工业以太网技术的介绍和比较

近二十多年由于通信技术、计算机技术、网络技术的迅速发展,工业自动化控制领域也随之得到了迅速的提高和改革。自动化工程师不仅将这种新技术大胆地运用到工业实践,而且对如何将现代通信技术成功地应用到工业自动化控制问题进行了激烈的争论。事实证明现代自动控制的发展是与现代通信技术的发展紧密相关的。无论是现场总线还是工业以太网都对工业控制系统的分散化、数字化、智能化和一体化起了决定性的作用。因此学术上的争论将对我们如何看待工业以太网技术的迅猛发展有很大启示。本文对不同的工业以太网的技术作了简单的介绍,并作相应的比较,从而明确未来工业以太网技术的发展方向。

Introduction and Comparison of the Different Industrial Ethernet Technology

Due to more than 20 years rapid development of IT communication and computer-technology, the industrial automation control system has obtained very quickly enhancement. Lots of engineers have not only used this technology in the praxis, but also discussed very intensively: how to successful integration of modern communication to the industrial automation. The fact is regrardless of the fieldbus or the industry Ethernet, modern communication is the decisive function to influence the development direction of industry control system.The paper made the simple introduction and comparison of the different industrial Ethernet technology. This will be clear about the future of industry ethernet technology.
