ABSTRACT:
A looped bus system includes several nodes connected by unidirectional buses having opposite directions of signal transmission. The head of bus function for each bus is located at a node different from the head of bus function for the other bus. The head of bus function for each bus is located at the same node as the termination of bus function for the other bus. As a result, the buses can be reconfigured and nodes can be added freely by the use of a bus portion that is unused in the looped bus under normal condition.
