Solutions for PLC intelligent industrial-control network based on TTE

In the process of China's automated production, the upgrading and networking of old infrastructures becomes one of the key issues. With large quantity, numerous varieties and wide distribution, these infrastructures brings complex design work and high cost to network them into fieldbus, which greatly hamper the building of intelligent factories. This paper proposed an industrial-control solution to network these infrastructures by power line carrier (PLC) communication. The solution applies Time-Triggered Ethernet(TTE), one of the real-time Ethernet to solve the problem of communication congestion and can limit the control accuracy on the level of ns. The network performance of TTE is verified on OMNeT++ at the last of the paper.
