Virtual TSN Bridge Port Mapping for Seamless Wireless Streams

The patent applies dynamics by making the stream setup process adaptive to changing wireless conditions. Instead of using fixed latency values, the system dynamically measures actual latency between bridges and adjusts stream reservations accordingly. This allows the TSN to adapt to mobility and channel changes while maintaining reliable communication, resolving the contradiction between wireless adaptability and stream stability.

The patent changes the parameter approach by transitioning from static latency parameters to dynamic latency measurements. The system continuously monitors and updates latency values between virtual bridges, using these updated parameters to maintain stream reservations. This parameter adaptation enables reliable stream setup in wireless environments where latency naturally varies, addressing the reliability issue while preserving wireless functionality.

The patent implements feedback by continuously monitoring latency between virtual bridges and using this information to adjust stream reservations. Instead of declaring failure when latency changes, the system measures the actual latency, compares it against requirements, and adapts the reservation accordingly. This feedback mechanism maintains communication continuity while preserving accurate latency monitoring, resolving the contradiction between precision and continuity.

The patent applies beforehand cushioning by establishing margin-based stream reservations that can accommodate expected latency variations. The system reserves additional time margins in stream setups to cushion against natural latency fluctuations in wireless environments. This approach prevents premature stream failures while maintaining accurate latency awareness, addressing both monitoring precision and service continuity.
