Abstract
A method and apparatus for providing full duplex asynchronous communication between two transceivers in a communication system is disclosed. First each bit period is divided in half creating a transmit half bit period and a receive half bit period wherein each transceiver can transmit data during the transmit half bit periods and can receive data during the receive half bit periods. The bit periods of the two transceivers are synchronized so that the transmit half bit periods of each transceiver are aligned with the receive half bit periods of the other transceiver.
