Today’s software-defined vehicles (SDVs) enable automakers to offer unprecedented levels of service, personalization, and convenience. But the hundreds of electronic components that populate these vehicles demand new approaches to vehicle networking and connectivity.
Established communications technologies such as Ethernet, Controller Area Network (CAN), and Local Interconnect Network (LIN) will continue to find use in connecting electronic control units (ECUs) to sensors and actuators within modern vehicles. For example, ultra-low-latency Ethernet devices can enable high-bandwidth communications.
