Abstract

Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) provides high performance deterministic communication using time scheduling. In theory, the rigor of a TSN schedule is the key to achieving deterministic communication; however, real devices are prone to errors. TSN-based applications require both fault-tolerance and end-to-end latency guarantee. This paper identifies the limitations of the TSN scheduling method, enhancing the simulation model NeSTiNg to enable fault-injection and integrating it to the schedule generator tool-chain TSNsched.
