Abstract

This paper presents a performance analysis of a networked control system (NCS) applied to a machining cell. The statistical analysis and time-delay characteristics of three control networks are first obtained by simulating the network protocols under expected traffic loads. This time-delay data is used in a simulation of a machining system, and the control system performance is evaluated. The simulation results provide guidelines for determining the optimal sampling rate for an NCS
