Abstract

The controller area network (CAN) architecture was developed for use in automobiles in the 1980´s. It corresponds to the physical and datalink layers of the OSI network protocol stack. Manufacturers currently leverage and build upon this architecture to enable on-vehicle sensors, actuators and other commercial electronics to interoperate: communicate between different components, exchange data, and resolve operational dependencies. This paper examines the inner details of CAN and its three competitive networks, namely, TTCAN, FlexRay and LIN.
