MULTIPLEX DATA BUS NETWORKS FOR MIL-STD-1760A STORES AIR4013

This document will examine network aspects of open and shorted stubs, line reflections and bus loading due to network changes. Single network level is assumed, that is, no carriage store hierarchical levels. However, two passive network coupling variants called "branched bus" and "branched stub" will be introduced that possibly could be used in a stores management network.

This report assumes familiarity with MIL-STD-1553B.
