Appl. No.:

09/847005

Inventors:

Gabriel K. Wong - Honolulu HI, US

Assignee:

Digicomm, Ltd. - Honolulu HI

International Classification:

H04Q 7/20
H04B 7/00

US Classification:

455450, 455509, 455510, 455515, 455516, 455517

Abstract:

A network communication system is provided for communication between network nodes, including individual nodes and a central control station node. In the network, signals are transmitted from the central control node to identify specific timeslots in which individual nodes may transmit a request signal to the central control node. When a first individual node then has data to transmit, the first individual node transmits a request signal to the central control node in its identified timeslot and includes a request for a bandwidth amount allocation. In response to the request signal, the central control node transmits a grant signal which identifies the first individual node allowing it to transmit its data to the central control node over the bandwidth requested. The first individual node then in response to the grant signal, transmits its data over specific timeslots to the central control node.

Abstract:

A network communication system is provided for communication between network nodes, including individual nodes and a central control station node. In the network, signals are transmitted from the central control node to identify specific timeslots in which individual nodes may transmit a request signal to the central control node. When a first individual node then has data to transmit, the first individual node transmits a request signal to the central control node in its identified timeslot requesting allocation of time for transmitting a specified amount of data. In response to the request signal, the central control node transmits a grant signal specifying at least one timeslot allocated to the node for transmit its data to the central control node. The first individual node then in response to the grant signal, transmits its data over the specific timeslots.

Abstract:

A network communication system is provided for communication between network nodes, including individual nodes and a central control station node. In the network, signals are transmitted from the central control node to identify one or more frequencies that the node may transmit. When a first individual node has data to transmit, the first individual node transmits a request signal to the central control node over one or more of its assigned frequencies. In response to the request signal, the central control node transmits a grant signal assigning one or more frequencies to allow the first node to transmit its data.

When a first individual node has data to transmit, the first individual node transmits a request signal to the central control node in its identified timeslot, the request including randomly generated information for identification of the node. In response to the request signal, the central control node transmits a grant signal along with the randomly generated information back to the first node to allow the first node to identify the grant.

Assignee:

International Classification:

H04B 7/00

US Classification:

455 661, 370347

Abstract:

A network node in a communication system makes two reservation requests to a controller node in order for the network node to obtain resources from the controller to transmit data. In the network, downstream signals are transmitted from the controller to identify a first slot in which nodes may transmit random access requests to the controller. When a first node has data to transmit, the first node transmits a random access request signal to the controller in the first slot. The controller then transmits a downstream signal assigning a second slot for the first node to transmit a reserve request signal. In response the first node transmits a reserve request signal in the second slot. The controller then transmits a downstream signal which allocates resources to the first node to transmit its data.

Abstract:

A communication system is provided for communication between network nodes and a communication controller. In the network, a request signal is transmitted from a first node to the communication controller when the first node has a packet data message to transmit. The communication controller then acknowledges the request, and the first node transmits its data message in response. The communication controller further transmits a clocking signal allowing synchronization of the node signals with the controller signals. The clocking signal, request, acknowledgement and data message can all be provided on different frequencies, allowing simultaneous transmission of these signals for efficient operation.

International Classification:

H04W 72/00

US Classification:

455450, 370458

Abstract:

A communication system is provided for communication between network nodes and a communication controller. In the network, a request signal is transmitted from a node to the communication controller in one of two separate timeslots to enable transmission of a signal from the individual node. A first one of the reservation timeslots provides for random access requests that can be made by multiple ones of the nodes. A second one of the timeslots is assigned exclusively to the one node. The first random access request timeslot can be used to carry requests for assignment of an exclusive node, while the second exclusively assigned reservation request timeslot can be provided to carry requests to transmit packets containing alphanumeric data.

US Classification:

455 661, 370347

Abstract:

A network communication system is provided for communication between network nodes, including individual nodes and a communication controller. In the network, signals are transmitted from the communication controller to identify a slot of a frame in which individual nodes may transmit a request to transmit data. When a first individual node has data to transmit, the first node transmits a request signal to the controller in its identified slot, the request including randomly generated information (RGI) for identification of the node. In response to the request signal, the controller transmits a grant signal along with the RGI back to the first node to allow the first node to identify the grant.
