Abstract

Significant developments are made in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and in avionics, where messages sent in the network with critical Time play a vital role. Several studies in Time-Triggered Ethernet have been carried out, but these studies. Still, these improving QoS such as latency in end-to-end delays of an internally synchronized TTE network. However, no one monitors integrated modular avionics. We proposed a framework that enables TTE to be externally synchronized from a GNSS to overcome this problem. We have incorporated our proposed Algorithm in the TTE protocol based on specific parameters and multiple existing algorithms. The proposed Algorithm gives us the ability to control and synchronize the TTE network. Also, we have a developed scenario for analyzing the performance of externally synchronized end-to-end latency of TT messages in a TTE network. We simulated scenarios in our framework and analyzed QoS but, more specifically, the latency that affects the performance of time-triggered messages in externally synchronized TTE networks. The result shows that our proposed framework outperforms existing approaches.
