MOST Cooperation - automotive Ethernet
Automotive-ready physical layer for Ethernet in the car
The MOST Cooperation will demonstrate how MOST can be used as an
automotive Ethernet physical layer at the MOST Forum exhibition in
Stuttgart, Germany. The multimedia demonstration shows MOST at 150 Mbps
bandwidth with high-speed Ethernet packet transport, multi-channel
video streaming from HDD as well as isochronous streaming of HDTV and
SDTV. The MOST based transport of Ethernet data traffic will be
demonstrated at the booth on September 30, 2008, at the Liederhalle
Cultural & Congress Center.
In addition to higher bandwidth, MOST150 features an isochronous
transport mechanism to support extensive video applications, as well as
an Ethernet channel for efficient seamless transport of IP-based packet
data. The Ethernet channel can transport unmodified Ethernet frames as
specified by IEEE 802.3. This enables software stacks and applications
from the consumer and IT domain, where the speed of innovation is much
faster, to be seamlessly migrated into the car. TCP/IP stacks or
protocols that use TCP/IP can communicate via MOST without
modification. Thus, the new generation of MOST provides an
automotive-ready physical layer for Ethernet in the car. MOST
Specification Rev. 3.0 supports both conventional 16 bit addressing as
well as 48 bit addressing using IEEE MAC addresses.
