Summary:

This paper presents an examination of the impact of vehicle boundary conditions on future multiplexed vehicle signal and energy distribution systems. Boundary conditions ore discussed including requirements for: l)circuit protection 2) function isolation 3) option flexibility 4) distributed input and load hardware 5) reliability 6) redundancy 7) cost effectiveness 8) diagnosability 9) assembleability and, 10) B+ and ground distributionBased on these boundary conditions, an evaluation is made of both electrical and optical multiplex systems. Different configurations are examined such as: 1) centralized load control, 2) distributed load control, 3) single ring, and 4) multiple ring. Parameters which relate to wiring system cost, complexity, and reliability are considered
