A Standardized Smart Transducer Interface
نویسندگان
چکیده
In December 2000 the Object Management Group (OMG) called for a proposal of a smart transducer interface. In response a new standard has been proposed that comprises a time-triggered transport service within the distributed smart transducer subsystem and a well-defined interface to a CORBA environment. This smart transducer standard has been adopted by the OMG in January 2002. The smart transducer interface and the time-triggered transport service have been implemented in the time-triggered fieldbus protocol TTP/A. This paper examines the strengths and weaknesses of the smart transducer interface and presents two case studies. The first case study describes a demonstrator with a robot arm that is instrumented by smart transducers and a TTP/A fieldbus. The second case study is an autonomous mobile robot instrumented by a TTP/A cluster that orientates itself via a set of heterogenous sensors and decides, based on this sensor data, which way to

متن کاملA standard for real-time smart transducer interface
In order to handle the inherent complexity of the multitude of available different transducer components, a generic interface approach is necessary. Such a universal smart transducer interface should provide precisely defined interfaces between smart transducers and their users, which are simple and precisely specified within the value domain and the temporal domain. The Object Management Group...
متن کاملA Universal Smart Transducer Interface: TTP/A
The primary goal of a universal smart transducer interface is the provision of a framework that helps to reduce the complexity of large distributed real-time systems by introducing precisely specified (in the value domain and in the temporal domain) and small interfaces between smart transducers and their users. This paper presents a universal smart transducer interface that can be implemented ...
