Accuracy Improvement of Master–Slave Synchronization in EtherCAT Networks
In the study, we develop a method to improve the accuracy of master-slave synchronization in EtherCAT networks. The method involves two key compensations that are not considered in the EtherCAT protocol. First, the propagation delay between the master and reference slave is measured, and the system...
