  3. Factory Automation Subgroup • Michael Bahr (Siemens AG) • Rudy Belliardi (Schneider Electric) • Paul Dixon (HiSilicon Technologies Co., LTD.) • Jose Gutierrez (Emerson ) • Ryoji Ono (Mitsubishi Electric) • Zafer Sahinoglu (Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs) • Rene Struik (Certicom) • Ludwig Winkel (Siemens AG) Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  4. Requirements usage in factory automation possible high determinism / low latency: transmission of sensor data in  10 ms for 15 devices roaming coexistence with IEEE 802.11 scalability in number of sensors sensors per gateway might be more than 100 sensors per gateway trade-off with latency Assumptions assume controlled envi-ronment (factory floor) configuration for optimal performance network management and frequency planning for avoidance of co-existence issues Proposal for Factory AutomationGoals Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  5. star topology gateway devices sensors:unidirectional data exchange from devices to gateway actuators: bidirectional data exchange between devices and gateway management devices (temporary) Proposal for Factory AutomationMain Ideas: Network Topology Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  6. Proposal for Factory AutomationMain Ideas: General Concept • IEEE 802.15.4 PHY frames • Time Division Multiple Access • superframe with timeslots of fixed (base) length (can be brief) • shared group timeslots with CSMA • flexible configuration of superframe structure • addressing based on timeslot location or short address • modified MAC frame with very short header (1 octet) • new frame type for differentiation • reduces overhead  reduced latency • Roaming capability Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  7. TDMA Superframe • Superframe • starts with beacon • followed by n base timeslots of equal, fixed length • Timeslots • one device per timeslot (dedicated timeslot) • multiple devices per timeslot (shared group timeslot) • determinism • (re-)synchronization through beacon • allows sleep mode / power save of devices Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  8. Shared Group Timeslots • more than one device per timeslot • (simplified) carrier sense multiple access within shared group timeslot • guaranteed access for designated device, contention-based access for other devices • 1 or more continuous timeslots concatenated to a shared group timeslot • all timeslots in single shared group timeslot  network with CSMA • mixture between fixed, deterministic timeslots and shared group timeslots possible • further details in 15-08/0827r0 Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  9. Structure of Superframe • existence of management timeslots configurable during setup • number of (timeslots for) sensors and actuators configurable during setup • first sensor time slots may be reserved for dynamic retransmissions • time slot for GACK configurable Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  10. Very Short MAC Frame Format • implicit addressing through slot number • omits MAC address fields in MAC header • very short MAC header of 1 byte • very short PSDU increases efficiency dramatically • turnaround time / latency main criteria • FCS for error recognition Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  11. Frame Type corresponds to frame type subfield of IEEE 802.15.4-2006 set to b100 indicates frames with shortened MAC header Shortened Frame Control • Sub Frame Type • indicates frame type with shortened MAC header • beacon, command, ack, data frame Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  12. Transmission Modes • 3 transmission modes, signalled in beacon • Discovery • Configuration • Online • Discovery: network setup, addition of new devices • Configuration: (re-)configuration of network and devices • further details see 15-08/0571r1 Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  13. Changes to Standard Section 5 • 5 General Description • 5.3 Network Topologies • added network concept for factory automation • 5.5. Functional Overview • 5.5.1 Superframe structure • added description of superframe structure for factory automation networks • new behavior defined when using frames with 1-octet MAC header • 5.5.2 Data transfer model • 5.5.3 Frame structure Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  14. Changes to Standard Section 7 • 7.1 MAC sublayer service specification • MCPS.DATA • existing MLME primitives to be reviewed • new MLME-SFCF-SUPERFRAME-CONFIGURATION primitives • 7.2 MAC frame formats • new frame type b100 • contains four subtypes: data, ack, beacon, command • defined general frame format (7.2.1a) and individiual frame formats (7.2.2a) • different types of acknowledgement (e.g. group ack (GACK)) • 7.3 MAC command frames • new command frames defined • Discover Response • Configuration Response • Configuration Request • CTS Shared Group • Request to send (RTS) • Clear to Send (CTS) Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  15. Changes to Standard Section 7 • 7.4 MAC constants and PIB attributes • new MAC constants defined • macFAnumTimeSlots • macFAnumSensorTS • macFAnumRetransmitTS • macFAnumActuatorTS • macFAmgmtTS • probably missed some Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  16. Changes to Standard Section 7 • 7.5 MAC functional description • 7.5.1 Channel access • new clause „Superframe structure with beacons with shortened frame control” • superframe definition • timeslot description • channel access in dedicated and shared group timeslots • 7.5.1.4 CSMA-CA algorithm • extension with simplified scheme for shared group timeslots (tbd) • 7.5.7a Transmission modes in factory automation networks • new clause describing discover, configuration, and online modes • 7.5.2 Starting and maintaining PANs • 7.5.3 Association and disassociation • 7.5.4 Synchronization • 7.5.5 Transaction handling • 7.5.6 Transmission, reception, and acknowledgement • need to be reviewed and extended if necessary • 7.7 Message sequence charts • to be done Michael Bahr, Siemens AG

  17. Changes to Standard Annex • Annex D PICS proforma • to be done at the end • Annex Fa (informative) • motivation and lyrical explanation for factory automation networks Michael Bahr, Siemens AG
