Whitepaper #3: Time Sensitive Networking - TSN Ethernet Switched Endpoint Controller
Fraunhofer IPMS - Wireless Microsystems
Author: Marcus Pietzsch
Currently under development by the IEEE, time-sensitive networking (TSN) is the functional extension of IEEE 802.1 Ethernet networks. The set of standards aims to allow for time- and non-time-critical data to be simultaneously transmitted in a connected network, paving the way for company-wide implementation of a uniform and convergent Ethernet network - from the field level to management level. Such networks must meet the following requirements:
- Low latency fluctuations (jitter)
- Guaranteed end-to-end latencies for the parallel transmission of (time) critical and uncritical data traffic over a convergent network
- Low packet loss
