ABSTRACT:
A protocol conversion system for use with a circuit for realizing a protocol in a CSMA/CD system for converting the protocol in the CSMA/CD system into a protocol in a CSMA/CA system. The protocol conversion system includes first counter for performing counting for a first period from a timing of termination of a carrier sense signal indicative of input of a reception signal of a data, a random number generator for generating a random number, a second counter for performing counting for a period corresponding to a value of the random number generated by the random number generator after termination of counting by the first counter, a reset circuit for forcedly stopping the first and second counters at a timing of beginning of the carrier sense signal, and dummy signal generator for generating a pseudo receive data while the second counter is active for counting.
