Abstract

The present invention provides a steering communication system being able to individually obtain a telemetry data from a steered-object communication devices mounted on the steered-object. An arbitrary identification number assigned to a plurality of steered-object communication devices mounted on a steered-object at the time of pairing-setup is associated with the equipment ID of a pairing object. When performing transmission request of a telemetry data, a steering signal adding the transmission request information and the own identification number is transmitted. The steered-object communication device judges signal classification of the inputted control signal. When the steering signal adding transmission request information and the own identification number is inputted, the steered-object communication device transmits a telemetry data signal adding the telemetry data as an answer signal to a steering communication device.

Claims

1. A steering communication device steering a steered-object in communication with a plurality of steered-object communication devices mounted on the steered-object, the steering communication device comprising:

a steering-side control unit configured to control to transmit a pairing-setup signal adding an arbitrary identification number assigned to each steered-object communication device mounted on the steered-object to the steered-object communication device of a pairing object, and to transmit a steering signal adding the identification number and transmission request information for performing transmission request of a telemetry data obtained by the steered-object to the steered-object communication device at a transmission timing based on a predetermined transmission timing information.

2. A plurality of steered-object communication devices mounted on a steered-object and communicating with a steering communication device for steering the steered-object, the steered-object communication device comprising:

a steered-object side control unit;

wherein when a pairing-setup signal for performing pairing-setup is inputted from the steering communication device, the steered-object side control unit controls to transmit a pairing-setup answer signal adding the own equipment ID and the pairing-setup signal to steering communication device, and

wherein when a steering signal, to which the own identification number assigned from the paired steering communication device and transmission request information for performing transmission request of a telemetry data obtained by the steered-object are added, is inputted, the steered-object side control unit controls to transmit a telemetry data signal adding the telemetry data to the steering communication device.

3. A steering communication system steering a steered-object by communicating between a steering communication device operating a steered-object and a plurality of steered-object communication devices mounted on the steered-object, the steering communication system comprising:

a steering-side control unit arranged in the steering communication device; and

a steered-object side control unit arranged in the steered-object communication device,

wherein the steering-side control unit controls to transmit a pairing-setup signal adding an arbitrary identification number assigned to each steered-object communication device mounted on the steered-object to the steered-object communication device of a pairing object, and to transmit a steering signal adding the identification number and transmission request information for performing transmission request of a telemetry data obtained by the steered-object to the steered-object communication device at a transmission timing based on a predetermined transmission timing information,

wherein when a pairing-setup signal for performing pairing-setup is inputted from the steering communication device, the steered-object side control unit controls to transmit a pairing-setup answer signal adding the own equipment ID and the pairing-setup signal to steering communication device, and when a steering signal, to which the own identification number assigned from the paired steering communication device and transmission request information for performing transmission request of a telemetry data obtained by the steered-object are added, is inputted, the steered-object side control unit controls to transmit a telemetry data signal adding the telemetry data to the steering communication device.
