Definitions
- the present invention relates to a technique for realizing frame transmission/reception while avoiding frame collision.
- CSMA/CA is an abbreviation for Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Avidance.
- the radio waits for a random offset (latency) before transmitting the frame and then checks to see if another radio is transmitting the frame. The radio transmits a frame if no other frame is transmitted. If other frames are being transmitted, the radio will refrain from transmitting by setting a random offset. This avoids frame collisions.
- Such technology is called carrier sense. This method does not require synchronization between wireless devices, and can freely transmit at the timing when a communication request is generated in the wireless device.
- Patent Document 1 discloses the following method.
- the wireless device monitors the transmission timing of surrounding wireless devices by using carrier sense when transmitting the notification frame. Then, the wireless device transmits the notification frame at a timing different from the timing at which the other wireless device transmits the frame. As a result, frame collision due to overlapping frame transmission timings is avoided.
- An object of the present invention is to enable frame transmission/reception while avoiding frame collision without monitoring frame transmission timing from surrounding radios.
- the wireless communication device of the present invention is An offset setting unit that randomly sets the offset each time the reset period for resetting the offset, which is the waiting time until the periodic transmission of the periodic frame is started, is changed, An offset waiting unit that waits for the elapse of a randomly set offset each time the reset period expires, At each expiration of the reset period, the periodic transmission control unit that stops periodic transmission of periodic frames until a randomly set offset elapses and starts periodic transmission of periodic frames after the randomly set offset elapses. And
- the offset is randomly set every time the reset cycle expires. As a result, it becomes possible to realize periodic frame communication while avoiding collision of periodic frames without monitoring the frame transmission timing from surrounding radios.

- the application unit 141 of the wireless device 212 receives the received periodic frame from the data communication unit 142 and performs a prescribed operation. This behavior is determined by user specification or programming. For example, the application unit 141 receives each periodic frame of one or more wireless devices 211 and selects a communication partner from the one or more wireless devices 211. Then, the application unit 141 establishes a connection with the communication partner upon receiving the next periodic frame from the communication partner. When a quick response is required when establishing a connection, the data communication unit 142 may implement such a function. The application unit 141 may perform mutual communication (data exchange) without establishing a connection with the communication partner when the next periodic frame from the selected communication partner is received.
- the wireless device 212 can communicate with one wireless device 211 at a specific timing. For example, the wireless device 212 selects a communication partner from a plurality of wireless devices 211 upon receiving the first periodic frame, and establishes a connection upon receiving the next periodic frame from the communication partner. In this case, it is most efficient to receive the periodic frame from the communication partner twice in succession. Alternatively, when the wireless device 212 needs to exchange data with the communication partner N times, the wireless device 212 receives the periodic frame from the communication partner N times in succession, which is the most efficient.
- the collision probability of the periodic frame from the wireless device 211A in the case where a random offset is set for each transmission of the periodic frame will be described based on FIG.
- the vertical axis represents the frame collision probability
- the horizontal axis represents time.
- the frame collision probability is the probability that a periodic frame from the wireless device 211A collides with a periodic frame from another wireless device 211 at the same time as the reset period. When observed over a long period of time, the average value of the frame collision probabilities is close to the frame collision probability in each time zone. When the frame collision probability increases, the wireless device 212 needs to wait until it successfully receives the periodic frame from the wireless device 211A.
- the graph in FIG. 6 is based on ideal conditions. The graph of FIG. 6 varies depending on various factors such as the number of wireless devices 211, a transmission period of a periodic frame, an offset reset period, and a wireless environment of the system.
- the collision probability of the periodic frame from the wireless device 211A will be described for the case where a random offset is set every time the reset period expires, that is, the case where the first embodiment is applied.
- the average value of frame collision probabilities is equivalent to the frame collision probability in FIG.
- the frame collision probability varies greatly depending on the time period. This is because the collision status of the periodic frames is different for each time zone. This is because, for example, a situation in which a periodic frame collision occurs in a certain time zone continues and a situation in which a periodic frame collision does not occur in another time zone continues. In a time period when the frame collision probability is low, the probability that the wireless device 212 receives the periodic frame from the wireless device 211A is high.
- the time required for the wireless device 212 to successfully receive the periodic frame from the wireless device 211A multiple times is shortened.
- the probability that the wireless device 212 receives the periodic frame from the wireless device 211A is low.
- the wireless device 212 receives the periodic frame from the other wireless device 211, so that the time period is efficiently used. To be done. Then, a random offset is reset in the next time zone. As a result, if the probability that the wireless device 212 receives the periodic frame from the wireless device 211A becomes low, the wireless device 212 may receive the periodic frame from the wireless device 211A.
- an offset having a sufficient length to completely avoid collision of periodic frames is set, but a random offset is set every time the reset period expires.
- the wireless device 212 receives the periodic frames from some of the wireless devices 211 in which the periodic frame collision does not occur in response to the operation and the request of the wireless device 212. Receive continuously.
- the request from the wireless device 212 is, for example, to receive a periodic frame multiple times.
- the wireless device 212 successfully receives the periodic frames in a short time and satisfies the required performance.
- the required performance corresponds to the response performance if a response is required.
- each wireless device 211 waits for a random offset at each reset cycle and transmits the periodic frame within the transmission period of the periodic frame. Therefore, even when the number of wireless devices 211 existing in the vicinity becomes large, the timing at which the wireless device 212 receives the periodic frame from each wireless device 211 becomes uniform in the long term. That is, it is possible to maintain the fairness of the transmission opportunity between the wireless devices 211.
- the transmission timing control unit 110 may start the reset cycle after the offset has elapsed. That is, in FIG. 5, the order of step S130 and step S140 may be exchanged.
- the transmission timing control unit 110 may determine the next offset while waiting for the lapse of the current offset or waiting for the expiration of the current reset cycle.

- the offset setting unit 113 randomly sets an offset each time the reset cycle expires.
- the offset standby unit 114 waits for the lapse of a randomly set offset each time the reset cycle expires.
- the periodic transmission control unit 115 stops the periodic transmission of the periodic frame until the randomly set offset elapses at each expiration of the reset period, and then performs the periodic transmission of the periodic frame after the randomly set offset elapses. Let it start.
- the offset reset period has the following features.
- the reset cycle of the offset is longer than the transmission cycle of the periodic frame.
- the offset reset cycle is longer than the expected completion time of the communication sequence, which is a series of communication with the communication partner.
- a specific example of the communication sequence is a series of communication for establishing a connection, or data exchange executed without establishing a connection.

Specifically, the wireless communication evaluation unit 150 transfers the information of the received periodic frame to the recording unit 130. Then, the recording unit 130 records the passed information in the memory 102.
- a specific example of the information of the periodic frame is shown below.
- (1) Source of periodic frame The transmission source of the periodic frame is set to the periodic frame.
- (2) Received power of periodic frame The received power of the periodic frame is the power of the radio signal of the periodic frame detected when the periodic frame is received.
