METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING FULL-DUPLEX COMMUNICATIONS USING A G.HN PROTOCOL

Methods and apparatus for performing full-duplex communications using a G.hn protocol are provided. A second node of a plurality of nodes is selected, by a first node with which to engage in full-duplex communications. A first seed common to the plurality of nodes is retrieved. A search is performed for a second seed assigned to the second node. A first portion of a frame is generated for transmission using a half-duplex communications mode, wherein transmissions using the half-duplex communications mode are detectable by each of the nodes. A first group of subcarriers is loaded with the firstset of phases generated using the first seed and a second group of subcarriers is loaded with the second set of phases generated using the second seed. The first portion is transmitted, in the half-duplex communications mode, from the first node using the first and second groups of subcarriers. 提供了用于使用G.hn协议来执行全双工通信的方法和装置。由第一节点选择多个节点中的与其进行全双工通信的第二节点。多个节点共用的第一种子被取回。针对被指派给第二节点的第二种子执行搜索。帧的第一部分被生成用于使用半双工通信模式的传输，其中使用半双工通信模式的传
