Abstract—The gateway impact on the end to end system performances is a major challenge in the design process of heterogeneous embedded systems. In this paper, this problem is tackled for a specific avionics network AFDX with CAN to identify the main interconnection issues. The results herein show the possible enhancements of the system performances thanks to an optimized gateway based on a frames pooling strategy, compared to a basic gateway.
