IEC 61883 and AV/C CTS -based IEEE 1394 Digital Home Appliances Control

摘要

There are a lot of home network technologies. One of them is IEEE 1394 technology that supports automatic configuration, QoS guaranteed real-time A/V transmission and high bandwidth. In the near future, IEEE 1394 home network will be deployed and IEEE 1394 digital home appliances will be universally available at a reasonable price for customers. Then, one needs an integrated control technology. This kind of control technology is based on IEC 61883-1 FCP and AV/C CTS. This paper issues the IEEE 1394-based technology to control digital home appliances and the test results from its implementation show the possibility to be used in a home gateway as a simple but effective control technology.
