Address allocation in multi-station communication system

摘要

When a target communication station receives a communication frame with a target address matching that of the target station, whose allocation address description region contains unused allocation addresses, the target station pulls out an unused allocation address. Then it forms the communication frame whose allocation address description has been actualized by pulling out the allocation address. An address, stored in an address memory region, is actualized by the pulled-out allocation address for allocation to a station. The formed communication frame is sent to the next station so that the communication frame circulates under several stations. An Independent claim is included for a communication system.
