Communication network architecture e.g. controller area network bus architecture, for motor vehicle, has supervision device acquiring, processing and sending information to controller area networks

摘要

The architecture has a set of logic controllers (30) connected in a controller area network (CAN)(31), where each logic controller comprises functionality. Another set of logic controllers (34) e.g. actuators, is connected in a controller area network (CAN)or local interconnect network (LIN)(33), where each of logic controllers (34) comprises functionality. Bridge units connect the networks, and a supervision or node device (32) integrates the functionalities of the logic controllers (34), and acquires, processes and sends information to the networks. An independent claim is also included for a method for hybridizing and/or electrifying of a vehicle.
