Patent

CA 2161721

A communication network called a bidirectional mesh network (MSN), also called bi-MSN, is described. The bi-MSN includes a plurality of first communication loops (horizontal loops) each comprising a plurality of nodes interconnected to one another by bidirectional communication links. The bi-MSN also includes a plurality of second communication loops (vertical loops) each comprising a plurality of nodes interconnected to one another by bidirectional communication links. Each second communication loop is connected to each first communication loop at a node whichis common to both the second communication loop and the first communication loop. This common node (and, in fact, each node in the bi-MSN) includes a switch to transfer packets from the first communication loop to the second communication loop, and vice versa, as a function of destination addresses contained in the packets.
