Abstract

Fieldbus standards are industrial networks that establish hardware interfaces and communication protocols. Central automation structures were used to undertake automation prior to these standards. Among others, it was required direct wiring to the stations of central automation which increased errors and faults. Networked Control Systems are one category of distributed control systems where controllers, sensors, and actuators are connected by communication networks. This organization type is advantageous because of its distribution and its independence from other computational systems. Therefore, it is fundamental to describe the main problems in the most used protocols for industrial networks.
