Abstract :
This paper concerns the description of a distributed embedded control system for agricultural machines, as tractors and off-road vehicles. The distributed control system is based on the international standard ISO 11783, also known as ISOBUS standard. The paper describes the safety and system integrity analysis of a hybrid network for off-highway vehicles where ISOBUS and FlexRay protocols co-exist.
