Performance Research on Cascade Topology of Deterministic Ethernet Based on Network Calculus

The thesis adopts the theoretical tool of network calculus theory to conduct the performance research on the cascade topology of deterministic Ethernet. Based on the simple star topology, the thesis proposes the cascade topology which is the extension of the simple star topology. The thesis conducts the in-depth study of the network calculus theory and deterministic Ethernet. Firstly, we adopt the deconvolution theory to establish the network calculus model of the cascade topology. Secondly, we establish the simulation model. Lastly, we compare the simulation results with the theory results to analyze the determinacy and real-time of deterministic Ethernet. The conclusion shows that the cascade topology has a good performance.
