Ashwini S. Shinde, B. B. Godbole · 2023
Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol, originally designed for real-time, robust, and reliable communication within the automotive domain, has played pivotal role in the growth of autonomous vehicles and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Its unique attributes, such as high-speed data transmission, fault tolerance, and scalability, have made it the backbone of vehicle communication networks. This paper highlights the fundamental principles of CAN protocol working, highlighting its suitability for enabling vehicle automation. It explores the evolution of CAN-based automation from basic functionalities. Vehicle automation prototype implementation based on CAN bus is discussed.
