Problems solved by technology

A highly available, seamlessly redundant ring communication network (High-availability Seamless Redundancy, HSR) can solve the problem of packet loss, but the forwarding mechanism of the ring communication network makes its communication efficiency relatively low, because each node is receiving data packets It is necessary to judge the type of the data packet first to decide whether to forward or stop the data packet. At the Ethernet rate of 100Mbit / s, the delay time for the data packet to pass through each node is at least 2us. When there are many nodes , the communication cycle will become longer until it is unacceptable, so the ring communication network is only suitable for substation automation and other applications, but it is powerless for applications with high real-time requirements. node, HSR did not propose a corresponding method
[0006] At present, there is no suitable method of adding or removing nodes suitable for the scenario of industrial communication system for mission-critical applications

Embodiment 1

[0058] Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a method for adding or removing slave nodes in a ring communication network, which can be applied to the existing HSR network or to the preferred ring communication network described above. The flow chart is as follows image 3 shown, including:

[0059] Step S301: the master node determines the position of the slave node to join the network according to the modified feedback frame received from all the slave nodes;

[0060] The to-be-joined slave node modifies the feedback frame when forwarding the feedback frames of other slave nodes.

[0061] The feedback frame can be the feedback frame sent by the other slave nodes for the command frame of the master node, or it can be the feedback frame sent by other slave nodes to the master node for other types of frames. Here, the The feedback frame is used to feed back the information of the slave node to the master node, and the master node does not need to use a special query fr...

Embodiment 2

[0087] Embodiment 2 of the present invention provides a method for adding or subtracting slave nodes in a ring communication network. The structural diagram of the ring communication network used to illustrate the method is as follows Figure 4 As shown, including a master node and 4 slave nodes.

[0088] After the system is powered on, the default network ID of the master node is 0, and the default network ID of the slave node is 255. After the self-inspection of the master node is completed, the encoding and sorting of the network is initiated through the network port B, and a network ID number is re-assigned to each slave node in sequence. The master node encodes the 4 slave nodes in sequence to establish the correspondence between the network ID and the logical ID The relational table is initialized at this time. The network connection relationship when the initialization is completed is Figure 4 shown. The correspondence table is as shown in Table (1).

Embodiment 3

[0099] Based on the same inventive concept as that of Embodiment 1 of the present invention, Embodiment 3 of the present invention provides a method for adding or removing slave nodes in a ring communication network, the flow chart of which is as follows Figure 9 shown, including:

[0100] Step S901: the slave node to be added modifies the feedback frame when forwarding the feedback frame of other slave nodes;

[0101] The feedback frame can be the feedback frame sent by the other slave nodes for the command frame of the master node, or it can be the feedback frame sent by other slave nodes to the master node for other types of frames. Here, the The feedback frame is used to feed back the information of the slave node to the master node, and the master node does not need to use a special query frame to obtain the information that the slave node has joined, so it can reduce additional bandwidth overhead and improve system performance.

[0102] The modification feedback frame ...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method, device and system for increasing or decreasing slave nodes in a ring communication network. The method includes: the master node determines the slave nodes to join the network according to the modified feedback frames received from all the slave nodes. location, and according to the location, modify the corresponding relationship between the logical identifier and the network identifier; send a coded frame carrying the network identifier to the slave node to be added, and instruct the slave node to modify its own network identifier to be Encode the network identifier carried in the frame. On the one hand, since no special query frame is needed, additional bandwidth overhead can be reduced; on the other hand, since the feedback frame is used to obtain the location information of the node to join the network, only one communication cycle is required to complete the slave node Joining the network, therefore, ensures that the communication system will not lose packets, synchronization performance will not decrease, and communication efficiency will not decrease during the process of adding or subtracting nodes.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to communication technology, in particular to a method, device and system for increasing or decreasing slave nodes in a ring communication network. Background technique [0002] In industrial communication systems for mission-critical applications, since availability and reliability are key issues, communication network redundancy is an important feature of industrial communication systems requiring high availability. Compared to redundancy schemes such as Parallel Redundancy Protocol, ring topology can provide a lower cost technical solution. In a ring network, each node has two communication ports connected to two adjacent nodes, so the ring network can operate in either or both directions providing resilience against link failure. [0003] However, in some industrial applications, such as uninterruptible power supply, in addition to requiring high availability and high communication efficiency, it is also required that...
