Abstract

See full text

A deterministic network protocol for connecting critical sensors, actuators and computing elements on a bi-directional, time-multiplexed, fiber optic or other media data bus, such that critical messages have concisely bounded latency and non-critical messages may be sent without impacting critical messages. It is a unique combination of a time-slot allocation protocol and a contention-based protocol in which global synchronization information is passed on the data media via a synchronization beacon.
