Abstract
Systems and methods for multi-frame and frame streaming in a Controller Area Network (CAN) with Flexible Data-Rate (FD). In some embodiments, a method may include creating, by a device coupled to a CAN network configured to support a CAN Flexible Data-Rate (FD) protocol, a data frame comprising a field that indicates a multi-frame or streaming transmission, and transmitting the data frame in the multi-frame or streaming transmission. A CAN node may include message processing circuitry configured to receive a data frame comprising a Data Length Code (DLC) field configured to indicate multi-frame operation or streaming operation. The message processing circuitry may be further configured to receive another data frame in the absence of an arbitration process between the data frames.
