70-458: A MAC layer in combination with a different LLC layer. In the ITU-T G.hn standard, which provides a way to create a high-speed (up to 1 Gigabit/s) local area network using existing home wiring ( power lines , phone lines and coaxial cables ), the data link layer is divided into three sub-layers (application protocol convergence, logical link control and media access control). The data link layer

105-572: A function that computes the r (amount of redundant bits) corresponding to each string of N total number of bits. The simplest error detection code is the parity bit , which allows a receiver to detect transmission errors that have affected a single bit among the transmitted N + r bits. If there are multiple flipped bits then the checking method might not be able to detect this on the receiver side. More advanced methods than parity error detection do exist providing higher grades of quality and features. A simple example of how this works using metadata

Baker Topics referred to by the same term [REDACTED] This disambiguation page lists articles associated with the title IRDA . If an internal link led you here, you may wish to change the link to point directly to

175-518: A network made up of people speaking, i.e. a conversation, they will each pause a random amount of time and then attempt to speak again, effectively establishing a long and elaborate game of saying "no, you first". The Media Access Control sublayer also performs frame synchronization , which determines the start and end of each frame of data in the transmission bitstream . It entails one of several methods: timing-based detection, character counting, byte stuffing, and bit stuffing. The services provided by

210-407: A parameter called "window size" (1–127). Finally, data blocks up to 8 MB can be sent at once. Combined with a low bit error rate of generally <10 , that communication could be very efficient compared to other wireless solutions. IrDA transceivers communicate with infrared pulses (samples) in a cone that extends at least 15 degrees half angle off center. The IrDA physical specifications require

245-532: Is half-duplex . To receive, an external interrupt bit is started by the start bit, then polled a half-bit time after following bits. A timer interrupt is often used to free the CPU between pulses. Power meters' higher protocol levels abandon IrDA standards, typically using DLMS/COSEM instead. With IrDA transceivers (a package combining an IR LED and PIN diode), even this crude IrDA SIR is extremely resistant to external optical noise from incandescents, sunlight, etc. IrDA

280-431: Is analogous to a neighborhood traffic cop; it endeavors to arbitrate between parties contending for access to a medium, without concern for their ultimate destination. When devices attempt to use a medium simultaneously, frame collisions occur. Data-link protocols specify how devices detect and recover from such collisions, and may provide mechanisms to reduce or prevent them. Examples of data link protocols are Ethernet ,

315-406: Is concerned with local delivery of frames between nodes on the same level of the network. Data-link frames, as these protocol data units are called, do not cross the boundaries of a local area network. Inter-network routing and global addressing are higher-layer functions, allowing data-link protocols to focus on local delivery, addressing, and media arbitration. In this way, the data link layer

350-436: Is from 5 to 60 cm (2.0 to 23.6 in) away from a transceiver, in the center of the cone. IrDA data communications operate in half-duplex mode because while transmitting, a device's receiver is blinded by the light of its own transmitter, and thus full-duplex communication is not feasible. The two devices that communicate simulate full-duplex communication by quickly turning the link around. The primary device controls

385-452: Is keeping IrDA transceivers in production. Lacking specialized electronics, many power meter implementations utilize a bit-banged SIR phy, running at 9600 BAUD using a minimum-width pulse (i.e. 3/16 of a 115.2KBAUD pulse) to save energy. To drive the LED, a computer-controlled pin is turned on and off at the right time. Cross-talk from the LED to the receiving PIN diode is extreme, so the protocol

420-413: Is often divided into two sublayers: logical link control (LLC) and media access control (MAC). The uppermost sublayer, LLC, multiplexes protocols running at the top of the data link layer, and optionally provides flow control, acknowledgment, and error notification. The LLC provides addressing and control of the data link. It specifies which mechanisms are to be used for addressing stations over

455-519: Is the physical layer of the IrDA specifications. It comprises optical link definitions, modulation, coding, cyclic redundancy check (CRC) and the framer. Different data rates use different modulation/coding schemes: Further characteristics are: The frame size depends on the data rate mostly and varies between 64  B and 64 kB. Additionally, bigger blocks of data can be transferred by sending multiple frames consecutively. This can be adjusted with

490-434: Is the second layer of the seven-layer OSI model of computer networking . This layer is the protocol layer that transfers data between nodes on a network segment across the physical layer . The data link layer provides the functional and procedural means to transfer data between network entities and may also provide the means to detect and possibly correct errors that can occur in the physical layer. The data link layer

525-488: Is transmitting the word "HELLO", by encoding each letter as its position in the alphabet. Thus, the letter A is coded as 1, B as 2, and so on as shown in the table on the right. Adding up the resulting numbers yields 8 + 5 + 12 + 12 + 15 = 52, and 5 + 2 = 7 calculates the metadata. Finally, the "8 5 12 12 15 7" numbers sequence is transmitted, which the receiver will see on its end if there are no transmission errors. The receiver knows that

560-534: The IEEE 802.11 WiFi protocols, ATM and Frame Relay . In the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP), the data link layer functionality is contained within the link layer , the lowest layer of the descriptive model, which is assumed to be independent of physical infrastructure. The data link provides for the transfer of data frames between hosts connected to the physical link. Within the semantics of

595-459: The IrLAP layer the communicating devices are divided into a "primary device" and one or more "secondary devices". The primary device controls the secondary devices. Only if the primary device requests a secondary device to send, is it allowed to do so. The mandatory IrLMP ( Infrared Link Management Protocol ) is the third layer of the IrDA specifications. It can be broken down into two parts. First,

630-647: The LM-MUX (Link Management Multiplexer), which lies on top of the IrLAP layer. Its most important achievements are: Second, the LM-IAS (Link Management Information Access Service), which provides a list, where service providers can register their services so other devices can access these services by querying the LM-IAS. The optional Tiny TP ( Tiny Transport Protocol ) lies on top of the IrLMP layer. It provides: The optional IrCOMM ( Infrared Communications Protocol ) lets

665-632: The OSI network architecture, the protocols of the data link layer respond to service requests from the network layer , and perform their function by issuing service requests to the physical layer . That transfer can be reliable or unreliable ; many data link protocols do not have acknowledgments of successful frame reception and acceptance, and some data link protocols might not even perform any check for transmission errors. In those cases, higher-level protocols must provide flow control , error checking, acknowledgments, and retransmission. The frame header contains

700-436: The data link layer are: In addition to framing, the data link layer may also detect and recover from transmission errors. For a receiver to detect transmission errors, the sender must add redundant information as an error detection code to the frame sent. When the receiver obtains a frame it verifies whether the received error detection code matches a recomputed error detection code. An error detection code can be defined as

735-556: The data link layer is described in more detail with media access control (MAC) and logical link control (LLC) sublayers; this means that the IEEE 802.2 LLC protocol can be used with all of the IEEE 802 MAC layers, such as Ethernet, Token Ring , IEEE 802.11 , etc., as well as with some non-802 MAC layers such as FDDI . Other data-link-layer protocols, such as HDLC , are specified to include both sublayers, although some other protocols, such as Cisco HDLC , use HDLC's low-level framing as

770-401: The data link layer. In the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP), OSI's data link layer functionality is contained within its lowest layer, the link layer . The TCP/IP link layer has the operating scope of the link a host is connected to, and only concerns itself with hardware issues to the point of obtaining hardware (MAC) addresses for locating hosts on the link and transmitting data frames onto

805-470: The infrared device act like either a serial or parallel port . It lies on top of the IrLMP layer. The optional OBEX ( Object Exchange ) provides the exchange of arbitrary data objects (e.g., vCard , vCalendar or even applications) between infrared devices. It lies on top of the Tiny TP protocol, so Tiny TP is mandatory for OBEX to work. The optional IrLAN ( Infrared Local Area Network ) provides

875-472: The last number received is the error-detecting metadata and that all data before is the message, so the receiver can recalculate the above math and if the metadata matches it can be concluded that the data has been received error-free. Though, if the receiver sees something like a "7 5 12 12 15 7" sequence (first element altered by some error), it can run the check by calculating 7 + 5 + 12 + 12 + 15 = 51 and 5 + 1 = 6, and discard

910-492: The link. The link-layer functionality was described in RFC 1122 and is defined differently than the data link layer of OSI, and encompasses all methods that affect the local link. The TCP/IP model is not a top-down comprehensive design reference for networks. It was formulated for the purpose of illustrating the logical groups and scopes of functions needed in the design of the suite of internetworking protocols of TCP/IP, as needed for

945-412: The lower and upper limits of irradiance such that a signal is visible up to one meter away, but a receiver is not overwhelmed with brightness when a device comes close. In practice, there are some devices on the market that do not reach one meter, while other devices may reach up to several meters. There are also devices that do not tolerate extreme closeness. The typical sweet spot for IrDA communications

980-447: The possibility to connect an infrared device to a local area network. There are three possible methods: As IrLAN lies on top of the Tiny TP protocol, the Tiny TP protocol must be implemented for IrLAN to work. IrSimple achieves at least four to ten times faster data transmission speeds by improving the efficiency of the infrared IrDA protocol. A 500 KB normal picture from a cell phone can be transferred within one second. One of

1015-602: The primary targets of IrSimpleShot ( IrSS ) is to allow the millions of IrDA-enabled camera phones to wirelessly transfer pictures to printers, printer kiosks and flat-panel TVs. Infrared Financial Messaging ( IrFM ) is a wireless payment standard developed by the Infrared Data Association. It was thought to be logical because of the excellent privacy of IrDA, which does not pass through walls. Many modern (2021) implementations are used for semi-automated reading of power meters. This high-volume application

1050-402: The received data as defective since 6 does not equal 7. More sophisticated error detection and correction algorithms are designed to reduce the risk that multiple transmission errors in the data would cancel each other out and go undetected. An algorithm that can even detect if the correct bytes are received but out of order is the cyclic redundancy check or CRC. This algorithm is often used in

1085-426: The source and destination addresses that indicate which device originated the frame and which device is expected to receive and process it. In contrast to the hierarchical and routable addresses of the network layer, layer 2 addresses are flat, meaning that no part of the address can be used to identify the logical or physical group to which the address belongs. In some networks, such as IEEE 802 local area networks,

1120-509: The timing of the link, but both sides are bound to certain hard constraints and are encouraged to turn the link around as fast as possible. The mandatory IrLAP ( Infrared Link Access Protocol ) is the second layer of the IrDA specifications. It lies on top of the IrPHY layer and below the IrLMP layer. It represents the data link layer of the OSI model . The most important specifications are: On

1155-467: The transmission medium and for controlling the data exchanged between the originator and recipient machines. MAC may refer to the sublayer that determines who is allowed to access the media at any one time (e.g. CSMA/CD ). Other times it refers to a frame structure delivered based on MAC addresses inside. There are generally two forms of media access control: distributed and centralized. Both of these may be compared to communication between people. In

1190-491: Was made to revive IrDA around 2005 with IrSimple protocols by providing sub-1-second transfers of pictures between cell phones, printers, and display devices. IrDA hardware was still less expensive and didn't share the same security problems encountered with wireless technologies such as Bluetooth. For example, some Pentax DSLRs (K-x, K-r) incorporated IrSimple for image transfer and gaming. Official Other Data link layer The data link layer , or layer 2 ,

1225-429: Was popular on PDAs, laptops and some desktops from the late 1990s through the early 2000s. However, it has been displaced by other wireless technologies such as Bluetooth , and Wi-Fi , favored because they don't need a direct line of sight and can therefore support hardware like mice and keyboards. It is still used in some environments where interference makes radio -based wireless technologies unusable. An attempt
