FlexRay was introduced to provide a communication system targeting specifically the needs of the
high-speed control applications in the vehicle domain.
FlexRay Communication : -
The exchange of information between nodes in a FlexRay cluster is based on a time division multiple
access (TDMA) scheme and organized in communication cycles, which are periodically executed from
the startup of the network until its shutdown.
One communication cycle is subdivided into time slots, in which the information transfer from one
sender to one or more receivers takes place.
The schedule of a FlexRay cluster determines in which time slots the FlexRay nodes are allowed to
send their so-called frames.
Frame Format
FlexRay frame consists of three segments: the header, the payload, and the trailer.
