Felix Ottofuelling

For over 15 years, Felix has been working in the field of testing and validating in-vehicle networks and ECUs based on CAN, CAN FD, LIN, FlexRay and, today, automotive Ethernet. This covers the testing of individual ECUs on test benches and entire vehicles during fleet testing with high-end datalogging systems. His current area of interest is the design of zonal architectures for software-defined vehicles, based on automotive Ethernet.

Automotive Ethernet – how 10BASE-T1S is replacing legacy bus topologies

Automotive Ethernet is the enabler for zonal networks. However, the high gigabit bandwidth between HPC and zonal controls is not required in all areas; in particular, the zones with the peripheral components for actuators, sensors, etc. require much less bandwidth. For this application, a new physical layer 10BASE-T1S is applied. Learn how the 10BASE-T1S network is different from automotive Ethernet, and how this network can support bus-type architectures very similar to CAN with the benefits of all automotive Ethernet protocols. The presentation will explain how 10BASE-T1S technology can replace CAN FD networks and foster an all-ethernet architecture.
