example when a frame is output to a line having the largest number of remaining outputtable bytes.
- the number of bytes that can be output from line 1 is equal to or greater than the number of bytes that can be output from line 2. Therefore, during this period, the frames are not distributed evenly, and are distributed only to the line 1. Thereafter, after the remaining number of bytes that can be output on the line 1 falls below the number of bytes that can be output on the line 2, the frames are alternately allocated to the lines 1 and 2.

- the state in which the function for expanding the output band is executed is referred to as an output band increase mode, and the state in which the function for narrowing the output band is executed is referred to as an output band reduction mode.
- the output band reduction mode is set in the initial state, and processing for narrowing the output band is performed.
- the bandwidth management unit 5 sets the output bandwidth of the target line to be narrow.
- the new output band is calculated based on the number of frames and the number of bytes received from the communication device 15.
- the arbitrating unit 9 of the communication device 1 counts the number of frames and the number of bytes of the transmitted divided data frame and dummy frame.
- the counted value is held, for example, in a memory (not shown) included in the arbitration unit 9.
- the arbitration unit 9 does not count the number of frames and the number of bytes of the control frame.
- the control frame generation unit 7 generates a control frame at a predetermined timing and inputs it to the arbitration unit 9.
- the arbitrating unit 9 sets the number of frames to be held in the own device transmission frame number 37 of the input control frame 32 and sets the number of bytes to be held in the own device transmission byte number 38 of the control frame 32. Then, the arbitration unit 9 transmits the control frame 32 in which the number of frames and the number of bytes are set to the communication device 15. When the control frame 32 is transmitted, the arbitration unit 9 resets the number of frames and bytes to be held to zero.
- the filter unit 10 of the communication device 15 When receiving the divided data frame and the dummy frame, the filter unit 10 of the communication device 15 counts the number of frames and the number of bytes of the received frame. The counted value is held in, for example, a memory (not shown) included in the filter unit 10. The filter unit 10 does not count the number of control frames and the number of bytes.
- the filter unit 10 When receiving the control frame, the filter unit 10 transmits the received control frame to the control frame processing unit 11. At the same time, the filter unit 10 notifies the control frame processing unit 11 of the counted number of frames and bytes.

Further, the control frame processing unit 11 notifies the control frame generation unit 7 of the own communication device 15 of the number of bytes notified from the filter unit 10 of the own communication device 15 as the received device byte count.
- the control frame generation unit 7 of the communication device 15 sets the number of opposite device transmission frames notified from the control frame processing unit 11 as the number of opposite device transmission frames 33 of the control frame 32.
