Scheduling Algorithms for Time-Sensitive Networking
We developed advanced scheduling algorithms for Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) that enable deterministic, high-performance data transmission over standard Ethernet. These algorithms solve the complex task of generating time-triggered communication schedules required by demanding real-time applications in automotive, robotics, audio/video, and industrial control. The solution was integrated by a major TSN switch producer into their configuration tools and validated on industrial testbeds and IEEE 802.1Qbv benchmarks. The technology has been adopted for PLC-controlled systems that need strict timing guarantees and high data throughput.

Highlights

  • Integrated into TSN products by a leading switch producer (Huawei).
  • Validated on industrial control applications and IEEE 802.1Qbv testbench.
