A serial 4-wire bus (GND, Power and a differential Data Signal transferred over 2 wires). A quite clever designed Protocol for communication between the PC Host and peripheral devices like e.g. DVB Receivers. Since devices are defined as dumb clients that get polled by the USB Host Controller the USB device chipsets can get very cheap compared to IEEE1394 chips providing the same functionality.
Specified by the USB Consortium, spec is publicly available on http:://www.usb.org/.
