This SAE Information Report is a summary comparison of existing protocols found in manufacturing, automotive, aviation, military, and computer applications which provide background or may be applicable for Class C application. The intent of this report is to present a summary of each protocol, not an evaluation. This is not intended to be a comprehensive review of all applicable protocols. The form for evaluation of a protocol exists in this paper and new protocols can be submitted on this form to the committee for consideration in future revisions of this report. This report contains a table which provides a side-by-side comparison of each protocol considered. The subsequent section provides a more detailed examination of the protocol attributes. Many of the protocols do not specify a method for one or more of the criteria. In these circumstances 'under defined' or 'not specified' will appear under the heading.

This SAE Information Report defines the functionality of typical Bluetooth applications used for remotely accessing in-vehicle automotive installations of electronic devices. Remote access may be achieved directly with on-board Bluetooth modules, or indirectly via a custom designed gateway that communicates with Bluetooth and non-Bluetooth modules alike. Access to the vehicle, in the form of two-way communications, may be made via a single master port, or via multiple ports on the vehicle. The Bluetooth technology may also be used in conjunction with other types of off-board wireless technology. This report recommends using a message strategy that is already defined in one or more of the documents listed in 2.1.1, 2.1.4, 2.1.5, and 2.1.6. Those strategies may be used for some of the typical remote communications with a vehicle. It is recognized, however, that there may be specific applications requiring a unique message strategy or structure.

SAE has many vehicle network "J" documents to analyze and select from. Many vehicle network architectures have an overlap of characteristics that can apply to several networks.

This document covers the general terms and corresponding definitions that support the design, development, implementation, testing, and application of vehicle networks. The terminology also covers some terms and concepts of distributed embedded systems, network hardware, network software, physical layers, protocols, and other related areas.

This SAE Information Report provides definition for terms (words and phrases) which are generally used within the SAE in describing network and data communication issues. In many cases, these definitions are different from those of the same or similar terms found in nonautomotive organizations, such as the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). The Vehicle Networks for Multiplexing and Data Communications committee has found it useful to collect these specific terms and definitions into this document so documents related to the multiplexing and data communications issues will not need an extensive definitions section. This document is intended to be the central reference for terms and definitions related to multiplexing and data communications and as such is intended to apply equally to Passenger Car, Truck and Bus, and Construction and Agriculture organizations within SAE.

The scope of this specification is to define the transfer layer and the consequences of the Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol on the surrounding layers.

This Glossary confines its content to the specific field of electronic systems and subsystems as they pertain to the automotive engineer.

The Token Slot Data Link is intended to provide periodic, broadcast communications (communication that must occur on a regular, predetermined basis) within a vehicle system. The Token Slot protocol achieves this by implementing a masterless, deterministic, non-contention Token Slot sequence which is designed to offer a transmit token to all devices (or nodes) without requiring that they respond. After acquiring the token, messages may be sent and verified using a variety of built-in techniques. The token passing slot sequence is then reinitiated by the current token holder.

This SAE Recommended Practice will focus on the requirements of Class C applications. The requirements for these applications are different from those required for either Class A or Class B applications. An overall example is provided for consistency of discussion. Cancelled due to lack of interest.

The Class A Task Force of the Vehicle Network for Multiplex and Data Communications Committee is publishing this SAE Information Report to provide insight into Class A Multiplexing. Multiplexed actuators are generally defined as devices which accept information from the multiplexed bus. A multiplexed actuator can be an output device controlled by the operator or an intelligent controller. A Multiplex actuator can also be a display device that reports the status of a monitored vehicle function. This document is intended to help the network system engineers and is meant to stimulate the design thought process. A list of multiplexed actuator examples is provided in Appendix A, Figure A1. Many other examples can be it identified.
