This paper presents a new cycle time synchronization method to transmit isochronous multimedia data by real time in IEEE 1394 over a UWB (ultra wide-band) network. The 1394 TA recommended two methods for the cycle time synchronization. The first method must use two consecutive beacon signals to calculate a drift correction, while the second one eliminates this dependency with minor algorithm changes. As experimental results, the second method achieves 21% performance improvement over the first one. The receipt of two consecutive beacons every time is hard due to the noise in a wireless channel. In addition, this paper provides the procedure of cycle time synchronization, as well as the transaction between 1394 protocol adaptation layer and IEEE 802.15.3 media access layer. The proposed synchronization technique will contribute to transfer isochronous data at IEEE 1394 over UWB audio/visual appliances such as camcorder, HDTV, etc.

This paper presented a new method to transfer isochronous data through an IEEE 1394 over UWB (ultra wideband) network. The goal of this research is to implement a complete heterogeneous system without commercial IEEE 1394 link chips supporting the bridge-aware function. The method resolving this dedicated chip-less situation, was employed a new bridge adapting a pseudo connection management protocol (CMP). This approach made a wired 1394 devices as an IEEE 1394 over UWB device. This method allowed an IEEE 1394 equipment to transfer an isochronous data using a UWB wireless communication network. The result of this approach was demonstrated successfully via an IEEE 1394 over UWB bridge module. The proposed CMP and IEEE 1394 over UWB bridge module can exchange isochronous data through an IEEE 1394 over UWB network. This method makes an IEEE 1394 equipment transfer an isochronous data using a UWB wireless channel.
