  • Schedulability Analysis of Ethernet Audio Video Bridging Networks with Scheduled Traffic Support
    Real-Time Syst DOI 10.1007/s11241-017-9268-5 Schedulability analysis of Ethernet Audio Video Bridging networks with scheduled traffic support Mohammad Ashjaei1 · Gaetano Patti2 · Moris Behnam1 · Thomas Nolte1 · Giuliana Alderisi2 · LuciaLoBello2 © The Author(s) 2017. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract The IEEE Audio Video Bridging (AVB)technology is nowadays under con- sideration in several automation domains, such as, automotive, avionics, and industrial communications. AVB offers several benefits, such as open specifications, the exis- tence of multiple providers of electronic components, and the real-time support, as AVB provides bounded latency to real-time traffic classes. In addition to the above men- tioned properties, in the automotive domain, comparing with the existing in-vehicle networks, AVB offers significant advantages in terms of high bandwidth, signifi- cant reduction of cabling costs, thickness and weight, while meeting the challenging EMC/EMI requirements. Recently, an improvement of the AVB protocol, called the AVB ST, was proposed in the literature, which allows for supporting scheduled traffic, i.e., a class of time-sensitive traffic that requires time-driven transmission and low latency. In this paper, we present a schedulability analysis for the real-time traffic crossing through the AVB ST network. In addition, we formally prove that, if the bandwidth in the network is allocated according to the AVB standard, the schedula- bility test based on response time analysis will fail for most cases even if, in reality, these cases are schedulable. In order to provide guarantees based on analysis test a bandwidth over-reservation is required.

Representation includes file and streaming formats for object-based audio. Provision is the distribution to end-user, including IP delivery, unicast streams and file downloads. For both file and streaming formats interoperable metadata have to be used. Among the requirements for the different formats are metadata support, existing standards, file size, compression, and support of advanced audio. The most important requirements for streaming formats are related to synchronization, existing standards, unicast and multicast transmission, latency, bitrate reduction, synchronization of audio signals, quality of service and specific requirements for streaming object- based audio metadata.
