A Bus Topology has all devices attached to a linear transmission media. When a station transmits, the signal travels
in both directions. Signals travelling along the bus are made available to all stations. Each station checks the intended address of the signal and ignores all information not
addressed to its location. To insure that only one station transmits at a time, collision detection warns of multiple transmitting stations. Affected stations randomly begin sending
messages again, with the first to transmit solo getting the line. |
