2.4 Communication Interface (CI)

The purpose of the CI is to:

  • Receive data from and send data to a host
  • Implement a communication protocol
  • Parse the data, validate a packet, and execute the appropriate command
  • Based on the output of the function, generate a response

Following the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model, the CI is divided into two modules:

  • Physical-DataLink (PHY-DL)
  • Network-Application (NWK-APP)
