5G for Closed-Loop Manufacturing

Challenge and Motivation

• 5G promises for enabling real-time process control
• 5G performances (latency, reliability, etc.) in real production scenarios have not yet been proven
• Closing the loop with 5G involves expertise from multiple domains

Objective

• Realization of a representative architecture for a 5G closed-loop system
• Evaluation of the performance results of 5G in a closed-loop system

Procedure

• Development of a closed-loop 5G architecture
• Implementation on the shopfloor
• Performance Measurements and Validation
