Title Of Article :
Extending PROFIBUS segments through IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN
Abstract :
PROFIBUS is defined with international standards is a fieldbus standard with widespread usage in industrial process control applications. PROFIBUS as other Fieldbus systems has two main requirements such as extending independent PROFIBUS segments and communicating with other LANs. To overcome these requirements the best solution is to utilize wireless network technologies due to advantages such as high data rates, cost and mobility etc. In this research work, the designed PROFIBUS/IEEE 802.11g WLAN Wireless Interworking Unit (WIU) is presented to extend PROFIBUS segment through IEEE 802.11 g WLAN. Modeling and computer simulation of the designed WIU are performed using discrete-event simulation technique. Performance evaluation of the Wireless Interworking Unit is carried out according to utilization of PROFIBUS segments, end- to-end message delay of independent PROFIBUS segments (remote) messages and WIU process time parameters.
