Abstract:
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for assessing error over a communication link. The apparatus for assessing error is provided with a logic unit containing a plurality of modules configured to execute the necessary steps of creating one or more test packets, determining an amount of test packets to send over a communication link to a receiving node, sending a plurality of test packets over the communication link to a receiving node, interspersing test packets throughout a plurality of data packets such that the receiving node is able to continually process the data packets, and checking test packets received by the receiving node for errors.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for providing packet delivery that is guaranteed by a redundant path and an error checking process while communication signal lines between nodes are suppressed to a minimum. SOLUTION: The redundant communication system and method for providing data communication between a first computing node and a second computing node are as follows. A transmitter is provided as a part of the first computing node. A receiver is provided as a part of the second computing node. A first signal line transmits a first data signal. The first signal line electrically connects the transmitter to the receiver. A second signal line transmits a second data signal which is redundant with respect to the first data signal. The second signal line electrically connects the transmitter to the receiver. The receiver checks the first data signal to determine if there is any error, and if an error is detected in the first data signal, the second node uses the second data signal.
