OPC UA and TSN Networking for Field Level Communication - Bhagath Singh Karunakaran, Kalycito
Naturally, standard Ethernet does not guarantee real-time communication. So, to provide guaranteed cycle times and latencies for machine control and process automation using Ethernet, vendors implemented real-time Fieldbus protocols on top of it. Thereby creating a specialised type of Ethernet that is unusable for anything else, and causes fragmentation of industrial networks due to incompatibilities of Fieldbus protocols. But yet, for the success of Industry 4.0, what is required is one type of Ethernet network that is usable for both, executing time-critical OT processes, as well as for…
