    摘要: A system includes a plurality of controllers associated with the plurality of units of building equipment, each controller comprising a plurality of communication ports, a plurality of cables connected to the plurality of communication ports and linking together the plurality of controllers, wherein the plurality of controllers are configured to self-identify a break in a connection between two the plurality of controllers by monitoring statuses of the plurality of communication ports. The system also includes circuitry configured to receive a signal indicative of the order of the connections between the plurality of controllers from the plurality of controllers, generate a graphical map of the order of the connections between the plurality of controllers based on the signal, receive, from the plurality of controllers, an indication of a break in a connection between two of the plurality of controllers, and update the graphical map to indicate the connection as broken.

    摘要: According to an aspect of an embodiment, a method may include obtaining a first signal at a first port of a communication system. The first signal may include a combination of an incident signal and a reflected signal. The method may include performing a first processing to the first signal. In response to the first processing, the method may include performing a second processing to the first signal. The method may include estimating a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) associated with a transmission line from results of the second processing to the first signal.
