Both the control and entertainment loads are implemented on top of Gigabit Ethernet, each with a dedicated controller/server. The control load has mixed sampling periods. It is proven that this system can tolerate the failure of one controller in one wagon. In a two wagon scenario, fault tolerance at the controller level is studied, and simulation results show that the system can tolerate the failure of 3 controllers. The system is successful in meeting the packet end-to-end delay with zero packet loss in all OPNET simulated scenarios. The maximum permissible entertainment load is determined for the fault tolerant scenarios.展开更多

These models are studied using unmodified Fast and Gigabit Ethernet. The first is an in-loop controller model while the second is a direct Sensor to Actuator (S2A) model. OMNeT++ simulations showed the success of both models in meeting system end-to-end delay and strict zero packet loss (with no over-delayed packets) requirements. It was shown in the literature that the S2A model has a lower end-to-end delay than the in-loop controller model. It will be shown here that, on the one hand, the in-loop fault-tolerant model performs better in terms of less total end-to-end delay than the S2A model in the fault-free situation. While, on the other hand, in the scenario with the failed controller(s), the S2A model was shown to have less total end-to-end delay.展开更多

A practical distributed DA&C system for this facility has been developed. In view of the upgrading-ability and main-tainability of the control system and controlled devices, Advantech? distributed intelligent DA&C products are adopted into the control system.

The fault-tolerance study in this paper presents the cascading of two independent workcells where each controller must be able to handle the load of both cells in case of failure of the other one. The intercommunication is completely wireless between the cells and this feature is investigated. The model incorporates unmodified 802.11b and 802.11g for communication. Sensors send sampled data to both controllers and the controllers to exchange a watchdog. The fault-free and faulty models are both simulated using OPNET Network Modeler. External interference on the critical intercommunication link is also investigated. Results of simulations are presented based on a 95% confidence analysis, guaranteeing correct system performance.展开更多
