Improved Network-Calculus Nodal Delay-Bounds in Time-Sensitive Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Eleni Stai, Ehsan Mohammadpour

In time-sensitive networks, bounds on worst-case delays are typically obtained by using network calculus and assuming that flows are constrained by bit-level arrival curves. However, in IEEE TSN or IETF DetNet, source flows are constrained on the number of ...

Worst-Case Delay Analysis of Time-Sensitive Networks with Network Calculus

Seyed Mohammadhossein Tabatabaee

Time-sensitive networks, as in the context of IEEE Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) and IETF Deterministic Networking (DetNet), offer deterministic services with guaranteed bounded latency in order to support safety-critical applications. In this thesis, we ...

Efficient and Accurate Handling of Periodic Flows in Time-Sensitive Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Seyed Mohammadhossein Tabatabaee

Total Flow Analysis (TFA) is a method for the worst-case analysis of time-sensitive networks. It uses service curve characterizations of the network nodes and arrival curves of flows at their sources; for tractability, the latter are often taken to be line ...

Control upgrade for the TCV coils power supplies

Damien Fasel, Ugo Siravo, Jérémie Dubray, Nicolas Cherix

The Tokamak a` Configuration Variable (TCV) coil converters are fed, during the plasma pulse, by a flywheel generator (FG) providing the AC voltages few seconds before the plasma pulse. The synchronization with the 120 Hz frequency delivered by the FG, var ...

A Network Calculus Analysis of Asynchronous Mechanisms in Time-Sensitive Networks

Ehsan Mohammadpour

Time-sensitive networks provide worst-case guarantees for applications in domains such as the automobile, automation, avionics, and the space industries. A violation of these guarantees can cause considerable financial loss and serious damage to human live ...

Analysis of Dampers in Time-Sensitive Networks With Non-Ideal Clocks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ehsan Mohammadpour

Dampers are devices that reduce delay jitter in the context of time-sensitive networks, by delaying packets for the amount written in packet headers. Jitter reduction is required by some real-time applications; beyond this, dampers have the potential to so ...

Security Measures for Grids Against Rank-1 Undetectable Time-Synchronization Attacks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt

Time-synchronization attacks on phasor measurement units (PMUs) pose a real threat to smart grids; it was shown that they are feasible in practice and that they can have a nonnegligible negative impact on state estimation, without triggering the bad data d ...

Time-Synchronization Attack Detection in Unbalanced Three-Phase Systems

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt, Gyorgy Miklos Dan

Phasor measurement units (PMU) rely on an accurate time-synchronization to phase-align the phasors and timestamp the voltage and current phasor measurements. Among the symmetrical components computed from the phasors in three-phase systems, the standard pr ...

TDOA Source-Localization Technique Robust to Time-Synchronization Attacks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt

In this paper, we focus on the localization of a passive source from time difference of arrival (TDOA) measurements. TDOA values are computed with respect to pairs of fixed sensors that are required to be accurately time-synchronized. This constitutes a we ...

Time-Synchronization Attacks against Critical Infrastructures and their Mitigation

Marguerite Marie Nathalie Delcourt

This work focuses on the security of critical infrastructures against time-synchronization attacks (TSA). A TSA can impact any network that relies on the dynamic analysis of data, by altering the time synchronization between its nodes. Such attacked networ ...
