With the rapid development of 5G communication technology, 5G networks are designed to achieve three major objectives: higher bandwidth, support for a greater number of connected devices, and lower latency. It is necessary to meet the requirements of the three primary 5G application scenarios: Enhanced Mobile Broadband, Massive Machine-Type Communications, and Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications (uRLLC). To meet the stringent requirements for time synchronization and low latency, 5G is being integrated with Ethernet-based Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) technologies. TSN plays an important role in achieving time determinism in uRLLC scenarios and ensures lowlatency and high-reliability Ethernet communication through the transmission of time signals that are also known as the Precision Time Protocol. We applied TSN technology in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers 802.1Qbv standard and evaluated its transmission delay performance. Modifying the gate control list (GCL) to accommodate varying network traffic ensures low-latency transmission for high-priority traffic. We propose two GCL configurations for TSN that incorporate time-aware shaper to achieve efficient traffic scheduling.
