Abstract
A transmission method for ATM cells presented by local stations to a central station, and for ATM cells presented by the central station to the local stations, wherein a cell destined for the central station is stored in a cell buffer of one of the local stations and a first character is written to a register of the local station when the cell destined for the central station is presented in the local station. A second character is written to the register of the local station when an empty time slot is present in the local station. The register of each of the local stations are periodically read, and contents of the read local registers of the local stations are transmitted to the central station as register codes. Permit codes are transmitted from the central station to the local stations based on a location of the first characters in the registers, with the permit codes signifying permission to transmit a cell during a specific time slot.
