ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a broad-band, time-division multiplex, token-passing, ring local area network, with which both circuit-switched and packet-switched traffic, namely data, text, picture and speech traffic can be supported. The invention has for its object to provide a method of transmitting digital information in a ring having a comparatively high transmission capacity with which rapid access to the common ring transmission means can be obtained, without however high requirements being imposed on the processing speed of the stations. According to the invention this is in principle achieved by means of a method which guarantees that per time-division multiplex frame only one time slot, which is known to the station, needs to be accessed.
