Abstract: TDMA communications between a host device and a number of clients on a communications channel are dynamically adapted to allocate or de-allocate time slots in response to changes in the number of active clients. The system initially operates in a startup mode in which the host device transmits a startup message on the communications channel and assigns a timeslot in a TDMA cycle in response to connection requests received from each of the requesting clients. After exiting the startup mode, the system operates in a normal mode in which the host device initiates the TDMA cycle by transmitting a polling message on the communications channel that indicates a number of timeslots occurring within that particular TDMA cycle. The host changes the number of timeslots indicated in the polling message to responsively adapt duration of the TDMA cycle as the number of clients communicating via the communications channel changes.

Abstract: Automated processes, devices and systems isolate signals received on first and second ports from each other using staggered time division multiple access (TDMA) schemes. Additionally or alternately, port and/or client identifiers can be included within communications propagating in multiple TDMA schemes, thereby allowing host and/or client devices to verify that communications are received on the intended ports. By logically isolating the communications of the multiple TDMA schemes and/or by providing identifying information within propagated communications, crosstalk between the two schemes can be substantially reduced or eliminated, often without substantial modifications to the hardware configuration of the system.

Abstract translation: 主机设备和通信信道上的多个客户端之间的TDMA通信被动态地适应于响应于活动客户端的数量的变化而分配或解除分配时隙。 该系统最初以启动模式操作,其中主机设备在通信信道上发送启动消息,并响应于从每个请求客户端接收到的连接请求在TDMA周期中分配时隙。 在退出启动模式之后,系统以普通模式工作,其中主机设备通过在通信信道上发送指示在该特定TDMA周期内发生的时隙的数量的轮询消息来发起TDMA周期。 随着通过通信信道通信的客户端数量的改变,主机改变在轮询消息中指示的时隙的数量以响应地适应TDMA周期的持续时间。
