FULL-DUPLEX ETHERNET COMMUNICATIONS OVER COAXIAL LINKS USING TIME-DIVISION DUPLEXING

A coax line terminal coupled to a plurality of coax network units by a coax plant uses time-division duplexing to communicate with the coax network units. In the coax line terminal, a control signal is repeatedly asserted and de-asserted. When the control signal is de-asserted, data are transmitted...

Zusammenfassung:A coax line terminal coupled to a plurality of coax network units by a coax plant uses time-division duplexing to communicate with the coax network units. In the coax line terminal, a control signal is repeatedly asserted and de-asserted. When the control signal is de-asserted, data are transmitted from the coax line terminal to the plurality of coax network units on a specified frequency band. When the control signal is asserted, transmission of the data ceases and data are received from respective coax network units on the specified frequency band.
