Abstract

Fieldbus traffic consists of periodic, time-critical and time-available data. A bandwidth allocation scheme allocates periodic, time-critical and time-available data traffic to the bandwidth-limited network resource. This paper presents an implementation method of the bandwidth allocation scheme in the user layer of Foundation fieldbus. In this study, an experimental model of a Foundation Fieldbus network system is developed. Using the experimental model, validity of the bandwidth allocation scheme is examined. The results obtained from the experimental model show that the proposed scheme restricts the delay of both periodic and time-critical data to a pre-specified bound. The bandwidth allocation scheme also fully utilized the bandwidth resource of the network system.
