Isochronous Burst Transmission
  • A transmission process that may be used where the information-bearer channel rate is higher than the input data signaling rate.
  • Note 1: The binary digits are transferred at the information-bearer channel rate, and the transfer is interrupted at intervals in order to produce the required average data signaling rate.
  • Note 2: The interruption is always for an integral number of digit periods.
  • Note 3: The isochronous burst condition has particular application where envelopes are being transmitted and received by the data circuit-terminating equipment, but only the bytes contained within the envelopes are being transferred between data circuit-terminating equipment and the data terminal equipment. Synonyms burst isochronous (deprecated), interrupted isochronous transmission. See also information transfer, isochronous.
