Analysis of Switched Ethernet Networks with Different Topologies Used in Automation Systems

  • Conference paper
Fieldbus Technology

Abstract

Ethernet is the most famous type of communication network used for office applications. Currently, networks used on field level and on office level are different due to their specific requirements. Especially for real-time systems, the deterministic behavior of the network is very important. Now Switched Ethernet seems to be applicable also on field level, because collisions can be avoided and priorities can be used. In this paper Switched Ethernet networks with different topologies are analyzed concerning the transmission delays. Therefore a typical master-slave scenario of an automation system is investigated.
