Objectives

The course provides the necessary background in the factors which are
essential to realize telecommunication in the industry. Emphasises is given
on the transfer of production, measuring and controlling information in the
automation process. Attention is also given to the influence of the
transmisionprocess on the controlling behaviour.
The most recent communication technologies are discussed in case studies.



Topics

The transfer of analog and digital information in the industry is realized
in function of economical and functional constraints. The signals on the
highest level are transmitted through communicationnetworks. The
construction of an industrial communication network is build on the
knowledge of the classical modulationtechniques, signaltransmission
technologies and the systemtheories of hierarchical informationsystems. The
stringent demands of real time processing and the specific content of the
datapackets demands specific network-technologies. Yhe first chapter gives
an introduction in analog, digital and pulse communications. The second
chapter deals with the physical telecommunication lines and modemtechnology.
The last chapter is devoted to the different industrial communication
networks : the plantnetwork, the fieldnetwork, the actuator and
sensornetwork.
