“…In [26], [27], [28] and [29] are showed some performance evaluations in different network scenarios, and for networks using 100MB/s LAN speeds an average delay of 0.1ms can be considered for D1. For the WH network, [30] shows that for scenarios with two hops until the message final destination, the minimum average delay can be 1297 ms for D. Simulating the communication between the Gateways, the Hart Command 3 was sent to the WH Gateway via UDP messages. This command read the dynamic variables from the WH sensor.…”

Power substations have received significant improvements in automation systems through the implementation of IEC 61850 standard. Interoperability between multi-vendor devices and costs reduction by cabling suppression where brought as main advantages. Though, there is yet a gap in the usage of wireless communication systems, which are not covered by the current standard. A wireless solution could further reduce the cabling and installation costs and provide portability. In order to attend the requirements of reliability and security intrinsic to power substations systems, a solution is proposed by integrating industrial wireless communication technologies within the IEC 61850 standard.

“…3) Network Routing: On the network layer, the routing protocol plays an extremely important role in achieving high reliability and real-time forwarding together with energy efficiency for large scale WNCS, such as large-scale aircraft avionics and industrial automation. Various routing protocols are proposed to achieve energy efficiency for traditional WSN applications [136], [137]. However, to deal with much harsher and noisier environments, the routing protocol must additionally provide reliable real-time transmissions [28].…”

Abstract-Wireless networked control systems (WNCS) are composed of spatially distributed sensors, actuators, and controllers communicating through wireless networks instead of conventional point-to-point wired connections. Due to their main benefits in the reduction of deployment and maintenance costs, large flexibility and possible enhancement of safety, WNCS are becoming a fundamental infrastructure technology for critical control systems in automotive electrical systems, avionics control systems, building management systems, and industrial automation systems. The main challenge in WNCS is to jointly design the communication and control systems considering their tight interaction to improve the control performance and the network lifetime. In this survey, we make an exhaustive review of the literature on wireless network design and optimization for WNCS. First, we discuss what we call the critical interactive variables including sampling period, message delay, message dropout, and network energy consumption. The mutual effects of these communication and control variables motivate their joint tuning. We discuss the effect of controllable wireless network parameters at all layers of the communication protocols on the probability distribution of these interactive variables. We also review the current wireless network standardization for WNCS and their corresponding methodology for adapting the network parameters. Moreover, we discuss the analysis and design of control systems taking into account the effect of the interactive variables on the control system performance. Finally, we present the state-of-the-art wireless network design and optimization for WNCS, while highlighting the tradeoff between the achievable performance and complexity of various approaches. We conclude the survey by highlighting major research issues and identifying future research directions.

“…Numerous researchers carried out various analyses of protocol development, performance, interoperability, and simulation investigations for process control during the WirelessHART establishment period to understand its effectiveness [ 51 , 52 , 53 ]. The initial attempt to use WirelessHART for control-oriented processes started with the development of TrueTime, a Matlab/Simulink-based wireless simulation toolbox specifically designed to support WirelessHART [ 54 ].…”

Industrialization has led to a huge demand for a network control system to monitor and control multi-loop processes with high effectiveness. Due to these advancements, new industrial wireless sensor network (IWSN) standards such as ZigBee, WirelessHART, ISA 100.11a wireless, and Wireless network for Industrial Automation-Process Automation (WIA-PA) have begun to emerge based on their wired conventional structure with additional developments. This advancement improved flexibility, scalability, needed fewer cables, reduced the network installation and commissioning time, increased productivity, and reduced maintenance costs compared to wired networks. On the other hand, using IWSNs for process control comes with the critical challenge of handling stochastic network delays, packet drop, and external noises which are capable of degrading the controller performance. Thus, this paper presents a detailed study focusing only on the adoption of WirelessHART in simulations and real-time applications for industrial process monitoring and control with its crucial challenges and design requirements.
