Abstract

A method of controlling at least one message including at east one command and response, the method includes transmitting a reset command to reset a receiver, wherein a parameter of the receiver is reset to a default value based on the reset command; transmitting a set command including parameter information to the receiver for setting a parameter of the receiver with a target value; and receiving a set command response including first status information in response to the set command, wherein the first status information indicates whether a parameter requested by the set command is set to a target value or not, and wherein if the parameter requested by the set command is set to a target value, the first status information indicates a field of STATUS_OK and if the parameter requested by the set command is not set to a target value, the first status information indicates a field of STATUS_INVALID_PARAM.

Claims

1. A method of controlling at least one message including at least one command and response, the method comprising:

transmitting a reset command to reset a receiver,

wherein a parameter of the receiver is reset to a default value based on the reset command;

transmitting a set command including parameter information to the receiver for setting a parameter of the receiver with a target value; and

receiving a set command response including first status information in response to the set command,

wherein the first status information indicates whether a parameter requested by the set command is set to a target value or not, and

wherein if the parameter requested by the set command is set to a target value, the first status information indicates a field of STATUS_OK. and if the parameter requested by the set command is not set to a target value, the first status information indicates a field of STATUS_IN VALID_PARAM.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving a reset command response corresponding to the reset command,

wherein the reset command response informs that the receiver has been reset.

3. The method of claim 2,

wherein the reset command response includes second status information, the second status information indicating whether the parameter of the receiver is reset or not.

4. The method of claim 2, further comprising:

initializing the receiver after the reset.

5. An apparatus for controlling at least one message including at least one command and response corresponding to the at least one command, the apparatus comprising:

a processor configured to

transmit a reset command to reset a receiver,

transmit a set command including parameter information to the receiver for setting a parameter of the receiver with a target value, and

receive a set command response including first status information in response to the set command,

wherein a parameter of the receiver is reset to a default value based on the reset command,

wherein the first status information indicates whether a parameter requested by the set command is set to a target value or not, and

wherein if the parameter requested by the set command is set to a target value, the first status information indicates a field of STATUS_OK and if the parameter requested by the set command is not set to a target value, the first status information indicates a field of STATUS_INVALID_PARAM.

6. The apparatus of claim 5,

wherein the processor further comprises receiving a reset command response corresponding to the reset command, and

wherein the reset command response informs that the receiver has been reset.

7. The apparatus of claim 6,

wherein the reset command response includes second status information, the second status information indicating whether the parameter of the receiver is reset or not.

8. The apparatus of claim 6,

wherein the processor further comprises initializing the receiver after the reset.
