Abstract
The two-way transmissions are performed between a first bus and a usual portal of a first full-duplex 3-portal bridge and between a second bus and a usual portal of a second full-duplex 3-portal bridge, respectively. The one-way transmission of an isochronous packet and an asynchronous stream packet is performed between transmission and reception portals of the first full-duplex 3-portal bridge and reception and transmission portals of the second full-duplex 3-portal bridge. The first full-duplex 3-portal bridge and the second full-duplex 3-portal bridge perform a conversion between the asynchronous stream packet and an asynchronous packet if necessary.
