ABSTRACT:
A local bus network is constructed in a star configuration and comprises transmission direction-associated star lines, the transmission channels leading from the peripheral stations to the central star point being respectively monitored at the star point for the appearance of a channel state signal transmitted from the respective station and identifying the transmission channel as busy or free. The useful signal transmitted in the transmission channel is thereby only forwarded after recognition of a "busy" signal, whereas the appertaining transmission channel is otherwise inhibited at the central star point at the receiver.
