Abstract (EN): Till nowadays, the Controller Area Network (CAN) has been a de facto standard for communication in automotive applications. To meet the requirements of new high-end vehicular systems, new communication protocols such as the FlexRay Communication System and the CAN with Flexible Data-rate (CAN-FD) has been developed. In the near future, it is expected the coexistence of those protocols in the same vehicle, with electronic control units (ECUs) connected to different network buses exchanging information through gateways. In this paper we investigate the following problem: "how to schedule the communication in a vehicular system, considering that a message is transmitted through a network that is composed of CAN-FD, FlexRay and CAN segments interconnected by gateways." We propose a method for the schedulability analysis of such systems, focusing on the case where a message is generated in a ECU connected to a CAN-FD segment is used by an ECU connected to a CAN bus.
