Abstract
A status reporting arrangement for a digital transmission system (10) has a plurality of stations (11, 12, 13) in a tandem configuration. Each station (such as 11) includes a reporting circuit (30) arranged for receiving (36) a train of messages (91, 96), each message originating from a different preceding station (such as 13 and 12) in the tandem configuration, followed by a received caboose signal (97). Each reporting circuit responds in turn to the train of messages and the received caboose signal by retransmitting (60) the train of messages (91, 96) but deletes the received caboose signal (97). The reporting circuit, in response to detection of the received caboose signal, appends to the retransmitted train of messages a message (100) from the local station and a new caboose signal (102).
