Abnormality detection device, method thereof, and communication system
An abnormality detection device includes: a receiver, a reception predictor, frame information storage, and an abnormality determiner. The receiver receives a communication frame via a communication network. The frame information storage stores information regarding the communication frame. The reception predictor calculates and sets a predicted time range including a scheduled reception time of the communication frame of a target frame type from among a plurality of frame types received by the receiver by referencing the frame information storage and the reception time of the communication frame when the communication frame is received. The abnormality determiner determines the target communication frame is an abnormal frame when the target communication frame is received at a time outside the predicted reception range.
1. An abnormality detector comprising:
at least one processor;
a receiver configured to communicate with controllers;
a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed, perform the following abnormality detection process:
receive a first frame from a transmitting controller;
determine a first predicted time range for normally receiving a later frame, wherein the first predicted time range is from (T−α) to (T+β), wherein:
T is a normal time interval,
α is a difference between T and a minimum interval without collision, and
β is a difference between a maximum interval without collision and T,
wherein the first frame is semi-periodic with conditional reset, is a first type, and is from a first controller,
wherein a second frame of the first type is received before the first predicted time range,
wherein the abnormality detector is further configured to determine a reset predicted time range after receiving the second frame,
wherein the reset predicted time range is from (T−α) to (T+β), based on a received time of the second frame, and
wherein a third frame of the first type is determined to be abnormal if the third frame arrives outside of the reset predicted time range.
