Abstract
Technological advancements in automotive require networks able to support multiple communication requirements, such as reliability, real-time, low jitter, and strict delay bounds. Switched Ethernet with Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) standards is boosting its popularity in the automotive field, thanks to its ability to offer high bandwidth, real-time support and significant reduction of cabling costs. This paper provides a performance assessment of the Cyclic Queuing and Forwarding protocol defined in the IEEE 802.1Q-2018 standard through OMNeT++ simulations in an automotive scenario that includes Advanced Driver Assistance (ADAS) and Infotainment applications on a single Switched Ethernet network.
