As vehicles become more intelligent for safety and convenience of drivers, in-vehicle networking systems such as controller are network (CAN) have been widely used due to increasing number of electronic control unit (ECU). Recently, FlexRay was developed to replace CAN protocol in chassis networking systems, to remedy the shortage of transmission capacity and unsatisfactory real-time transmission delay of conventional CAN. However, it is difficult for vehicle network designers to calculate platform configuration registers (PCR) and determine a base cycle or slot length of FlexRay. To assist vehicle network designers for designing FlexRay cluster, this paper presents automatic field bus exchange format (FIBEX) generation algorithm from CANdb information, which is de-facto standard database format for CAN. To design this program, structures of FIBEX, CANdb and relationship among PCR variables are analyzed.

As increasing the number of Electronic Control Units in a vehicle, the proportion for reliability and stability of the software is going increasingly. Accordingly, the traditional CAN network has occurred the situation that the requirement of developing vehicle software is not sufficient. To solve these problems, the FlexRay network which is ensured the high bandwidth and real-time is generated. However it is difficult to implement FlexRay based application software because of complex protocol than traditional CAN network. Accordingly the system for analysis and verification of network state is needed. Also vehicle vendor develops application software using Matlab/Simulink in order to increase productivity. But this development method is hard to solve the network problem of node to node. Therefore this paper implements Matlab/Simulink based FlexRay network system and verifies it through comparing with existing embedded system.

This paper shows how the performance of an ESC(Electronic Stability Control) system can be affected by the selection of in-vehicle network protocols such as CAN or FlexRay. The vehicle control performance under ESC operation is analyzed by EILS(ECU-In-the-Loop Simulation). The experimental set-up for the EILS of the ESC system consists of two 32-bit microcontroller boards communicated with CAN or FlexRay protocols. A 7-DOF vehicle model and an ESC algorithm with 2-DOF reference vehicle model are implemented on each microcontroller respectively. It is shown by experimental results that the ESC system using the FlexRay protocol can achieve better performance than that using the CAN protocol for a fast and accurate lane changing.

Recently, there is use of the vehicle network for vehicle diagnostic method and Increased use of the vehicle protocol such as (CAN(Controller Area Network), MOST, LIN, FlexRay), Distributed control and data about the vehicle are being sought methods for real-time observation and monitoring and trend tends to have gone into this. In this case of automotive diagnostic module in today, there is Primarily to use DLC(Data Link Connector)Connector called self-check terminal. Generally, vehicle Diagnoses to use DLC Connector such as OBD2(On Board Diagnostics) Through Diagnostic Module(scanner). But there limit diagnostic as engine and powertrain part, and not consider user's perspective In this paper, By designing Vehicle diagnostic monitoring system using Ethernet Port, transmit and Receives CAN protocol vehicle data, and implement Easily monitoring system that provide and Diagnoses to provide vehicle's state and information to use PC.

Recently, Ethernet-based Diagnostic Over Internet Protocol (DoIP) was applied to automotive systems, and in-vehicle gateways have been introduced to integrate Ethernet with traditional in-vehicle networks, such as the local interconnect network (LIN), controller area network (CAN) and FlexRay. The introduction of in-vehicle gateways and of Ethernet based diagnostic protocols not only decreases the complexity of the networks, but also reduces the update time for ECU software reprogramming while enabling the use of a range of services, including remote diagnostics. In this paper, a diagnostic gateway was implement for an automotive system, and the performance measurements are presented. In addition, a range of applications provided by the diagnostic gateway are proposed.

A large number of motors and sensors are used to drive a humanoid robot. In order to solve the wiring problem that occurs when connecting multiple actuators, a controller based on a communication network has been used, and CAN, which is advantageous in terms of cost and a highly reliable communication protocol, was mainly used. In terms of the structure of the controller, a torque control type structure that is easy to implement an advanced algorithm into the upper controller is preferred. In this case, the low communication bandwidth of CAN becomes a problem, and in order to obtain sufficient communication bandwidth, a communication network is configured by separating into a plurality of CAN networks. In this study, a stability analysis on transmission time delay is performed for a multi-motor control system in which high-speed FlexRay and low-speed CAN communication networks are hierarchically connected in order to obtain a high communication bandwidth, and sensor information and driving signals are delivered within the allowed transmission time. The proposed hierarchical network-based control system is expected to improve control performance because it can implement multiple motor control systems with a single network.
