Abstract: | The controller area network (CAN) protocol is widely used for in-vehicle network (IVN) systems, and many automotive companies
also use the CAN in chassis network systems. However, the increasing number of electronic control units (ECUs) dictated by
the need for more intelligent and fuel-efficient functions requires an IVN system with a greater transmission capacity and
less network delay. Automotive companies have tried several approaches such as segmenting CAN systems and developing time-triggered
protocols. This paper presents a practical method for increasing the transmission capacity and reducing the network delay
in CAN systems using dual communication channels with a traffic-balancing algorithm based on Kalman prediction to forecast
the traffic on each channel and allocate frames to the one that is most appropriate. An experimental testbed using commercial
microcontrollers with two or more CAN protocol controllers was used to demonstrate the feasibility of the Kalman traffic-balancing
algorithm. Experimental results show that the traffic-balancing CAN system with Kalman prediction reduced the transmission
delay of all priority messages compared to that of a simple method, such as a channel-switching CAN, without sacrificing the
performance for high-priority messages. |
