ABSTRACT:
A data communication system allocates use of a common data communication medium shared by a plurality of stations. During each transmission cycle, the communication medium carries data packets of varying priority which each station receives. The stations are allocated use of the communication medium during one or more priority intervals as a function of the priority of the packet which the station is ready to transmit. Each station is synchronized to a transmission cycle period which is divided into subperiods. Certain types of packets are relegated to transmission and reception within predetermined subperiods.
