VEHICLE NETWORK AND METHOD OF COMMUNICATING DATA PACKETS IN A VEHICLE NETWORK
摘要
A vehicle communication network (200) includes a plurality of network elements (202-212) and a plurality of communication links (214-230) communicatively coupling the network elements in a point-to-point configuration. At least a portion of the plurality of communication links are specified in accordance with a shared-access bus protocol. The plurality of communication links are arranged to communicate data packets between the network elements, and data packets are modified for transport via the plurality of communication links.
