摘要
The development of factory communication system has addressed the interconnection and decentralized requirements of complex automated production plants. Fieldbus networks have provided automation solutions in real-time and provided an adequate mechanism to cope with the communication requirements of control systems at the shop-floor. High-speed LANs are found to be suitable to support traffic with tight timing requirements in the factory automation environment. The automation industrial applications rely on standard TCP/UDP/IP communication for parameterization and process data exchange. Scheduling policies for CAN networks, performance measurements in real-time Ethernet networks, and the theoretical evaluation of CSMA-based networks also address the requirements of a factory communication system.
