Abstract

Disclosed is an OPC UA-based centralized user configuration method and system for a time-sensitive network. The system includes user terminal stations, a UA-TSN configuration management middleware and a centralized user configuration entity. The user terminal station includes a plurality of field devices and a UA-TSN coordinator; the UA-TSN configuration management middleware obtains an OPC UA address information list by accessing the UA-TSN coordinator; and the centralized user configuration entity extracts and analyzes TSN stream demand information aggregated in the UA-TSN configuration management middleware. According to the present disclosure, the automatic transmission and configuration of TSN network scheduling information are realized, and the operation complexity in the large-scale TSN network configuration process is reduced.
