DYNAMIC IMPROVEMENT OF LINK SYMMETRY IN CO-LOCATED PLC AND RF NETWORKS

摘要

An electronic communication device (102,104) comprises a first transceiver (106, 110) capable of a bi-directional communication session on a first communication medium (114); a second transceiver (108, 112) capable of a bi-directional communication session on a second communication medium (116); and a control logic (118, 110) coupled to the first transceiver and the second transceiver and capable of implementing a convergence layer, wherein the control logic is configured to receive, from the first transceiver, a first signal; and to cause, in response to the first signal, data received and transmitted as part of a communication session by the first transceiver (106, 110) on the first communication medium (114) instead to be received and transmitted by the second transceiver (108, 112) on the second communication medium (116).
