51-514: For a given data signaling rate , i.e., bit rate , the NRZ code requires only half the baseband bandwidth required by the Manchester code (the passband bandwidth is the same). The pulses in NRZ have more energy than a return-to-zero (RZ) code, which also has an additional rest state beside the conditions for ones and zeros. When used to represent data in an asynchronous communication scheme,

102-435: A multidrop bus . The original "normal response mode" is a primary-secondary mode where the computer (or primary terminal ) gives each peripheral ( secondary terminal ) permission to speak in turn. Because all communication is either to or from the primary terminal, frames include only one address, that of the secondary terminal; the primary terminal is not assigned an address. There is a distinction between commands sent by

153-434: A polar or non-polar , where polar refers to a mapping to voltages of +V and −V, and non-polar refers to a voltage mapping of +V and 0, for the corresponding binary values of 0 and 1. "One" is represented by a DC bias on the transmission line (conventionally positive), while "zero" is represented by the absence of bias – the line at 0 volts or grounded. For this reason it is also known as "on-off keying". In clock language,

204-499: A "one" transitions to or remains at a biased level on the trailing clock edge of the previous bit, while "zero" transitions to or remains at no bias on the trailing clock edge of the previous bit. Among the disadvantages of unipolar NRZ is that it allows for long series without change, which makes synchronization difficult, although this is not unique to the unipolar case. One solution is to not send bytes without transitions. More critically, and unique to unipolar NRZ, are issues related to

255-441: A 1 bit and the other significant condition representing a 0 bit. Although return-to-zero contains a provision for synchronization, it still may have a DC component resulting in baseline wander during long strings of 0 or 1 bits, just like the line code non-return-to-zero.

306-419: A combined station, it is important to maintain the distinction between P and F bits, because there may be two checkpoint cycles operating simultaneously. A P bit arriving in a command from the remote station is not in response to our P bit; only an F bit arriving in a response is. Both I and S frames contain a receive sequence number N(R). N(R) provides a positive acknowledgement for the receipt of I-frames from

357-433: A command S frame and a response S frame; when P/F is 0, the two forms are exactly equivalent. Unnumbered frames, or U-frames , are primarily used for link management, although a few are used to transfer user data. They exchange session management and control information between connected devices, and some U-frames contain an information field, used for system management information or user data. The first 2 bits (11) mean it

408-454: A continuous connection between devices, making it versatile for various network configurations. Originally, HDLC was used in multi-device networks, where one device acted as the master and others as slaves, through modes like Normal Response Mode (NRM) and Asynchronous Response Mode (ARM). These modes are now rarely used. Currently, HDLC is primarily employed in point-to-point connections , such as between routers or network interfaces , using

459-492: A duplicated bit being inserted in the decoded data stream, or the decoder’s bit clock is 1 bit later than the encoder resulting in a duplicated bit being removed from the decoded data stream. Both are referred to as “bit slip” denoting that the phase of the bit clock has slipped a bit period. Forcing transitions at intervals shorter than the bit clock difference period allows an asynchronous receiver to be used for NRZI bit streams. Additional transitions necessarily consume some of

510-523: A flag. When no frames are being transmitted on a simplex or full-duplex synchronous link, a frame delimiter is continuously transmitted on the link. This generates one of two continuous waveforms, depending on the initial state: [REDACTED] The HDLC specification allows the 0-bit at the end of a frame delimiter to be shared with the start of the next frame delimiter, i.e. "011111101111110". Some hardware does not support this. For half-duplex or multi-drop communication, where several transmitters share

561-468: A leading "10" indicating that it is an S-frame. This is followed by a 2-bit type, a poll/final bit, and a 3-bit sequence number. (Or a 4-bit padding field followed by a 7-bit sequence number.) The first (least significant) 2 bits mean it is an S-frame. All S frames include a P/F bit and a receive sequence number as described above. Except for the interpretation of the P/F field, there is no difference between

612-415: A line, a receiver on the line will see continuous idling 1-bits in the inter-frame period when no transmitter is active. HDLC transmits bytes of data with the least significant bit first (not to be confused with little-endian order, which refers to byte ordering within a multi-byte field). When using asynchronous serial communication such as standard RS-232 serial ports , synchronous-style bit stuffing

663-575: A mode called Asynchronous Balanced Mode (ABM). HDLC is based on IBM 's SDLC protocol, which is the layer 2 protocol for IBM's Systems Network Architecture (SNA). It was extended and standardized by the ITU as LAP (Link Access Procedure), while ANSI named their essentially identical version ADCCP . The HDLC specification does not specify the full semantics of the frame fields. This allows other fully compliant standards to be derived from it, and derivatives have since appeared in innumerable standards. It

714-517: A positive acknowledge packet, the sender can retransmit the failed frame. The FCS was implemented because many early communication links had a relatively high bit error rate , and the FCS could readily be computed by simple, fast circuitry or software. More effective forward error correction schemes are now widely used by other protocols. Synchronous Data Link Control ( SDLC ) was originally designed to connect one computer with multiple peripherals via

765-417: A positive voltage), while "zero" is represented by another level (usually a negative voltage). In clock language, in bipolar NRZ-level the voltage "swings" from positive to negative on the trailing edge of the previous bit clock cycle. An example of this is RS-232 , where "one" is −12 V to −5 V and "zero" is +5 V to +12 V. "One" is represented by no change in physical level, while "zero"

816-465: A time. It also allows operation over half-duplex communication links, as long as the primary is aware that it may not transmit when it has permitted a secondary to do so. Asynchronous response mode is an HDLC addition for use over full-duplex links. While retaining the primary/secondary distinction, it allows the secondary to transmit at any time. Thus, there must be some other mechanism to ensure that multiple secondaries do not try to transmit at

867-493: A transition varies in practice, NRZI applies equally to both. Magnetic storage generally uses the NRZ-M, non-return-to-zero mark convention: a logical 1 is encoded as a transition, and a logical 0 is encoded as no transition. The HDLC and Universal Serial Bus protocols use the opposite NRZ-S, non-return-to-zero space convention: a logical 0 is a transition, and a logical 1 is no transition. Neither NRZI encoding guarantees that

918-501: Is a 16-bit CRC-CCITT or a 32-bit CRC-32 computed over the Address, Control, and Information fields. It provides a means by which the receiver can detect errors that may have been induced during the transmission of the frame, such as lost bits, flipped bits, and extraneous bits. However, given that the algorithms used to calculate the FCS are such that the probability of certain types of transmission errors going undetected increases with

969-461: Is being done, and after seeing five 1-bits in a row, a following 0-bit is stripped out of the received data. If instead the sixth bit is 1, this is either a flag (if the seventh bit is 0), or an error (if the seventh bit is 1). In the latter case, the frame receive procedure is aborted, to be restarted when a flag is next seen. This bit-stuffing serves a second purpose, that of ensuring a sufficient number of signal transitions. On synchronous links,

1020-438: Is extended to 9 bits by a 1 in order to insert a transition for synchronisation. Return-to-zero describes a line code used in telecommunications in which the signal drops (returns) to zero between each pulse . This takes place even if a number of consecutive 0s or 1s occur in the signal. The signal is self-clocking . This means that a separate clock does not need to be sent alongside the signal, but suffers from using twice

1071-431: Is inappropriate for several reasons: Instead asynchronous framing uses "control-octet transparency", also called " byte stuffing " or "octet stuffing". The frame boundary octet is 01111110, (0x7E in hexadecimal notation). A "control escape octet ", has the value 0x7D (bit sequence '10111110', as RS-232 transmits least-significant bit first). If either of these two octets appears in the transmitted data, an escape octet

1122-452: Is represented by a change in physical level. In clock language, the level transitions on the trailing clock edge of the previous bit to represent a "zero". This "change-on-zero" is used by High-Level Data Link Control and USB . They both avoid long periods of no transitions (even when the data contains long sequences of 1 bits) by using zero-bit insertion . HDLC transmitters insert a 0 bit after 5 contiguous 1 bits (except when transmitting

1173-438: Is sent, followed by the original data octet with bit 5 inverted. For example, the byte 0x7E would be transmitted as 0x7D 0x5E ("10111110 01111010"). Other reserved octet values (such as XON or XOFF ) can be escaped in the same way if necessary. The "abort sequence" 0x7D 0x7E ends a packet with an incomplete byte-stuff sequence, forcing the receiver to detect an error. This can be used to abort packet transmission with no chance

1224-638: Is the single-channel signaling rate in bits per second, T is the minimum time interval in seconds for which each level must be maintained, and n is the number of significant conditions of modulation of the channel. In the case where an individual end-to-end telecommunications service is provided by parallel channels, the parallel-channel signaling rate is given by P C S R = ∑ i = 1 m log 2 ⁡ n i T i {\displaystyle PCSR=\sum _{i=1}^{m}{\frac {\log _{2}{n_{i}}}{T_{i}}}} , where PCSR

1275-428: Is the total signaling rate for m channels, m is the number of parallel channels, T i is the minimum interval between significant instants for the I -th channel, and n i is the number of significant conditions of modulation for the I -th channel. In the case where an end-to-end telecommunications service is provided by tandem channels, the end-to-end signaling rate is the lowest signaling rate among

1326-584: The P/F bit set), and the address field of a received frame must be examined to determine whether it contains a command (the address received is ours) or a response (the address received is that of the other terminal). This means that the address field is not optional, even on point-to-point links where it is not needed to disambiguate the peer being talked to. Some HDLC variants extend the address field to include both source and destination addresses, or an explicit command/response bit. Three fundamental types of HDLC frames may be distinguished: The general format of

1377-473: The absence of a neutral state requires other mechanisms for bit synchronization when a separate clock signal is not available. Since NRZ is not inherently a self-clocking signal , some additional synchronization technique must be used for avoiding bit slips ; examples of such techniques are a run-length-limited constraint and a parallel synchronization signal. NRZ can refer to any of the following serializer line codes: The NRZ code also can be classified as

1428-407: The bandwidth to achieve the same data-rate as compared to non-return-to-zero format. The zero between each bit is a neutral or rest condition, such as a zero amplitude in pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM), zero phase shift in phase-shift keying (PSK), or mid- frequency in frequency-shift keying (FSK). That zero condition is typically halfway between the significant condition representing

1479-441: The beginning or end of a frame, so the beginning and end of each frame has to be identified. This is done by using a unique sequence of bits as a frame delimiter, or flag , and encoding the data to ensure that the flag sequence is never seen inside a frame. Each frame begins and ends with a frame delimiter. A frame delimiter at the end of a frame may also mark the start of the next frame. On both synchronous and asynchronous links,

1530-518: The component channels. HDLC High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) is a communication protocol used for transmitting data between devices in telecommunication and networking . Developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), it is defined in the standard ISO/IEC 13239:2002. HDLC ensures reliable data transfer, allowing one device to understand data sent by another. It can operate with or without

1581-410: The control field is: There are also extended (two-byte) forms of I and S frames. Again, the least significant bit (rightmost in this table) is sent first. Poll/Final is a single bit with two names. It is called Poll when part of a command (set by the primary station to obtain a response from a secondary station), and Final when part of a response (set by the secondary station to indicate a response or

1632-401: The data channel’s rate capacity. Consuming no more of the channel capacity than necessary to maintain bit clock synchronization without increasing costs related to complexity is a problem with many possible solutions. Run-length limited (RLL) encodings have been used for magnetic disk and tape storage devices using fixed-rate RLL codes that increase the channel data rate by a known fraction of

1683-478: The data is NRZI encoded, so that a 0-bit is transmitted as a change in the signal on the line, and a 1-bit is sent as no change. Thus, each 0 bit provides an opportunity for a receiving modem to synchronize its clock via a phase-locked loop . If there are too many 1-bits in a row, the receiver can lose count. Bit-stuffing provides a minimum of one transition per six bit times during transmission of data, and one transition per seven bit times during transmission of

1734-415: The encoded bitstream has transitions. An asynchronous receiver uses an independent bit clock that is phase synchronized by detecting bit transitions. When an asynchronous receiver decodes a block of bits without a transition longer than the period of the difference between the frequency of the transmitting and receiving bit clocks, the decoder’s bit clock is either 1 bit earlier than the encoder resulting in

1785-429: The end of transmission). In all other cases, the bit is clear. The bit is used as a token that is passed back and forth between the stations. Only one token should exist at a time. The secondary only sends a Final when it has received a Poll from the primary. The primary only sends a Poll when it has received a Final back from the secondary, or after a timeout indicating that the bit has been lost. When operating as

1836-435: The flag sequence is binary "01111110", or hexadecimal 0x7E, but the details are quite different. Because a flag sequence consists of six consecutive 1-bits, other data is coded to ensure that it never contains more than five 1-bits in a row. This is done by bit stuffing : any time that five consecutive 1-bits appear in the transmitted data, the data is paused and a 0-bit is transmitted. The receiving device knows that this

1887-409: The frame delimiter "01111110"). USB transmitters insert a 0 bit after 6 consecutive 1 bits. The receiver at the far end uses every transition — both from 0 bits in the data and these extra non-data 0 bits — to maintain clock synchronization. The receiver otherwise ignores these non-data 0 bits. Non-return-to-zero, inverted ( NRZI , also known as non-return to zero IBM , inhibit code , or IBM code )

1938-602: The framing mechanism used with the PPP on synchronous lines, as used by many servers to connect to a WAN , most commonly the Internet . A similar version is used as the control channel for E-carrier (E1) and SONET multichannel telephone lines. Cisco HDLC uses low-level HDLC framing techniques but adds a protocol field to the standard HDLC header. HDLC frames can be transmitted over synchronous or asynchronous serial communication links. Those links have no mechanism to mark

1989-443: The information data rate. HDLC and USB use bit stuffing : inserting an additional 0 bit before NRZ-S encoding to force a transition in the encoded data sequence after 5 (HLDC) or 6 (USB) consecutive 1 bits. Bit stuffing consumes channel capacity only when necessary but results in a variable information data rate. Synchronized NRZI ( SNRZI ) and group-coded recording ( GCR ) are modified forms of NRZI. In SNRZI-M each 8-bit group

2040-570: The interpretation of the P/F field, there is no difference between a command I frame and a response I frame; when P/F is 0, the two forms are exactly equivalent. Supervisory Frames, or 'S-frames', are used for flow and error control whenever piggybacking is impossible or inappropriate, such as when a station does not have data to send. S-frames in HDLC do not have information fields, although some HDLC-derived protocols use information fields for "multi-selective reject". The S-frame control field includes

2091-405: The length of the data being checked for errors, the FCS can implicitly limit the practical size of the frame. If the receiver's calculation of the FCS does not match that of the sender's, indicating that the frame contains errors, the receiver can either send a negative acknowledge packet to the sender, or send nothing. After either receiving a negative acknowledge packet or timing out waiting for

2142-532: The maximum rate, in bits per second , at which binary information can be transferred in a given direction between users over the communications system facilities dedicated to a particular information transfer transaction, under conditions of continuous transmission and no overhead information . For a single channel, the signaling rate is given by S C S R = log 2 ⁡ n T {\displaystyle SCSR={\frac {\log _{2}{n}}{T}}} , where SCSR

2193-440: The number of bits in the sequence number, up to 7 or 127 I-frames may be awaiting acknowledgment at any time. Information frames, or I-frames , transport user data from the network layer. In addition they also include flow and error control information piggybacked on data. The sub-fields in the control field define these functions. The least significant bit (first transmitted) defines the frame type. 0 means an I-frame. Except for

2244-400: The original on 2022-01-22.  (in support of MIL-STD-188 ). Data signaling rate In telecommunications , data signaling rate ( DSR ), also known as gross bit rate , is the aggregate rate at which data passes a point in the transmission path of a data transmission system . The maximum user signaling rate , synonymous to gross bit rate or data signaling rate, is

2295-513: The other side of the link. Its value is always the first frame not yet received; it acknowledges that all frames with N(S) values up to N(R)−1 (modulo 8 or modulo 128) have been received and indicates the N(S) of the next frame it expects to receive. N(R) operates the same way whether it is part of a command or response. A combined station only has one sequence number space. This is incremented for successive I-frames, modulo 8 or modulo 128. Depending on

2346-444: The partial packet will be interpreted as valid by the receiver. The contents of an HDLC frame are shown in the following table: Note that the end flag of one frame may be (but does not have to be) the beginning (start) flag of the next frame. Data is usually sent in multiples of 8 bits, but only some variants require this; others theoretically permit data alignments on other than 8-bit boundaries. The frame check sequence (FCS)

2397-405: The presence of a transmitted DC level – the power spectrum of the transmitted signal does not approach zero at zero frequency. This leads to two significant problems: first, the transmitted DC power leads to higher power losses than other encodings, and second, the presence of a DC signal component requires that the transmission line be DC-coupled. "One" is represented by one physical level (usually

2448-416: The primary to a secondary, and responses sent by a secondary to the primary, but this is not reflected in the encoding; commands and responses are indistinguishable except for the difference in the direction in which they are transmitted. Normal response mode allows the secondary-to-primary link to be shared without contention , because it has the primary give the secondaries permission to transmit one at

2499-406: The same time (or only one secondary). Asynchronous balanced mode adds the concept of a combined terminal which can act as both a primary and a secondary. Unfortunately, this mode of operation has some implementation subtleties. While the most common frames sent do not care whether they are in a command or response frame, some essential ones do (notably most unnumbered frames, and any frame with

2550-567: Was adopted into the X.25 protocol stack as LAPB , into the V.42 protocol as LAPM , into the Frame Relay protocol stack as LAPF and into the ISDN protocol stack as LAPD. The original ISO standards for HDLC are the following: ISO/IEC 13239:2002, the current standard, replaced all of these specifications. HDLC was the inspiration for the IEEE 802.2 LLC protocol, and it is the basis for

2601-437: Was devised by Bryon E. Phelps ( IBM ) in 1956. It is a method of mapping a binary signal to a physical signal for transmission over some transmission medium. The two-level NRZI signal distinguishes data bits by the presence or absence of a transition at a clock boundary. The NRZI encoded signal can be decoded unambiguously after passing through a data path that doesn’t preserve polarity. Which bit value corresponds to
