  • Patent number: 6728541
    Abstract: A plurality of radio relay stations 1 are connected so that bi-directional ring-like paths are made up of radio transmission paths. The respective radio relay stations 1 bidirectionally transmit data inputted from terminals placed thereunder onto the bidirectional ring-like paths respectively. The respective data are respectively received by radio relay stations 2 having data destination terminals placed thereunder along the bidirectional ring-like paths. Each radio relay station, which has received the data destined for the terminals placed thereunder from both directions, transmits earlier incoming data to each terminal placed thereunder and discards later incoming data. Thus, a radio relay system can be implemented which is capable of relaying data with a high degree of reliability.

  • Patent number: 4855993
    Abstract: A ring network data transmission system includes a plurality of transmission apparatuses, at least one terminal connected to each of the transmission apparatuses and double ring transmission paths interconnecting the transmission apparatuses in a ring-like system configuration so that terminals can communicate with one another through the associated transmission apparatuses. When a transmission fault occurs in the network, the transmission apparatus which can serve as the master station issues to all of the other transmission apparatuses a command for searching the fault location. In response to the reception of the command, each of the other transmission apparatuses sends out a monitor signal containing its own address and at the same time checks monitor signal received.

  • Patent number: 4704714
    Abstract: A looped data transmission system has a pair of looped transmission lines forming two transmission systems having different transmission directions, and a plurality of stations including at least one control station connected to said transmission lines of the two transmission systems. If a fault occurs in the two transmission lines of the two transmission systems in the same section, a loopback configuration is established such that stations adjacent to the faulty section send signals from one system back to the other system. With the loopback configuration being established, the stations which have received supervisory signals sent from a loopback end station send them back to the transmission line of the other system. When one of the loopback end stations has received a supervisory signal from the direction of the faulty section, it is judged that a portion of the faulty section is recovered, and the result of the judgement is communicated to the control station.

  • Patent number: 4604742
    Abstract: A loop type data transmission system based on a token pass principle, wherein a station whose transmission of data is completed passes therethrough a token to the stations located downstream. The station demanding the transmission acquires the right of transmission when received the token, to perform data transmission with a given station. The token signal is classified into a free token representative of the freedom of the line and a busy token representative of occupation of the line. Among a plurality of stations, only one station is destined to execute detection of transmission failure and remedy thereof. This one station is adapted to convert the free token detected upon reconstitution and repeating of the received information into the busy signal and subsequently re-send the free token. The station having sent out the free token after the completed data transmission is transferred to the state for reconstituting and repeating the received information when the busy token returns to that station.

  • Patent number: 4530085
    Abstract: This invention discloses a loop-back control method for loop-type data transmission systems in which, when a trouble occurs on both transmission lines of two systems, two stations adjacent to the trouble region return signals toward a control station in response to a command from the control station, thereby to separate the trouble region and continue the operation. According to this invention, when the control station detects the occurrence of a trouble on the transmission lines of the two systems, it sends out a broadcast command to search for the trouble point to the transmission lines of both systems and thereafter a loop-back command is issued so that the stations adjacent to the trouble point can loop-back the transmission.

  • Patent number: 4510494
    Abstract: A loop type data highway system in which a plurality of data transmission control stations (abbreviated herein as stations) are connected in cascade to a loop transmission line. Each of the stations responds to a polling frame inquiring of request for reservation of the transmission line. The polling frame is composed of a first field for inquiring of the line reservation request and a second field indicative of whether the line is reserved or not. Each station receives signals inputted from the upstream side along the line and sequentially repeats them to the downstream side along the line without delay. In the station having the line reservation requests, a pattern representative of the line reservation is written in the second field after reception of the first field and sends out the polling frame to the downstream. When the second field as received indicates the non-reserved state of the transmission line, transmission of data is initiated in succession to the second field.

  • Patent number: 4432054
    Abstract: A duplex transmission control system having active and inactive systems for totally controlling a looped transmission line on which computers and terminal devices are connected through respective stations. Each transmission control unit is operable to transmit and receive specific data related to the priority level specified for each unit. Each transmission control unit suspends the transmission of the clock for a certain period in response to the detection of the clock suspension, then transmits the specific priority data. When a transmission control unit detects its own transmitted signal, it is designated as the active system when another transmission control unit receives the signal defining the active system, it is designated as the inactive system.
