To face the requirements of current and future industry and to push the digitalization of factories, an international consortium in the project 5G-SMART develops a versatile multi-sensor platform communicating via 5G. To achieve an adaptable and flexible system, the embedded device is designed in a modular approach, consisting of a local processing core, integrable field sensors and a 5G modem. This paper covers the concept and design of the elaborated versatile multi-sensor platform and therewith presents a system that overcomes the limitations of current sensor systems and enables an interconnected real-time monitoring for production industry.
Erstmalig erhält eine Mobilfunktechnologie Einzug in die Industrie: Mit hoher Übertragungsbandbreite und geringer Latenz erfüllt 5G die Anforderungen industrieller Netzwerke und ebnet den Weg für neue Geschäftsmodelle zur Steigerung der betrieblichen Effizienz. Durch kabellose, modulare Sensorkonzepte können innovative Anwendungsszenarien realisiert und der stetig wachsende Bedarf der Industrie nach immer flexibleren Produktionsanlagen gedeckt werden.
