Abstract
The authors propose basic access protocols for a twin-bus unidirectional bus system (UBS) implementation. The proposed protocols are fairly similar to that of Fasnet. However, the gaps between cycles have been considerably reduced. The savings will particularly increase with cable bandwidth. In fact, except for a few cases of light load traffic the proposed protocol achieves close to 100% channel utilization.<>
