“…OPC UA Publish Subscribe mechanism was designed in the context of real-time requirements with focus on controller to controller communication, and easy integration with cloud architectures. Real-time publishing capacities have been achieved at high rates as stated in [ 27 ], the real-time synchronization of the process being managed at interrupt level. In the current implementation, the Subscribe process of the Gateway application aimed to comply with real-time behavior on application level and it have been used as part of a periodic exchange between an OPC UA Publisher responsible of distributing network messages regularly, with the final objective being for the VSOME/IP Client to receive information without missing any transmission cycle from the OPC UA Publisher.…”

With the recent advances in the area of OPC UA interfacing and the continuously growing requirements of the industrial automation world, combined with the more and more complex configurations of ECUs inside vehicles and services associated to car to infrastructure and even car to car communications, the gap between the two domains must be analyzed and filled. This gap occurred mainly because of the rigidness and lack of transparency of the software-hardware part of the automotive sector and the new demands for car to infrastructure communications. The issues are related to protocols as well as to conceptual views regarding requirements and already adopted individual directions. The industrial world is in the Industry 4.0 era, and in the Industrial Internet of Things context, its key interfacing enabler is OPC UA. Mainly to accommodate requirements related, among others, to high volumes, transfer rates, larger numbers of nodes, improved coordination and services, OPC UA enhances within its specifications the Publish-Subscribe mechanism and the TSN technology. In the OPC UA context, together with the VSOME/IP Notify-Subscribe mechanism, the current work is stepping toward a better understanding of the current relation between the needs of the industry and the suitable technologies, providing in-depth analysis on the most recent paradigms developed for data transmission, taking in consideration the real-time capabilities and use-cases of high concern in automation and automotive domains, and toward obtaining a VSOME/IP—OPC UA Gateway that includes the necessary characteristics and services in order to fill the protocol-related gap between the above mentioned fields. The developed case study results are proving the efficiency of the concept and are providing a better understanding regarding the impact between ongoing solutions and future requirements.

“…1d and 1f shows the direct comparison of the protocols, including a simple TCP and UDP echo/ACK server implemented in C. It can be seen, that the raw UDP implementation is the fastest way for exchanging messages of small sizes, which are either acknowledged or echoed back, closely followed by TCP, which has a better performance for bigger message sizes. Excluding the results of TCP and UDP, the open62541 OPC UA Pub/Sub implementation described in [15] is the fastest middleware for almost all package sizes independent of the mode. eProsima Fast RTPS is in second place, followed by OPC UA Client/Server, ROS, and then MQTT.…”

Ethernet-based protocols are getting more and more important for Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things. In this paper, we compare the features, package overhead, and performance of some of the most important protocols in this area. First, we present a general feature comparison of OPC UA, ROS, DDS, and MQTT, followed by a more detailed wire protocol evaluation, which gives an overview over the protocol overhead for establishing a connection and sending data. In the performance tests we evaluate open-source implementations of these protocols by measuring the round trip time of messages in different system states: idle, high CPU load, and high network load. The performance analysis concludes with a test measuring the round trip time for 500 nodes on the same host.

Zusammenfassung. OPC UA hat sich in den letzten Jahren als Protokoll für industrielle nicht-echtzeitkritische Kommunikation durchgesetzt. Mit OPC UA PubSub wird nun OPC UA um das Publish / Subscribe Kommunikationsmuster erweitert. Es wird gezeigt, wie OPC UA PubSub in Kombination mit Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) auch für echtzeitkritische Kommunikation genutzt werden kann. Der Ausgangspunkt ist die Erkenntnis, dass zur Einhaltung der Zeitschranken für Echtzeitkommunikation der Publisher in einem (von der Netwerkhardware getriggerten) Interrupt ausgeführt werden muss. Daraus folgern Anforderungen an die Synchronisation des PubSub Publishers mit dem nichtechtzeitkritischen OPC UA Server, dessen Informationsmodell auch die Grundlage für die im Publisher erzeugten Nachrichten ist.
