A CAN Application Profile for Control Optimization in Networked Embedded Systems

In recent years, approaches to control performance optimization for resource-constrained systems (e.g., networked embedded systems) have been receiving increased attention. Most of them focus on theory, whereas practical aspects are omitted. We present a controller area network (CAN) application profile that permits implementing networked embedded systems with control performance optimization quickly. First, the paper justifies the selection of the network, CAN. Afterwards, the specific application profile is presented. The paper ends showing simulation results, which validate the applicability of the presented profile
