Patent ID: 8289986

Claim:
A self-organizing resource access method for transmitting data by self-organizing resource access by each individual node in a Local Area Network (LAN) communication environment where at least two nodes exchange data with each other, the method comprising the steps of: listening to, by a first node, at least one data transmission of at least one other node connected to the LAN; and adjusting, by the first node, a data transmission start time of the first node in accordance with a data transmission start time of the at least one other node so that the data transmission start time of the first node does not overlap the data transmission start time of the at least one other node; wherein the first node transmits data to the at least one other node at the adjusted data transmission start time, wherein the data transmission start time of the first node is adjusted by the first node using first and second phase controllers provided within the first node, and wherein the first phase controller controls the data transmission start time of the first node to transmit the data at the controlled data transmission start time, and the second phase controller controls a phase that continuously increases at a predetermined rate until data transmission of the first node occurs.
