Gateway Framework for In-Vehicle Networks Based on CAN, FlexRay, and Ethernet

Abstract

This paper proposes a gateway framework for in-vehicle networks (IVNs) based on the controller area network (CAN), FlexRay, and Ethernet. The proposed gateway framework is designed to be easy to reuse and verify to reduce development costs and time. The gateway framework can be configured, and its verification environment is automatically generated by a program with a dedicated graphical user interface (GUI). The gateway framework provides state-of-the-art functionalities that include parallel reprogramming, diagnostic routing, network management (NM), dynamic routing update, multiple routing configuration, and security. The proposed gateway framework was developed, and its performance was analyzed and evaluated.
