Industrial applications
Task Application examples Communication requirements
Metering Electric power, gas, and water metering; Environmental sensing
Massive number of devices with small data bursts, high coverage, nomadic/fixed
Monitoring, tracking Condition monitoring, fleet management, logistics
Mobile sensors, possibly large amount of data per sensor
Telecontrol Waterworks, electric grid, large process plants
Small number of devices, reliable communications
Wireless automation Industrial automation, process control
High reliability, low / ultra low latency
Safety critical control Industrial automation, telecontrol of vehicles
Ultra High reliability, ultra low latency
Condition monitoring requirements
• Large machines such as cranes – Measurement interval 10 – 30 ms – Large number of measurement points: 500 – 1000 – Periodic and event based – Typically delay tolerant, but in case of faults alarming needs to be transmitted
fast
Wireless automation requirements IEC 62657-1
• Process automation – Time constants 100 ms – minutes – Data rate 100 kbit/s (few bytes per packet) – Periodic & event based data
• Factory automation 1 s – 1min cycles – I/O interval few ms (few bytes per packet) – Low jitter (few microseconds timing accuracy) – High device density ~0,022 devices /m2
– Periodic & event based data
Wireless in Industry today
• Most of wireless systems operate on crowded ISM bands – Co-existence problems, requires frequency planning – Reliability: Difficult to guarantee QoS due to interference – Latency is too high for factory automation – Short range – Multiple incompatible standards such as WirelessHART, ISA SP100,
WIA-PA and proprietary solutions WISA,… – Difficult to share among multiple organizations
• Services are sold instead of machinery
• Cellular solutions today – Telecontrol and monitoring – Global SIM expensive – Managing SIM cards expensive – Latency and reliability not sufficient for wireless automation

5G benefits
• LTE and 5G based solutions offer – low power consumption
• LTE-M
– economy of scale • Massive MTC • Cheap infrastructure (LTE core and eNodeB can run in a PC)
– reliability and low latency • Ultra reliable communications / Mission critical MTC • Reliable device-to-device communications • Edge cloud / fog computing
– Range & mobility • From femto to macrocells • From sensor networks to cross plant networks and PMRS • Seamless mobility (e.g. nomadic production cells)
– infrastructure sharing • Authentication • Accounting and billing information • QoS classes • Network virtualization (slicing)
5G benefits
• Deployment flexibility • Network Function Virtualization
/ Software defined networking
• C-RAN / Software defined radio
– Anything as a service
– Resource scaling
– Service specific network configurations
Cellular system can be run on a regular PC

5G challenges
• Physical SIM cards do not scale for massive MTC – SoftSIM
• Cost per bit in global roaming – Condition monitoring requires large volumes of data
to be transmitted from anywhere in the globe
• Where to get spectrum? – Affordable ”Professional Mobile Radio” type 5G for
industrial use
– Local licensed access to spectrum with globally harmonized simple licensing process
Co-primary spectrum sharing could be an alternative for operator controlled
mobile systems
