Patent ID: 8560727

Claim:
Data routing system (I) comprising a plurality of transmission assemblies (I 1 , I 2 , I 3 ) each including: a primary calculator ( 2 ) comprising a processor, at least one router ( 5 ) and at least two secondary calculators ( 3 ) connected to said primary calculator ( 2 ) which controls them through communication links (L 2 ), a data exchange protocol being associated with each of said communication links (L 2 ), wherein: said communication links (L 2 ) are of a heterogeneous type, having different electric standards and different communication protocols; said router ( 5 ) is controlled by said primary calculator ( 2 ); said router ( 5 ) comprises wired logic functions using at least one logic circuit of said primary calculator ( 2 ); said router ( 5 ) being configured to transfer data between said primary calculator ( 2 ) and said secondary calculators ( 3 ) and to provide a data protocol adaptation between said primary calculator ( 2 ) and said secondary calculators ( 3 ); and the primary calculator ( 2 ) of the plurality of transmission assemblies are interconnected through a high rate serial communication link (L 1 ), so that the primary calculator ( 2 ) of each of the plurality of transmission assemblies (I 1 , I 2 , I 3 ) is adapted to observe and control the primary and secondary calculators of another one of the plurality of transmission assemblies.
