Description / Abstract:
A fault tolerant, real time high speed data communication
standard is defined based on a ring topology and the use of a Token
passing access method with distributed control. The requirements
for the HSRB standard have been driven predominantly, but not
exclusively, by military applications. Particular attention has
been given to the need for low message latency, deterministic
message priority and comprehensive reconfiguration capabilities.
This document contains a definition of the semantics and protocol
including delimiters, tokens, message priority, addressing, error
detection and recovery schemes; and is written to be independent of
bit rate and media. Parameters related to particular media and bit
rates are defined in separate documents, the AS4075 slash
sheets.
