Access Protocol for a Parallel Wideband Local Digital Communication Network (Proposed Standard),
Abstract
This report documents a proposed standard for an access protocol for interface to high capacity wideband general purpose data/communications busing system known as a 'Flexible Intraconnect.' An advanced development program is underway at RADC to design, fabricate, test and document a Flexible Intraconnect system. The objective of the development program is to prove the suitability of the Flexible Intraconnect (FI) bus technology as a standard approach to implementing military command, control and communications systems. Accordingly, documentation has been prepared describing technical characteristics and requirements of the FI. The FI System Specification No. SS07877940000 defines design parameters for the FI. A second document, called 'MIL-STD-FI' describes the FI in terms of how to interface with and gain access to information distribution services provided by the FI. This report contains the results of an in-house effort to define the access protocol to the Flexible Intraconnect. This work is presented in a form suitable for incorporation into a Military Standard. (Author)
