ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a method of transmitting data via a bus system coupling a plurality of bus participants with an arbitration procedure for the plurality of bus participants. The invention further enables bus arbitration during a first transmission since that the bus can be granted for a second transmission following the first transmission without wasting bus cycles. This is accomplished by determining the number of cycles remaining for the first transmission according to memory boundary and transmission packet boundary conditions.
