Time-Triggered Ethernet functionality is implemented based on the SAE AS6802 specification of the Layer 2 Quality-of-Service (QoS) enhancement for Ethernet networks. The library provides the capability for deterministic, synchronous, and congestion-free communication, unaffected by any asynchronous Ethernet traffic load. The block supports the isolation of the synchronous time-critical dataflows from other asynchronous Ethernet dataflows. This implementation of the standard enables designers to test, define the topology and validate their architecture for performance latency, throughput, jitters and other intrusions such as large, high priority packets, rate-controlled data streams and virtual LANs. This means that distributed applications with mixed time-criticality requirements (e.g., real-time command and control, audio, video, voice, data) can be integrated and coexist on one Ethernet network.
The TimeTrigeredEthernet or TTE contains the Traffic Generator, the Node, Bridge and Statistics blocks. In addition, the network is configured using a Config and a Network Setup library blocks.
