The main reason for this is that it has a high data troughput, 10Mbit/s and higher, and good EMI characteristics. As a protocol that might be used in real-time environments such as control systems for cars etc, it seems to fulfil the requirements. TTEthernet is a TDMA extension to normal Eth- ernet, designed to meet the hard deadlines required by real-time networks. This thesis describes how TTEthernet handles frames and the mathemat- ical formulas to calculate shuffle delay of frames in such a network. Open problems related to TTEthernet are also discussed. iii Contents 1 Introduction 1 2 Ethernet 2 2.1 Switching . 2 2.2 Ethernet frame format . 3 2.3 The need for TTEthernet . 4 3 TTEthernet 6 3.1 TTEthernet spec . 6 3.1.1 Protocol control frames . 6 3.1.2 Time-triggered frames . 7 3.1.3 Rate constrained frames . 9 3.1.4 Best effort frames . 10 3.2 Integration Algorithms . 10 3.2.1 Shuffling . 10 3.2.2 Preemption . -
PROFINET for Network Geeks
PROFINET for Network Geeks (and those who want to be) Introduction PROFINET is an open Industrial Ethernet standard. It is a communication protocol that exchanges data between automation controllers and devices. With over 25 million installed nodes (as of 2018), PROFINET is one of the most widely used Industrial Ethernet standards worldwide. But even though millions of users are familiar with PROFINET, not all users understand how it works. This white paper starts with a brief overview of Ethernet and the 7-layer ISO-OSI model. Then, it describes how PROFINET’s 3 communication channels fit in the model: TCP/IP and UDP/IP, Real-Time (RT), and Isochronous Real-Time (IRT). 1 Ethernet The transition from using 4-20 mA analog signals for I/O communication to digital fieldbuses provided the benefits of reduced wiring, access to network data, and robust diagnostics. The later transition from digital fieldbuses to Ethernet was also similarly a shift to a more modern technology. Ethernet incorporated and improved upon the benefits of fieldbuses. Ethernet is ubiquitous and PROFINET uses standard Ethernet. Ethernet gives PROFINET the ability to provide faster updates, more bandwidth, larger messages, an unlimited address space, and even more diagnostic capabilities. Also, as commercial Ethernet evolves, PROFINET can take advantage of these physical layer improvements. Figure 1 ISO-OSI Model The ISO-OSI Model Ethernet-based communications can be represented by a seven-layer model: the ISO/OSI Reference Model. The model generically describes the means and methods used to transmit data. Each layer has a specific name and function, as shown in Figure 1. -
Generating Synthetic Voip Traffic for Analyzing Redundant Openbsd
UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Department of Informatics Generating Synthetic VoIP Traffic for Analyzing Redundant OpenBSD-Firewalls Master Thesis Maurice David Woernhard May 23, 2006 Generating Synthetic VoIP Traffic for Analyzing Redundant OpenBSD-Firewalls Maurice David Woernhard May 23, 2006 Abstract Voice over IP, short VoIP, is among the fastest growing broadband technologies in the private and commercial sector. Compared to the Plain Old Telephone System (POTS), Internet telephony has reduced availability, measured in uptime guarantees per a given time period. This thesis makes a contribution towards proper quantitative statements about network availability when using two redun- dant, state synchronized computers, acting as firewalls between the Internet (WAN) and the local area network (LAN). First, methods for generating adequate VoIP traffic volumes for loading a Gigabit Ethernet link are examined, with the goal of using a minimal set of hardware, namely one regular desktop computer. pktgen, the Linux kernel UDP packet generator, was chosen for generating synthetic/artificial traffic, reflecting the common VoIP packet characteristics packet size, changing sender and receiver address, as well as typical UDP-port usage. pktgen’s three main parameters influencing the generation rate are fixed inter-packet delay, packet size and total packet count. It was sought to relate these to more user-friendly val- ues of amount of simultaneous calls, voice codec employed and call duration. The proposed method fails to model VoIP traffic accurately, mostly due to the cur- rently unstable nature of pktgen. However, it is suited for generating enough packets for testing the firewalls. Second, the traffic forwarding limit and failover behavior of the redun- dant, state-synchronized firewalls was examined. -

The Role of CAN in the Age of Ethernet and IOT
iCC 2017 CAN in Automation The role of CAN in the age of Ethernet and IOT Christian Schlegel, HMS Industrial Networks CAN technology was developed in the 1980s and became available in 1987, just as other industrial fieldbus systems like PROFIBUS or INTERBUS entered the stage of industrial communication. Beside the fact that CAN is a success in the automotive industry and used in all types of cars today, it has also made its way in many other industrial areas. About 15 years ago, new technologies based on Ethernet started to emerge, with ap- pealing and sometimes outstanding features. Some six years ago Ethernet also started to find its way into automobiles. Today, other new communication technologies are showing up on the horizon driven by the omnipresent Industrial Internet of Things. But even now, 30 years after their introduction, these “classic” fieldbus technologies are still alive – with varying success. Since CAN was initially developed with a focus for use in automobiles, CAN has certain features that still make it the best choice for many applications in automobiles and industrial areas – even when compared to the newer technologies. This paper discusses why CAN is still a valid or even better choice for certain applica- tion areas than Ethernet-based technologies, not just focusing on the advanced fea- tures provided by the enhanced capabilities of CAN FD but also highlighting how these applications benefit from the features of “classic” CAN. Looking back into history … the requirement to transmit data between … when CAN was born these ECUs but also to connect sensors and actuators to them. -

The Future of CAN / Canopen and the Industrial Ethernet Challenge by Wilfried Voss, President Esd Electronics, Inc USA
The Future of CAN / CANopen and the Industrial Ethernet Challenge by Wilfried Voss, President esd electronics, Inc USA Industrial Ethernet technologies are a formidable challenge to CANopen as the low-cost industrial networking technology of choice. Ethernet technologies will eventually replace the majority of CANopen applications, at least in regards to new developments. For many years, Controller Area Network (CAN) and CANopen, a higher-layer protocol based on CAN, represented the best choice for low-cost industrial embedded networking. However, since the official introduction of CAN in 1986, there has been a quest to replace CAN and CANopen to overcome the most obvious shortcomings such as limited baud rate and limited network length. Industrial Ethernet technologies are currently the most formidable challenge to CANopen as the low-cost industrial networking technology of choice. Ethernet technologies will eventually replace the majority of CANopen applications, at least in regards to new developments, starting at this very moment in certain areas such as industrial control including motion control and, especially, robotics. Ironically, CAN - the underlying hardware layer of CANopen - has a far greater lifetime expectancy in the North American market than CANopen as a higher layer protocol. However, there can be too much of a good thing, and that is definitely the case when it comes to Ethernet-based fieldbus technologies. There are currently more than 20 different industrial Ethernet solutions available, all with their distinctive advantages and disadvantages, making a pro/contra decision difficult. The major question, besides the technical aspect, is which of these technologies will survive in the market, and how do they support the current need for control components.
