EVALUATION OF CONTROL MONITOR AN/GGS-11 PROTOTYPE
Abstract
The AN/GGA-11 provides a means for a station to subscribe to receive only desired information from traffic passing on a high-speed party line type of communications network. The Control Monitor is also capable of activating one of six transmitters to transmit information upon request from a Master Control Station. The request is a call-up code consisting of a 5-character, 25bit, call-up word. Each station compares the incoming call-up word with as many as 1000 such words stored on a Mylar disk within the Monitor. Between each call-up word, a complete message is transmitted, and an end of message indication alerts each station to receive the next call-up word, even though a particular station may not have been interested in the previous message.
