The document discusses the FlexRay automotive communication protocol. FlexRay allows for high data transfer rates of up to 10MBit/s, includes redundancy features to be fault tolerant, and can trigger events and transmit data and time signals. It examines the system architecture, communication controller module, and communication cycle. FlexRay is concluded to be the next generation communication protocol due to its high data rate, fault tolerance, redundancy, and areas of ongoing research to improve its functionality.

High Data Rate , Fault tolerant , redundant
plus several on going research to improve its
overall functionality ,makes us to conclude
that FlexRay will be the Next generation
communication protocol.
