Description
A successful CAN bus for telecom payload needs to fulfill precisely the extreme satcom requirements: high reliability of electronic components, high availability of the system solution achieved by minor modifications of the system architecture. Considering all those constraints, physical layer, redundancy management and protocol have been tailored to define a robust, efficient and cheap CAN payload data bus. This paper presents the on-going activities lead by Astrium and Tesat to implement the CAN bus as payload data bus on Eurostar E3000 platform.
