Automotive Communication Protocol Market Trends

Time-sensitive networking is becoming a key solution for real-time communication over Ethernet networks. This technology ensures precise timing and synchronization for safety-critical applications while supporting high-bandwidth data transmission. Consequently, manufacturers are increasingly integrating TSN features into vehicle network designs.

Fr instance, In January 2023, Toshiba introduced the TC9562 and TC9563 Ethernet controllers, designed to support gPTP, IEEE 802.1Qav, IEEE 802.1Qbv, and other critical features for high-bandwidth applications. The TC9562 supports 1Gbps Ethernet, while the TC9563 offers enhanced networking with two ports, each supporting 10Gbps.

The industry is shifting towards service-oriented architectures (SOA) for vehicle networks, enabling more flexible and modular communication systems. This approach enhances resource utilization, simplifies updates, and improves scalability. Additionally, SOA supports the trend of software-defined vehicles and over-the-air updates.

The automotive industry faces challenges due to competing protocols like CAN, LIN, FlexRay, Ethernet, and MOST. This fragmentation complicates seamless communication between vehicle systems. Consequently, manufacturers must invest in interface solutions and protocol converters, increasing development costs and complexity. Additionally, they must maintain legacy systems while transitioning to newer standards.
