A Real-Time MAC Protocol for In-Vehicle Power Line Communications Based on HomePlug GP

Abstract: This paper proposes a new media access control (MAC) protocol for in-vehicle power line communications (PLC). Specifically, the proposed protocol is based on the HomePlug Green PHY (HomePlug GP) which is a modern PLC protocol standard for Smart Grid applications on the Home Area Network [1], however, it has been found that current HomePlug protocols would not cope with the strict timing requirements of in-vehicle communication systems. This paper suggests improvements and modifications to enhance the real-time… Show more

“…The adoption of HomePlug into vehicle communications has been considered until recently [26]- [28], in which the authors proposed modified HomePlug and IEEE 1901 protocols for in-car PLC. However, it is not clear what is the fundamental limit of the solution in handling time-critical invehicle data transmission.…”

“…Hence, DC-based PLC is very suitable for the IV communication purpose. Several previous works about the DC-based IV PLC have been published in [11]- [13]. However, the developed DC-based PLC systems were not implemented in a real vehicle.…”

“…It is clear that when collision happens, i.e., BPC >= 1, the worst delay performance cannot satisfy the hard requirement of in-vehicle control and safety applications, which is largely because of the beacon periods incurred by the retransmission. For the cases when more nodes need to access the channel, our work [20] and [18] have proposed modified HPGP solutions to achieve collision free transmission for in-vehicle networks, which is out of scope of this paper. Compared with Table I, the worst delay bounds obtained show that it is not recommended to use HPGP in a direct manner for delay-critical in-vehicle communications, particularly when the number of nodes and priorities are not properly configured to avoid collision.…”
