As the need to remotely monitor and manage large numbers of connected assets increases,interest is booming in 5G, the latest cellular technology in the LTE (Long-Term Evolution) family of telecommunication standards。与以前的蜂窝和无线网络(如Wi-Fi,Bluetooth和ZigBee)不同,5G提供高数据传输速率,低延迟,以及连接到许多设备的能力。因此,它非常适用于需要可靠性,实时通信和大规模覆盖的关键任务工业应用。常用案例包括遥控车辆的部署,大型环境中的资产实时跟踪,以及通过可穿戴设备与现场工人的多媒体通信。

While these benefits can be attained from public 5G, many in industry are opting to establish their own private 5G networks instead. One reason for this is that a dedicated 5G network tailored specifically to end users' operational needs can provide better coverage and more reliable performance, since it does not require its bandwidth be shared with others. Another reason is that using private 5G enables companies to maintain internal control of their confidential data, thereby increasing cybersecurity protections.

展示私人5G的偏好,最近的大众汽车诺基亚在德国沃尔夫斯堡的汽车制造商的主要工厂部署私人5G网络。该网络为Wolfsburg设施的生产开发中心和试点大厅提供了覆盖范围。根据诺基亚,大众汽车将使用安装来测试5G技术是否能够满足其车辆生产过程的严格要求。

“Predictable wireless performance and the real-time capabilities of 5G have great potential for smart factories in the not-so-distant future," said Klaus-Dieter Tuchs, a network planning consultant at Volkswagen. "With this pilot deployment, we are exploring the possibilities 5G has to offer and are building our expertise in operating and using 5G technology in an industrial context."

The deployment also uses Nokia's Digital Automation Cloud platform, which combines 4G or 5G connectivity with edge computing capabilities and a library of plug-and-play applications. The Digital Automation Cloud also includes radio access points for establishing wireless local area connections, various spectrum options including unlicensed, shared, and licensed, and a web-based management portal.
