DATA TRANSMISSION ARRANGEMENT AND COMMUNICATION NETWORK WITH PREVENTIVE PROVISION FOR ERROR ELIMINATION

摘要

In a data transmission device having at least one transmitting station and at least one receiving station the same message is transmitted with an integer number of copies. This number may vary from one message to another. The number is predetermined by the transmitting station as a function of the reliability of the network and the functional importance of the message; thus, the same sequencing of the general events is presented to all stations without any acknowledge process being required.
