The use of systems for such as the speed of the vehicle) are exchanged by up to 70 communications between the electronic control units (ECU) of a ECUs” [1]. Until the beginning of the 1990s, exchange of data vehicle in production cars dates from the beginning of the 1990s. was done by point-to-point links between ECUs, which The specific requirements of the different car domains have led required an amount of communication channels, was not able to the development of a large number of automotive systems such to manage the increasing use of ECUs because of the weight as Local Interconnect Network (LIN), J1850, CAN, TTP/C, and cost problems, reliability and complexity caused by the FlexRay, media-oriented system transport (MOST), IDB1394, wires and the connectors. These issues encouraged the use of etc. This paper presents the study on character and performance networks where the communications are shared over a of various protocols which is widely used in automotive industry and automation systems.
