Abstract:
A method for avoiding collision over a communication network, wherein devices are connected to the same medium. Each device has an access control module, a transceiver and a data exchange module. The access control module is configured to transmit data to the data exchange module when it receives information that no data is present on the medium. The transceiver is configured to transmit data on the medium each time it receives data from the data exchange module. The data exchange modules of all the devices are synchronized and then offered, in sequence, the opportunity to transmit data on the medium. The opportunity to transmit is offered dynamically after a previous transmission end or, if no transmission occurred, after a predetermined time range has expired. The data exchange module transmits data to the transceiver of the same device only when it is offered the opportunity to transmit.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 2 , wherein if a data exchange module, while in the process of delaying data transmission, receives from the transceiver module an indication that valid data is received from the medium, the data exchange module:\n discards any buffered data received from the access control module, stores an information that the access control module has data to be transmitted, transmits to the access control module an information that data is present on the medium, and transmits to the access control module an information that said data is to be transmitted again at a later time and wherein the data exchange module transmits to the access control module an information that no data is present on the medium when the data exchange module detects that it is its turn to transmit data.
