DATA ACKNOWLEDGMENT TO MULTIPLE DEVICES

Various systems and methods for transmitting data are described herein. In one example, a method includes detecting a plurality of data frames to be transmitted using a shared communication network and selecting a first and a second data frame from the plurality of data frames based on a deadline for each of the plurality of data frames. The method also includes transmitting, via a shared communication network, the first data frame to a first client device and waiting for a predetermined delay period. Additionally, the method includes detecting a data acknowledgement frame from the first client device and transmitting, via the shared communication network, the second data frame to a second client device, the first data frame and the second data frame to be transmitted sequentially. Furthermore, the method includes transferring control of the shared communication network to an external device.
