Abstract :
Fieldbuses are communication systems used in industrial environments to convey information on which process control is based. Due to the nature of this information, the presence of fault tolerance mechanisms is required. This letter proposes a fault recovery protocol compliant with Interbus-S, one of the most widely used fieldbuses.
