Abstract
A loop transmission system includes a plurality of micronodes and a central processor operative as a supervisory station linked by two loop transmission lines each capable of transmitting in either direction around the loop. The central processor is adapted to transmit, in alternative cycles in a first then in a second direction about the loop. Each micronode is adapted to respond in a direction opposite to the direction of the command transmission. The system is operative to provide alternative transmission paths in opposite directions around the loop such that if a fault occurs, the system retransmits the prior command in the opposite direction during a next cycle of operation. At most, a one cycle delay occurs, yet the system is inexpensive and easy to install.
