  1. Wireless Serial Overview

  2. Serial Over Broadband • Serial Interface on 195E products • Serial Data Transferred Over Ethernet System • Configure Ethernet links first • Troubleshooting and diagnostic of WLAN network • Serial Links are Transparent • Two Modes of Operation • Point to Point • Multicast

  3. Serial Interface Layout Second Ethernet Port RS-232 Configuration RS-232 Data Port RJ-45 10/100BaseT Ethernet Port Reset Switch Status LED Aux Power LED Receive LED 12 VDC Input (Auxiliary Connector ) Transmit LED Power over Ethernet LED

  4. Serial Port Configuration • Single Page Configuration on Setup • Data Rate, Parity, Start/Stop Bits • Transmission Characters • Data Format • Multipoint System • All remote sites will receive the data • Set to multicast address • Separate Networks with Port Number

  5. Serial and Ethernet Networks • Hybrid of Both Serial and Ethernet Interface • Both Serial and Ethernet Network Can Work Simultaneously • Legacy systems • Adding in new locations to existing site • Providing video link on serial network • Serial Network has Little Impact on Bandwidth

  6. Theory Of Operation (Licensed) • Narrow Band Packet Burst • Single Narrow Band Radio Channel • Carrier Sensed Multiple Access (CSMA) • Listen before transmit • Multiple users on one frequency • Collision Detection • Fixed delay + random variable = time

  7. Theory Of Operation (Licensed) • Networking • Single Frequency Channel • Model 192C/CHP/M/MHP/F • 1600 channels (12.5 kHz spacing) • 3200 channels (6.25 kHz spacing) • Up to 256 cells per channel • Network ID • Range 0 to 255 • 254 Users per cell • Unit Address • Range 1 to 254 per cell

  8. Theory Of Operation (Licensed) • Spectrum Utilization • Multiple frequencies available in band • 20 kHz channel spacing in low band VHF • 12.5 kHz or 5 kHz channel spacing in high VHF • 25 kHz channel spacing - UHF (Grandfather) • 12.5 kHz channel spacing - UHF (Current) • 6.25 kHz channel spacing - UHF (?) • Simplex Radio • Only one channel needed per site

  9. Theory Of Operation (Licensed) • Digi-Repeating • Store and Forward Data Transfer • Maximum of Three Repeaters in Any String • Acknowledge comes from destination ESTeem - not from first repeater

  10. Digi-Repeating Diagram Add 30 Data 2nd Repeater Add 20 Data 1st Repeater 3rd Repeater Data Add 40 Data Source Add 10 Destination Add 50

  11. Theory Of Operation (Licensed) • Error Detection • Forward Error Correction • Every 4th Bit is Error Correct • 32 Bit CRC • Retry

  12. Noise Immunity • High EMF Noise Rejection • Narrow Band FM • CSMA-CD • Error Detection • Retry • Forward Error Correction • Receiver Squelch • Narrow receiver band • Four level squelch

  13. Packet Protocols • Master/Master Communications • Any ESTeem can act as master • No dedicated Master/Slave relationship • Simplicity in maintaining spares • No Token Packets • Transmit only when data to send • Opens up radio spectrum for multiple users

  14. Data Privacy • Network Privacy • Address • 1 to 254 • Network ID • 0 to 255 • Operating Frequencies • 1600 @ 12.5 kHz • 3200 @ 6.25 kHz

  15. Data Privacy • Network Privacy • Programming Lockout Codes • Security ON/OFF • 0 to 65,536 • Data Rate • 51 • Embedded Subcode • Internal Firmware • 0 to 255 • Total Combinations to Access Data • 1 in 1.35 Trillion (1.35 E12)

  16. Packet Frame Block Diagram Transmitted Frame Data 1 to 2000 Bytes (8 to 16000 Bits) 32 Bit CRC Polynomial Start Flags Destination Address Source Address Network Frame Overhead: 64 to 118 bits Start Of Transmission • Packlength Buffer Full • Sendpack Character Received • Termcontrol Timer Enabled and Timed Out End Of Transmission Acknowledge Frame 32 Bit CRC Polynomial Start Flags Destination Address Source Address Network
