Bit-oriented protocol

Bit-oriented protocol

Bit-oriented protocol is a communications protocol that sees the transmitted data as an "opaque" stream of bits with no semantics, or meaning. Control codes are defined in terms of bit sequences instead of characters. Bit oriented protocol can transfer data frames regardless of frame contents.
