New methods for the analysis of the physical layer of CAN networks and possibilities for robustness improvement

By Tobias Frey and
Thomas Waggershauser

With CAN-based systems being used in manifold applications that require continuous operability, also under harsh environmental conditions and extended service-cycles, the verification of CAN operability is essential. Especially, the direct detection of failure sources enabling thorough maintenance before systems may fail…
