N2 - This paper proposes the design of a fault-tolerant controller area network (CAN). Several candidate redundancy strategies are introduced to improve the reliability. To choose a suitable one wisely, it is meaningful to make comparison on the reliability between the candidates. However, as there are redundant channels, the reliability of the network depends on the transmission requirements, which is difficult to evaluate. In this paper, a general approach based on minimal path set is proposed to model the reliability of complex fault-tolerant systems. With the proposed approach, the transmission-aware reliability of the redundant CAN network is evaluated. Comparisons on the reliability are carried out between the candidate strategies. In addition, comparisons on the cost, complexity and latency are also carried out. The results show the channel redundancy is superior to other strategies due to its high reliability, low latency and acceptable cost.
