  • Page 43: Product Architecture

    Product Architecture The PTP 600 Series Bridge consists of an identical pair of units deployed one at each end of the link. The radio link operates on a single frequency channel in each direction using Time Division Duplex (TDD). One unit is deployed as a master and the other as a slave. The master unit takes responsibility for controlling the link in both directions.
  • Page 44 IEEE 802.1p. IEEE 802.1p uses Ethernet packets extended by 4 bytes, as specified in IEEE 802.1q for VLAN tagging, to prioritize packets over the wireless interface. The PTP 600 Series Bridge will forward all VLAN tagged packets regardless of the VLAN ID value.

The PTP 600 Series Bridge uses statistical techniques to select the most appropriate transmit and receive channels. I- DFS can be influenced in its channel decision process by selectively barring channels from use.
  • Page 47 Introducing the Time Division Duplex (TDD) Synchronization Feature 5.2.1 The Problem The TDD cycles from multiple links have different durations due to different link lengths. This implies that one or both ends of multiple links interfere with each other when operating on the same or adjacent channels.

  • Page 52 To address the primary aims the Spectrum Management algorithm implements a radar detection function which looks for impulsive interference on the active channel only. If impulsive interference is detected Spectrum Management will mark the current active channel as having detected radar and initiate a channel hop to an available channel. The previous active channel will remain in the radar detected state for thirty minutes after the last impulsive interference pulse was detected.
  • Page 53 5.4.2 RTTT Avoidance and Other Channel Use Restrictions Where regulatory restrictions apply to certain channels these channels are barred. The user should note that the number of channels barred is dependant on the channel raster selected. For example see the effect of the UK RTTT channel restrictions in F igure 16.
