Real-Time Communication with Dynamic Network Traffic using Time-Sensitive Networking
by Lisa Maile from TU Braunschweig (Germany)
Abstract: Safety-critical tasks in today's world depend on networks that must avoid information loss or unexpected delays. The growing demand for robust and responsive networks has led to the emergence of Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), which provides deterministic data transmission for real-time communications. However, TSN lacks flow allocation and device configuration algorithms that are essential for real-time operation.
This presentation addresses these gaps by detailing design aspects for reliable real-time communication, using the worst-case latency analysis method called Network Calculus. The topic evaluates current TSN standards and proposes scalable solutions for safety-critical real-time communication. The results have been implemented in an open-source framework which covers multiple design aspects, from flow prioritization to bandwidth reservation, thereby focusing on reservation independent deadline guarantees for highly dynamic scenarios.
