Hybrid message conversion technique to reduce jitter in CAN based distributed embedded system

Controller Area Network (CAN) can be employed to perform Real time operations in distributed system. Time bounded distributed task execution demands effective performance of different nodes in Real time systems. Performance of the task highly depends on reliable communication between node to node & control efficiency of the distributed system. CAN bus serial communication is capable to handle time bound operations of real time system. Continues evaluation of the parameters like real-time capability, message response time, bandwidth utilization, jitter, etc improves system performance. In this paper authors propose a bit stuffing mechanism that reduces jitter which can improves overall performance of the CAN bus based real time system.
