AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing industrial Ethernet communication systems, the continuous operation of the physical layer and data link processing circuits leads to wasted power consumption, which affects system endurance and stability, especially in industrial scenarios with low power consumption and heat constraints.

Method used

By detecting the start and end of data frames while the physical layer communication chip is continuously working, the data link processing circuit is only turned on during the data frame transmission and processing phases and immediately turned off after processing is completed. Combined with the frame start and end detection circuit and buffer design, the DLP circuit can be started and stopped on demand, reducing the useless power consumption during idle periods and the minimum interval between frames.

Benefits of technology

While meeting the real-time requirements of industrial Ethernet, it significantly reduces the power consumption of the communication system, adapts to industrial scenarios with power consumption and heat dissipation requirements, and improves system endurance and stability.

Abstract

The application discloses a control method, a communication system, a device and a storage medium. The method comprises the following steps: detecting the start and end of a data frame in a state in which a physical layer communication chip (PHY) continuously works; starting a data link processing (DLP) circuit when the start of the data frame is detected; and closing the DLP circuit after the end of the data frame is detected and the DLP circuit completes processing of the current data frame. The method effectively reduces the useless power consumption of the DLP during an idle period of the communication system and a minimum interval period between continuous communication frames, retains the real-time capability for random burst transmission, solves the defect of power waste, and is suitable for industrial scenes with requirements for power consumption or heat generation.
