How to Guarantee Realtime Behavior Using Ethernet
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ethernet is now conquering the field level in automation technology. Realtime behavior is a knock-out criterion therefore. This paper deals with the key concepts for guaranteed realtime behavior using Ethernet, based on the requirements of factory automation. A classification of the vendor-driven approaches that are currently under discussion for realtime Ethernet is provided.

Introduction to Real-Time Ethernet I
Real-time electronic distributed control systems are an important development of the technological evolution. Electronics are employed to control and monitor most safety-critical applications from flight decks to hospital operating rooms. As these real-time systems become increasingly prevalent and advanced, so does the demand to physically distribute the control in strict real-time. Thus, ther...

Ethernet performance has increased from megabits per second (Mbits/s) to gigabits per second (Gbits/s) and its popularity reflects not only its status as an IEEE standard, but because the Ethernet protocol has a number of features and benefits that have proved attractive to designers and engineers: Long established and well understood technology; Allows low-cost network implementations; Provide...
متن کاملEnhanced Ethernet Switching for Flexible Hard Real-Time Communication
Switched Ethernet arose in the last decade as a means to increase global throughput with parallel switching paths, segment the network and create isolated collision domains, thus reducing the non-determinism of the original shared Ethernet. However the services provided by COTS Ethernet switches are not enough to guarantee real-time communication, which lead to the development of several switch...
