Experimental Jitter Analysis in a FlexCAN-based Drive-by-Wire Automotive Application
White Paper
ABSTRACT
This paper describes several experiments designed to characterize jitter in an actual automotive application designed using FlexCAN, a CAN-based communication architecture. Large and variable jitter has been a liability of the CAN protocol. The paper also explains how FlexCAN reduces jitter by using a simple message scheduling technique that synchronized with control system applications.
