This invention provides a
wireless communication link selection method and a half-duplex communication
system for selecting multiple physical
wireless communication links between a
transmitter and a
receiver in a half-duplex communication
system. Both the
transmitter and
receiver are equipped with switching switches and antennas. The method includes: the
transmitter and
receiver synchronously and sequentially switching their respective antennas into working states according to their pre-stored switching switch timing sequences; when any
transmitter antenna and any receiver antenna are simultaneously in working states, a
wireless communication link is formed, and each wireless
communication link is traversed at least once; during the transmission period of any wireless communication link, the receiver transmits unidirectional
heartbeat packets or time-division bidirectional
heartbeat packets with the transmitter through the current wireless communication link; the transmitter and / or receiver that receives the
heartbeat packet selects the optimal wireless communication link from the multiple wireless communication links based on the
signal strength and packet error rate during the heartbeat
packet transmission process.
