In order to facilitate research on the performance of Networked Control System, overcome the defects of unable to reflect the system performance, based on the CAN bus a kind of NCS experimental platform is designed. The system is composed of a main node and several slave nodes and Dc motor as the actuator. The master node is designed with ARM + U-boot + Linux structure, connecting with PC via Ethernet. For this experiment platform, using c + + Builder a scheduling algorithm performance testing software is developed, to further research on the effects of different scheduling algorithm on the NCS performance.
