Mapping WirelessHART into PROFINET and PROFIBUS fieldbusses
Spiro Trikaliotis, Andre Gnad · 2009
WirelessHART is a new protocol for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). In most usage scenarious, such a WSN has to be integrated into existing wired infrastructures to build an automation process. Based on the examples PROFIBUS and PROFINET, this paper presents some design decisions needed for this integration and their advantages and disadvantages.
