Abstract :
Wireless technology, which has boomed in the IT sector over the past years, can be suitable for industrial control networks as well, providing solutions for diagnostics, control and safety. This paper aims to develop a hybrid communication network for a network control system (NCS), by integrating the control area network (CAN) and IEEE 802.11 protocol to improve the quality of service without affecting the stability.
