Media Oriented Systems Transport
R
The name of this data bus system is derived
from "Media Oriented Systems Transport
(MOST) Cooperation". This is an association
formed by various motor vehicle
manufacturers, their suppliers and software
companies with a view to developing
a standard high-speed data transfer system.
MOST bus
The term "Media Oriented Systems Transport"
signifies a network featuring media-oriented
data transport. This means that, in contrast to
the CAN data bus, address-oriented
messages are transmitted to a specific
receiver.
This technique is used in Audi vehicles for the
transfer of infotainment system data.
The infotainment system offers a wide range
of modern information and entertainment
media. In addition to the familiar CAN bus
systems, use has been made for the first time
in the Audi A8 ´03 of an optical data bus
system.
