Wireless control area network

The authors present the two different access method for wireless control area network. The performance of the protocols are evaluated by simulating the models of the protocols using set of signals called the “SAE Benchmark” The Benchmark table provides an example to illustrate the application of control area network (CAN) system. CAN is a system based on multimaster serial bus configuration developed by Bosch GmBh. The CAN network meets the requirements of real-time fundamentals. It reduces the message delivery time with its prioritised message architecture. Therefore, the wireless access methods based on CAN network must satisfy the message delivery time for real-time applications. Moreover, the messages with higher priorities must be delivered to the destination before any other messages with lower priority. We propose the radiofrequency medium access (RFMAC) and the wireless medium access control (WMAC) protocols for wireless communication having regard to the existing wireless access methods
