Abstract
Signal transmission apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed. In various embodiments, a signal transmission system includes a transmission network having signal paths configured to communicate signals from an input to an output, a first steering network coupled to the input that communicates with the transmission network, and a second steering network coupled to the output that communicates with the transmission network. A steering control network that receives error signals corresponding to an inoperable signal path and that generates steering signals directed to the first steering network and the second steering network is included, so that the steering signals shift signals to an alternate, operable signal path from the inoperable signal path. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
