Algorithms for transmission failure detection in a communication system with two buses

Abstract

Designing systems with parallel transmission for industrial purposes, requires first defining the types of a failure, and next detecting it. Another step is to execute an appropriate procedure that can ensure the continuity of transmission. The issue of a failure detection can be a problem in itself, but is can also be a component of data transmission via dual bus. To make the transmission system work correctly, apart from creating the scenario of exchanges, it is necessary to solve the problem of a failure occurrence so that to maintain the transmission continuity. The paper presents the methods of failure detection and algorithms used when such failure occurs.
