Automotive Ethernet

Automotive Ethernet, 2nd Edition, is a technical book published by Cambridge University Press in 2017 that examines the engineering and implementation of in-car network communication. The volume details both the technical and non-technical decisions that established Ethernet within vehicular electronics.

Coverage spans physical layer technologies, electromagnetic requirements, network architecture, and testing. The 2017 edition expanded technical depth with roughly twenty-five percent new material, including explanations of how 100BASE-T1 PHY and 1000BASE-T1 PHY systems operate.

Written by communications engineers Kirsten Matheus and Thomas Königseder, the text serves as a guide for engineers, technical managers, and researchers designing electronic components or evaluating technology deployment strategies.
