Integration of TCP/IP and PROFIBUS Protocols

چکیده
Recent technological developments are pulling fieldbus networks to support a new wide class of applications, such as industrial multimedia applications. These applications are usually supported by the widely used TCP/IP stack. It is thus essential to provide support to TCP/IP based applications, in fieldbus networks. This paper presents an effort that is being carried out to integrate the TCP/IP and PROFIBUS stacks, in order to support industrial multimedia applications, whilst guarantying the timing requirements of control-related traffic.

Profinet – an Integrated Automation Concept Based on Ethernet
The PROFInet architecture defined by the PROFIBUS user organisation is more than a communication standard. It defines a vendor-independent engineering model covering plant-wide automation. With regard to communication it is based on DCOM, thus using TCP/IP and Ethernet. Its component-based approach goes beyond OPC’s tag-based approach. Functionally PROFInet extends the configuration and diagnos...
متن کاملApplying Lessons from Cyber Attacks on Ukrainian Infrastructures to Secure Gateways onto the Industrial Internet of Things
Previous generations of safety-related industrial control systems were ‘air gapped’. In other words, process control components including Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and smart sensor/actuators were disconnected and isolated from local or wide area networks. This provided a degree of protection; attackers needed physical access to compromise control systems components. Over time this ‘...
متن کاملA Framework for Integrating Wireless Sensor Networks and the Internet
The integration of Wireless Sensor Networks and the Internet is growing in importance as WSNs have been employed in a great variety of applications which need a common means to share data over the Internet. In the recent years, many solutions have been proposed to provide that integration. The simplest and most popular one is the gateway-based approach [1], which basically converts between prot...
متن کاملDeadlock situations in TCP over ATM
The implementation of protocols, such as TCP/IP, and their integration into the operating system environment is very decisive for protocol performance. Putting TCP on high-speed networks, e.g. ATM, with large maximum transmission units causes the TCP maximum segment size to be relatively large. What Nagle’s consider “small” is not small anymore. We report on TCP/IP throughput performance measur...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of Tcp Based Applications Using Double Constellation Geo/leo Architecture
The implementation of an IP based worldwide network needs the availability of a very efficient satellite segment in order to achieve real global coverage. To this aim the satellite component shall provide flexibility and high link availability. Satellite systems based on the use of geostationary (GEO) or Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellations suffer from their intrinsic limitations in terms of co...
