Statement I: MIL-STD-1553 traffic is deterministic.

Statement II: Nothing transmits until the bus controller commands it.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer.

  • A.Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
  • B.Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
  • C.Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
  • D.Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

Answer: A

Correct answer: Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

Both are true and the second explains the first. On MIL-STD-1553 no terminal transmits unless the bus controller commands it, so the traffic follows a schedule the controller holds.

Nothing contends for the medium, nothing collides, and the worst-case time to deliver any message can be computed from the schedule. That is what determinism means in this context, and it is why the standard has lasted so long in flight-critical use despite a data rate that has not changed since 1973.
