Abstract
A sensor bridge, for use in an Ethernet network in a vehicle, includes a sensor interface, a mapper and a communication processor. The sensor interface is configured to receive sensor data from a sensor installed in the vehicle. The mapper is configured to form mapped sensor data by applying to the sensor data a direct mapping that maps specified parts of the sensor data to corresponding bit positions in one or more Ethernet packets. The communication processor is configured to generate the one or more Ethernet packets including the mapped sensor data, and to transmit the one or more Ethernet packets over the Ethernet network.
