Automotive industry is in continuous evolution. Luxury as well as comfort is important. Safety measures are the most important in designing a moving vehicle. Safety can be studied from a mechanical point of view as well as from an electrical point of view. This paper presents a simulation study for fault-tolerant sensor networks for cars' on-board control. On-board communication and control networks are built using Gigabit Ethernet. OPNET simulations showed feasibility and success of the proposed model with mixed traffic for real-time and non-real-time applications.
