摘要: 时间敏感网络(Time-Sensitive Networking,TSN)是实时传输的关键技术,通过流量调度和整形机制为计划流量提供低延迟和确定性传输保障。然而,在自动驾驶和航空控制等实际传输场景中,紧急突发流量的存在对现有的调度和整形机制提出了新的挑战。传统的时间感知整形器(Time-Aware Shaper,TAS)由于为调度流量严格规划时间窗口,难以在保证调度流量传输性能的同时有效处理这些紧急突发流量。针对该问题,提出一种新型动态窗口扩展机制E-DWE。通过调整队列分配规则与在线扩展调度窗口,实现对紧急突发流的优先调度,缓解其与调度流量之间的传输冲突。在多种典型拓扑与复杂负载条件下的仿真实验表明,E-DWE不仅能够最小化突发流对调度流的干扰,还在保障紧急突发流低延迟传输的同时,使调度流的级联延迟平均降低45%左右。此外,E-DWE在高并发紧急流场景下表现出良好的调度鲁棒性,能够容纳更多的紧急突发流量,展现出较强的工程适用性与调度灵活性。

Abstract: Time-sensitive networking(TSN) is a key technology for real-time transmission,which provides low-latency and deterministic transmission guarantees for scheduled traffic through traffic scheduling and shaping mechanisms.However,in actual transmission scenarios such as autonomous driving and aviation control,the existence of emergency burst traffic poses new challenges to existing scheduling and shaping mechanisms.Traditional time-aware shapers(TAS) strictly plan time windows for scheduled traffic,making it difficult to effectively handlesuch emergency burst traffic while ensuring the transmission perfor-mance of scheduled traffic.To address this problem,this paper proposes a new dynamic window extension mechanism called E-DWE.By adjusting the queue allocation rules and expanding the scheduling window online,priority scheduling of emergency burst traffic is achieved,alleviating the transmission conflict between them and scheduled traffic.Simulation experiments under a variety of typical topologies and complex load conditions show that E-DWE can not only minimize the interference of emergency burst traffic on scheduled traffic,but also reduce the cascade delay of scheduled traffic by an average of about 45% while ensuring low-latency transmission of emergency burst traffic.In addition,E-DWE exhibits good scheduling robustness in high-concurrency emergency burst traffic scenarios,can accommodate more emergency burst traffic,and demonstrates strong engineering applicabi-lity and scheduling flexibility.
