摘要：A method and a system is disclosed for providing access in a centralized mannerto a communications medium that is suitable for allowing use of a plurality of HomePhoneline Network Association (HPNA) v2 frames. A plurality of messages are

transmitted between a first enhanced station and a second enhanced station. Eachtransmitted message is transmitted in an enhanced frame that has timing to allow anInter-Frame Gap (IFG). A blocking signal, such as a sine wave signal and a cosine wavesignal, is transmitted during at least one IFG between enhanced frames to mask thepresence of the IFG to a non-enhanced STA. Alternatively, the blocking signal can betransmitted during at least one reply message. Contention-free access to the

communications medium is also provided by transmitting messages in a highest prioritylevel available in an HPNA v2 frame.
