Abstract
N34-45534M/KPO/87 ABSTRACT A radio bus system formed by combining a spread spectrum (SS) communication radio bus system with an electrical power line bus system using a spread spectrum modulated signal of the same signal format as that used in the radio bus system. An information signal transmission system is formed which transmits an information signal between a controller and a device which may or may not be connected to the electrical power line bus system, the information signal to be transmitted being converted into a spread spectrum modulated signal by an SS modem on a transmitter side and being succeedingly converted into a radio signal in a radio transmitter part of the transceiver section on the transmitter side for radiating the radio signal. The received radio signal is then converted on the receiver side into a spread spectrum modulated signal in a radio receiver part of the transceiver section and converted into the information signal by the SS modem on the receiver side for transmission through the electrical power line.

" 13052Z9 1 However, since the original object of a house's electrical line is to supply commercial electric power, there is no consideration in such systems for high-frequency transmission characteristics. Further, since various kinds of electric power appliances are connected to these lines, the characteristics of the lines vary according to the load, which may cause poor transmission. Also, noises produced from those appliances which are connected to the lines adversely affect signal transmission. Moreover, if the energy of a signal is increased in an effort to overcome noise, the increase of signal energy may adversely influence the various kinds of appliances lS which may be connected to the lines.
A bus system for an SS communication system of the prior art is generally shown in FIGURE 1. A
controller 5 and devices 6 and 7 and the like which communicate over the SS communication system are connected to an electrical line 1 through AC outlets 2(1), 2(2), 2(3) and so forth. The allocation of the controller and devices is arbitrary. For example, the number of controllers may be more than one. Also, the controller need not always be provided separately from the devices; it may be directly connected to the device. The communication equipment (inclusive of the controller and the devices) thus configured can transmit signals to and from one another through coupler circuits 3(1), ; 30 3(2), 3(3) and the like, and spread spectrum modems (hereinafter abbreviated as "SS modems") 4(1), 4(2), 4(3) and the like can be used in the SS

1;~05229 1 This bus system of the prior art is useful as a transmission system between different pieces of communication equipment connected to tne electrical line. However, due to the nature of the system, it is necessary that each piece of equipment be fixed to the electrical line. Accordingly, such a transmission system is inconvenient. If such equipment could be remotely controlled by a portable apparatus apart from the electrical line, or, in other words, if a radio bus system could be formed, the transmission system would be much more useful.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, the present invention is designed to control e~uipment remotely and comprises a portable apparatus which is one constituent member of a radio bus system. The apparatus of the present invention is used as a subcontroller connected to the SS communication line bus system through a radio transmission line so that the aforementioned equipment in the electrical line bus system may be directly or indirectly controlled through the electrical line bus system controller as instructed by the subcontroller. Thus, the present invention provides an enlarged radio bus system formed by combining an SS communication radio bus system with an electrical line bus system which uses a spread spectrum modulated signal of the same signal format as that used in the radio bus system.

The system so configured makes up an information signal transmission system such that an information sign,al to be transmitted between the controller and a device connected to the electrical line is converted into a spread spectrum modulated signal by the SS modem and succeedingly converted into a radio signal in a radio transmitter part of the transceiver section. The received radio signal is then converted into the spread spectrum modulated signal in a radio receiver part of the transceiver section and succeedingly converted into the information signal by the SS

A radio bus system in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention may be combined with a spred spectrum electrical line bus system having the same format for the spread qpectrum ~odulated signal as that of the radio bus system. That is, in the radio bus system, at least one of the devices having a transceiver section for communicating with the controller by radio may be : 25 formed as a transmission-reception adapter having a radlo transceiver section and a coupler circuit coupled to the electrical line bus, the spread spectrum signal received by the radio receiver part of the radio transceiver section being transmitted onto the electrical line bus through the coupler circuit on, the one hand, and the spread spectrum signal received from the electrical line , bus through the coupler circuit being converted into ', a radio signal in a radio transmitter part of the ' ' ,'~ ` .

In addition, in the radio bus system in accordance with the present invention, the controller can be portable for controlling other equipment from an arbitrary place. Also, in the SS
communication system, synchronization and signal modulation/demodulation are performed according to a common synchronization PN series and an individually allocated PN series so that the equipment in the radio bus system can be easily controlled selectively. Thus, even if the system is set up at a place with bad transmission conditions or at a place where the equipment is often hampered by external noises, sufficiently reliable signal transmission can be achieved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OP THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Referring to FIGURE 2, there is shown a , ~, . . , ' '~''''''''' : ' ' .
13052~:9 1 radio bus system in accordance with the present invention comprising a controller (hereinafter called "radio bus controller") and a plurality of controlled devices each having a radio transceiver section. The radio controller 11 is constituted by a controller section 111, a conventional SS modem 112 and a conventional radio transceiver section 113. The information signal of the controller section 111 and the carrier of the radio transceiver section 113 are respectively spectrum-scattered and modulated by the SS modem 112 so that the radio controller 11 can radiate them together as an electric wave.
The apparatus of FIGURE 2 also includes a plurality of controlled devices 12, 13 and 14 including the respective radio transceiver sections 123, 133 and 143 which communicate with the radio controller 11 by a radio wave which may be in the visible or electromagnetic spectrum. The demodulation signals received by the respective radio transceiver sections 123, 133 and 143 are in the form of spread spectrum modulated signals.
Thus, the received signal must be reverse-spectrum-scattered by the respective SS modems 122, 132 and 142 so that the devices 121, 131 and 141 can receive the information signal of the controller section 111 outputted by the radio controller 11.
In addition, other necessary information, such as that for reporting abnormal conditions of the devices, can be transmitted from each of the devices 121, 131 and 141 to the controller section 111 of the controller 11 by transmitting a signal from the radio transceiver section of each device.
`. 7 1 Thus, the control signal trans~ission may be bidirectional.
The spread spectrum modulation in the radio controller 11 and in the controlled devices 12, 13 and 14 is carried out with a PN series for synchronization provided commonly to the equipment to be integrated into the system, and other PN
series are individually allocated to that equipment. Accordingly, the radio controller 11 can select the desired plurality of controlled devices 12, 13, 14 or may select further controlled devices so as to control the devices 121, 131, 141, etc. by an information signal. Generally, the respective devices 121, 131, 141, etc. are of a stationary type using an AC source. For example, the devices 121, 131, 141, etc. may be respectively connected to AC
outlets 2(12), 2(13), 2(141, etc. of the electrical line 1 as shown in FIGURE 2 ~o that each of the devices is provided with an electric source.
However, if desired, the radio controller 11 may be a low power consumption, small-scale and portable controller.
Next, an enlarged radio bus system formed by combining the radio bus system with a spread spectrum electrical line bus system will be described with reference to FIGURE 3. Referring to FIGURE 3, there is shown a second embodiment of the present invention including a portion showing the connection between the radio bus system and the electrical line bus system. An SS communication controller S and device 6 are connected to an electrical line 1 through AC outlets 2(1), 2~2) and so forth so that an electrical line bus system may be established.

30522g 1 In this embodiment, a transmission-reception adapter 10 is further connected to the electrical line 1 through an AC outlet 2(n). The trans~ission-reception adapter 10 includes a radio S transceiver section 101 and a coupler circuit 102.
The radio transceiver section 101 exchanges data with the electrical line bus system through the coupler circuit 102. In addition, the radio transceiver section 101 communicates with the radio transceiver section 113 of the radio controller 11. The radio controller 11 is constructed in the same manner as described above with reference to FIGURE 2 and enables bidirectional transmission between the radio controller 11 and the transmission-reception adapter 10. Radio controller 11, controller 5 and device 6 of the electrical line bus system may thus colNnunicate bidirectionally.
In the FIGURE 3 embodiment, the SS modem 112 in the radio controller 11 is of the same type as the SS modems 4(1), 4(2) and so forth contained in the electrical line bus system. Accordingly, the radio transmission line and the controller section 111 of FIGURE 3 are entirely incorporated into the electrical line bus system. The SS modem 112 is synchronized with the electrical line bus system using the common synchronization PN series, and SS
modem 112 performs the modulating/demodulating operation using the individually allocated PN series as part o~ the whole system. Thus, the signal from the radio controller 11 can be recognized by the selected device 6 or the controller 5 in the electrical line bus system. The same rule is applied to transmission in the reverse direction.
Accordingly, the radio controller 11 not only can .,, . . : , . . .
-~ ,~ 13052;~
g 1 directly control the device 6 in the electrical line bus system, but radio controller 11 can indirectly control the devices which communicate over the electrical line bus system by controlling the controller 5. In addition, the radio controller 11 can receive the signal from respective devices and - the controller S if bidirectional communication is desirable.
By combining an electric line bus system and a radio bus system as shown in PIGURES 2 and 3, the radio controller can arbitrarily control, through a radio transmission line, the devices independent of and belonging to the electrical line bus system. Accordingly, an optimum integrated system can be formed.
The radio controller 11 may also be portable so as to be c~rried freely for controlling the devices remotely from an arbitrary place. Also, when an electric wave is employed as a transmission means in the radio transceiver section, such controllinq can be made by a weak electric wave.
However, when a light wave is employed, such controlling is limited by the range and incident angle o light; however, the range and incident angle can be arbitrarily changed within the limit.
Although only a couple of exemplary embodiments of this invention have been described in detail above, those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that several modifications are possible in the preferred embodiments without materially departing from the novel teachings and advantages of this invention. Accordingly, all such modifications are intended to be included in this invention as defined by the following claims.
Therefore, a system for transmitting a control signal through existing electrical power lines as a home bus has been proposed in the prior art. For use in such a system, a spread spectrum (SS) communication method has already been proposed in the applicant's U.S. patent number 4,641,322 which issued Februàry 3, 1987.
