Sequence considered at several RouterNodes - WaveNet
With this example you can follow the process of a RingCast. This RingCast contains:
- Branches
- Redundant paths of different lengths
The input signal in this example is 1.
Extension 1
Input signal 1 at RN2 "Initiator".
Extension 2
This is the second time in the example that the "initiator" distributes the input signal 1 via a RingCast. The input counter reading in the initiator is therefore 2. All other RouteNodes in the RingCast have first received the input signal via a RingCast and therefore the input counter reading is 1.
Extension 3
The RN2 "Initiator" transmits data packet (cable connection or radio connection if cable connection failed or not available).
Target partner | Input signal and input counter reading |
|---|---|
RN2-1 |
|
Extension 4
The RN2-1 receives the data packet and checks the conditions one after the other. Actual target partner and Input counter reading in data package > currently stored input counter reading. Both conditions are met → RN2-1 accepts the data packet and stores the input counter reading of the data packet in its own input counter reading.
If the data packet is transmitted wirelessly, then other router nodes within range will also receive the data packet. The condition Actual target partner is not fulfilled, these RouterNodes discard the data packet.
Extension 5
RN2-1 transmits data packet (cable connection or radio connection if cable connection failed or not available).
Target partner | Input signal and input counter reading |
|---|---|
RN2-2 |
|
Extension 6
The RN2-2 receives the data packet and checks the conditions one after the other. Actual target partner and Input counter reading in data package > currently stored input counter reading. Both conditions are met → RN2-2 accepts the data packet and saves the input counter reading of the data packet in its own input counter reading.
If the data packet is transmitted wirelessly, then other router nodes within range will also receive the data packet. The condition Actual target partner is not fulfilled, these RouterNodes discard the data packet.
Extension 7
RN2-2 transmits data packet (cable connection or radio connection if cable connection failed or not available).
Target partner | Input signal and input counter reading |
|---|---|
RN2-3 |
|
Extension 8
The RN2-3 receives the data packet and checks the conditions one after the other. Actual target partner and Input counter reading in data package > currently stored input counter reading. Both conditions are met → RN2-3 accepts the data packet and saves the input counter reading of the data packet in its own input counter reading.
If the data packet is transmitted wirelessly, then other router nodes within range will also receive the data packet. The condition Actual target partner is not fulfilled, these RouterNodes discard the data packet.
Extension 9
RN2-3 transmits data packet (cable connection or radio connection if cable connection failed or not available).
Target partner | Input signal and input counter reading |
|---|---|
RN2-4 RN2-4A |
|
The WaveNet Manager recognises that the radio networks of RN2-4 and RN2-4A do not influence each other and can therefore simultaneously propagate the input signal. This accelerates the RingCast.
Extension 10
RN2-4 and RN2-4 receive the data packet and checks the conditions one after the other Actual target partner and Input counter reading in data package > currently stored input counter reading. Both conditions are met → RN2-4 and RN2-4 accept the data packet and save the input counter reading of the data packet in its own input counter reading.
If the data packet is transmitted wirelessly, then other router nodes within range will also receive the data packet. The condition Actual target partner is not fulfilled, these RouterNodes discard the data packet.
Extension 11
RN2-4 transmits data packet (cable connection or radio connection if cable connection failed or not available).
Target partner | Input signal and input counter reading |
|---|---|
RN2-5 |
|
RN2-4A transmits data packet (cable connection or radio connection if cable connection failed or not available).
Target partner | Input signal and input counter reading |
|---|---|
RN2-4B |
|
Extension 12
RN2-5 and RN2-4B receive the data packet and checks the conditions one after the other Actual target partner and Input counter reading in data package > currently stored input counter reading. Both conditions are met → RN2-5 and RN2-4B accept the data packet and save the input counter reading of the data packet in its own input counter reading.
If the data packet is transmitted wirelessly, then other router nodes within range will also receive the data packet. The condition Actual target partner is not fulfilled, these RouterNodes discard the data packet.
Extension 13
RN2-5 transmits data packet (cable connection or radio connection if cable connection failed or not available).
Target partner | Input signal and input counter reading |
|---|---|
RN2 "Initiator" |
|
RN2-4B transmits data packet (cable connection or radio connection if cable connection failed or not available).
Target partner | Input signal and input counter reading |
|---|---|
RN2-4C |
|
Extension 14
The RN2 "Initiator" receives the data packet and checks the conditions one after the other. Actual target partner and Input counter reading in data package > currently stored input counter reading. The condition Input counter reading in the data packet > currently stored input counter reading is not fulfilled (same input counter reading) → The RN2-"Initiator" does not accept the data packet and terminates the RingCast as "Initiator" RouterNode.
The RN2-4C receives the data packet and checks the conditions one after the other. Actual target partner and Input counter reading in data package > currently stored input counter reading. Both conditions are met → RN2-4C accepts the data packet and saves the input counter reading of the data packet in its own input counter reading.
If the data packet is transmitted wirelessly, then other router nodes within range will also receive the data packet. The condition Actual target partner is not fulfilled, these RouterNodes discard the data packet.
Extension 15
RN2-4C transmits data packet (cable connection).
Target partner | Input signal and input counter reading |
|---|---|
RN2-5 |
|
Extension 16
The RN2-5 receives the data packet and checks the conditions one after the other. Actual target partner and Input counter reading in data package > currently stored input counter reading. The condition Input signal not saved as received is not satisfied (same Input counter reading) → RN2-5 discards the data packet.
If the data packet is transmitted wirelessly, then other router nodes within range will also receive the data packet. The condition Actual target partner is not fulfilled, these RouterNodes discard the data packet.
