  • Fieldbus Communication: Industry Requirements and Future Projection
    MÄLARDALEN UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF INNOVATION, DESIGN AND ENGINEERING VÄSTERÅS, SWEDEN Thesis for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering - Computer Network Engineering | 15.0 hp | DVA333 FIELDBUS COMMUNICATION: INDUSTRY REQUIREMENTS AND FUTURE PROJECTION Erik Viking Niklasson [email protected] Examiner: Mats Björkman Mälardalen University, Västerås, Sweden Supervisor: Elisabeth Uhlemann Mälardalen University, Västerås, Sweden 2019-09-04 Erik Viking Niklasson Fieldbus Communication: Industry Requirements and Future Projection Abstract Fieldbuses are defined as a family of communication media specified for industrial applications. They usually interconnect embedded systems. Embedded systems exist everywhere in the modern world, they are included in simple personal technology as well as the most advanced spaceships. They aid in producing a specific task, often with the purpose to generate a greater system functionality. These kinds of implementations put high demands on the communication media. For a medium to be applicable for use in embedded systems, it has to reach certain requirements. Systems in industry practice react on real-time events or depend on consistent timing. All kinds are time sensitive in their way. Failing to complete a task could lead to irritation in slow monitoring tasks, or catastrophic events in failing nuclear reactors. Fieldbuses are optimized for this usage. This thesis aims to research fieldbus theory and connect it to industry practice. Through interviews, requirements put on industry are explored and utilization of specific types of fieldbuses assessed. Based on the interviews, guidelines are put forward into what fieldbus techniques are relevant to study in preparation for future work in the field. A discussion is held, analysing trends in, and synergy between, state of the art and the state of practice.

    Solution Blueprint Internet of Things (IoT) Improving Transportation Safety, Efficiency, and the Customer Experience with the Internet of Things (IoT) Kontron* uses intelligent gateways based on Intel® technology in connected transportation systems. Executive Summary Digital information has become the life blood of the transportation industry with networks of computer chips and sensors integral to nearly every aspect, including public transport, fleet management, surveillance, ticketing, passenger information, etc. Today, most systems operate in relative silos, but this is changing as municipalities see the compelling benefits from improved information sharing. This is what the Internet of Things (IoT) is designed to do: provide the connectivity, Driving a data revolution in security, interoperability, analytics, and monetization capabilities that enable intelligent transportation. the transportation industry Information in the right hands at the right time opens the door to all sorts of possibilities. In the case of buses, real-time passenger count data allows fleet operators to better optimize timetables to ensure sufficient numbers of buses are scheduled on heavily-travelled routes. Analytics software can provide scheduling suggestions based on passenger patterns correlated to the time of day, holidays, local events, weather, etc. Vehicle diagnostic information helps operations crews perform preventive maintenance, as in making a preemptive repair (e.g., replace Improving Transportation Safety, Efficiency, and the Customer Experience with the Internet of Things (IoT) Table of Contents brake pads, worn tires) to avoid a Solution Benefits breakdown or an expensive major repair. Intelligent transportation based on Executive Summary . 1 Up-to-date timetables on information IoT technologies from Kontron and Key Business Objectives . 2 displays give passengers en route a Intel can ultimately help municipalities higher level of customer service.

  • And Zigbee Protocol for Industrial Process Monitoring and Control
    © June 2015 | IJIRT | Volume 2 Issue 1 | ISSN: 2349-6002 Implementation of Controller Area Network (CAN) and ZigBee Protocol for Industrial process monitoring and control Syed Shafiullah1, Renuka Sagar2 1Student, Ballari Institute of Technology & Management, Bellary, Karnataka, India. 2Assistant Professor, Ballari Institute of Technology & Management, Bellary, Karnataka, India. Abstract - Automation is a set of technologies that results progression from existing sensor networks. It will in operation of machines and systems without significant prove itself efficient and economic media for human intervention and achieves performance superior communication. The CAN bus provides an ideal to manual operation. Embedded systems in general and platform for interconnecting nodes and allows each microcontrollers in particular are playing a key role in node to communicate with any other node. Controller today’s industrial automation and remote monitoring era for enhanced productivity and reduced cost. A Area Network (CAN) protocol can be used for the wireless remote controller in which providing a wireless communication between nodes and by using ZigBee sensing solution for industries to operate essential protocol we can transmit the data to the end user by industrial appliances, ranging from simple lightings to means of wireless.

  • Automotive Data Acquisition System - FST
    Automotive data acquisition system - FST David Rua Copeto nº 53598 Dissertation for obtaining the Master’s Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering Jury President: Prof. Marcelino Santos Advisor: Prof. Francisco Alegria Co-Advisor: Prof. Moisés Piedade Specialist: Prof. Nuno Roma October 2009 ii Resumo Esta tese aborda o design, a implementação e a validação de um sistema de telemetria para um protótipo Formula Student, tendo em mente uma rede de sensores suportada num barramento CAN, existente neste. Para o conseguir, o sistema proposto é dividido em dois blocos: uma estação móvel e uma estação base. A primeira, é colocada no veículo e ligada aos seus sensores através do barra- mento CAN. Esta estação móvel tem a função de gravar localmente os dados gerados pela actividade no barramento e também de transferir sem fios, estes dados, para a estação base fora da pista. A segunda, tem a função de pegar nos dados recebidos através do canal sem-fios e de os apresentar ao utilizador de uma forma atraente e compreensível. Para além do funcionamento “online”, a estação base também permite a apresentação de dados relativos a sessões anteriores para análise. Dado o tipo de veículo (e competição) a que este trabalho se aplica, existem algumas exigências tanto em termos de capacidade do sistema, como de gestão do projecto. Por um lado, o sistema deve ser capaz de resistir a ambientes adversos, nomeadamente vibração, calor, líquidos e interferência electromagnética, e por outro deve ser leve, barato e fácil de utilizar. O sistema de telemetria desenvolvido foi utilizado com sucesso numa pista de treinos, sendo capaz de gravar com fiabilidade os dados provenientes do barramento CAN com um número, frequência de amostragem e tipo variável de sensores.

  • TCQSM Part 8
    Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual—2nd Edition PART 8 GLOSSARY This part of the manual presents definitions for the various transit terms discussed and referenced in the manual. Other important terms related to transit planning and operations are included so that this glossary can serve as a readily accessible and easily updated resource for transit applications beyond the evaluation of transit capacity and quality of service. As a result, this glossary includes local definitions and local terminology, even when these may be inconsistent with formal usage in the manual. Many systems have their own specific, historically derived, terminology: a motorman and guard on one system can be an operator and conductor on another. Modal definitions can be confusing. What is clearly light rail by definition may be termed streetcar, semi-metro, or rapid transit in a specific city. It is recommended that in these cases local usage should prevail.
