Abstract
A fault tolerant consensus generation and communication system and method is described. Each processing node in the system receives a plurality of measurements from a sensor, calculates a consolidated value for the received plurality of measurements, transmits the consolidated value to other processing nodes, receives consolidated values from the other processing nodes, calculates a consensus value based on the calculated consolidated value and the received one or more consolidated values, transmits the calculated consensus value to the other processing nodes, receives consensus values from the other processing nodes, generates a consensus message based on the calculated consensus value, the received one or more consensus values, and a predefined criterion, and, in a case where the consensus message is not present in a consensus queue, adds the consensus message to the consensus queue.
