Abstract
There is provided a master station for transmitting data bursts at predetermined periods of time. A slave station receives the master station data bursts and transmits a replying data burst upon the receipt of each master station data burst. The transmissions of the data bursts from the master and slave stations are interleaved so that there may be data bursts transmitted by both stations on the channel at the same times. The data bursts are interleaved so that the master station receives the slave station's data bursts between transmissions of data bursts by the master station.
