IrLAP

The IrLAP protocol provides:

• Management of communication processes on the

link between devices

• A device-to-device connection for the reliable,

ordered transfer of data

• Device discover procedures

• Hidden node handling. 115.2 kbaud

Figure B-3 identifies the key parts and hierarchy of the

IrDA protocols. The bottom layer is the Physical layer,

IrPHY. This is the part that converts the serial data to

and from pulses of IR light. IR transceivers can’t trans-

mit and receive at the same time. The receiver has to

wait for the transmitter to finish sending. This is some-

times referred to as a “Half-Duplex” connection. The IR

Link Access Protocol (IrLAP) provides the structure for

packets (or “frames”) of data to emulate data that would

normally be free to stream back and forth.

LAYERS

Figure B-4 shows how the IrLAP frame is organized.

The frame is preceded by some number of Beginning

of Frame characters (BOFs). The value of the BOF is

generally 0xC0, but 0xFF may be used if the last BOF

character is a 0xC0. The purpose of multiple BOFs is to

give the other station some warning that a frame is

coming.

The IrLAP frame begins with an address byte (“A”

field), then a control byte (“C” field). The control byte is

used to differentiate between different types of frames

and is also used to count frames. Frames can carry sta-

tus, data or commands. The IrLAP protocol has a com-

mand syntax of it’s own. These commands are part of

the control byte. Lastly, IrLAP frames carry data. This

data is the information (or “I”) field. The integrity of the

frame is ensured with a 16-bit CRC, referred to as the

Frame Check Sequence (FCS). The 16-bit CRC value

is transmitted LSB first. The end of the frame is marked

with an EOF character, which is always a 0xC1. The

frame structure described here is used for all versions

of IrDA protocols used for serial wire replacement for

speeds up to 115.2 kbaud.

IrLAP FRAME

In addition to defining the frame structure, IrLAP pro-

vides the “housekeeping” functions of opening, closing

and maintaining connections. The critical parameters

that determine the performance of the link are part of

this function. These parameters control how many

BOFs are used, identify the speed of the link, how fast

either party may change from receiving to transmitting,

etc. IrLAP has the responsibility of negotiating these

parameters to the highest common set so that both

sides can communicate as quickly and reliably as

possible.

supports

communication baud rate of 9600 baud.

2: Another IrDA standard that is entering

into general usage is IR Object Exchange

(IrOBEX). This standard is not used for

serial connection emulation.

3: IrDA communication standards faster

than 115.2 kbaud use a different CRC

method and physical layer.
