5G-DIVE

The 5G-DIVE Elastic Edge Platform (DEEP) showcased with a Digital Twin application

The objective is to validate the operation of a real-time digital twin implementation of a robot arm over 5G and compare it to its operation over 4G, making use of edge computing provided by the 5G-DIVE Elastic Edge Platform (DEEP). Results clearly show how the operation over 5G achieves a higher degree of smoothness and precision. The Digital Twin use case demonstrates 5G performance of interconnecting a real robot to its digital twin, which implies sharing the computing resources and the software with the real robot and will virtually replicate the same function. Digital twins are digital replicas of physical assets, processes, and systems that also interact with the real system – with the digital replica reproducing changes as they occur in the actual physical system. The concept has been around for some time now, but it has found a limited application until recently, due to storage costs, processing power, and bandwidth performances. Said model can be used to highlight critical conditions inferred by sensors data and to provide alarms and preventive maintenance information to humans. In case those critical or dangerous situations are detected, the remote control could stop in real time the operations for safety reasons. Safety requires a very reliable and fast track for transmission of data and, among wireless technologies, only 5G can satisfy these tight requirements. The robot arm will be controlled in real time, by a remote virtual controller located on a powerful dedicated computer or a virtual machine, to exploit the computational power provided by the edge and fog resources managed by the 5G-DIVE Elastic Edge Platform (DEEP). The robot arm will receive instructions about its position in a stepwise manner by the remote controller, while sensor data will be sent back to provide real-time feedback. Both control instructions and information from sensors will be used to update the virtual model in real-time. Through a Joystick, the virtual operator is able to grab an object with the robot arm, relying only on the virtual replica of it (Digital Twin). This operation is performed through 5G and 4G to evaluate the improvement achieved with the former technology.

5G!Drones

5G!Drones

5G!Drones aim is to trial several UAV use-cases covering eMBB, URLLC, and mMTC 5G services, and to validate 5G KPIs for supporting such challenging use-cases. The project will drive the UAV verticals and 5G networks to a win-win position, on one hand by showing that 5G is able to guarantee UAV vertical KPIs, and on the other hand by demonstrating that 5G can support challenging use-cases that put pressure on network resources, such as low-latency and reliable communication, massive number of connections and high bandwidth requirements, simultaneously. 5G!DRONES will build on top of the 5G facilities provided by the ICT-17 projects and a number of support sites, while identifying and developing the missing components to trial UAV use-cases. The overall and ultimate objective of 5G!Drones is to design, implement and run  trials of UAV use cases on top of a 5G infrastructure provided by ICT-17 and other complementary facilities, addressing contemporary 5G challenges.The objectives related to the 5G!Drones concept and validation are:

  • Analysis of the performance requirements of UAV verticals’ applications and business models in 5G
  • Design and implementation of the 5G!Drones software layer (or system) to execute UAV trials
  • Design a high-level scenario descriptor language to run and analyse the results of the UAV trials
  • Design and implementation of 5G!Drones enablers for UAV trials and operations
  • Validate 5G KPIs that demonstrate execution of UAV use cases
  • Validate UAV KPIs using 5G
  • Advanced data analytics tools to visualise and deeply analyse the trial results, and provide feedback to the 5G and UAV ecosystem
  • Dissemination, standardisation and exploitation of 5G!Drones

5G!Drones derives from the need to support and validate UAV use cases, by running trials on top of 5G systems, leveraging ICT-17 5G facilities and modern test methodologies and advancements. Indeed, for actual experimentation of UAV use cases, highly-complex setups are required in order to validate the vertical KPIs when investigating for example: a) enhancements required in the LTE and 5G networks in order to support the “moving cell” concept or emerging scenarios of public-safety, b) how fog and edge computing design principles fit into the integrated environment, or c) what network enhancements are necessary in both the data and control planes of multiple wired/optical/wireless technologies in order to support IoT/M2M/D2D. This list is indicative and can be quite extensive. Our main objective at the project and at EUCNC2021 is to collaboratively develop a framework and raise an intradisciplinary expert discussion on UAV integration BY involving advanced communication modes and technologies for the sake of safe and sustainable mobility of the future in the third dimension of our living space. The project team will visualise some of the project trial activities and by this the capabilities of advanced communications to enable the autonomous mobility in the third dimension – air, also in the context of the overall autonomous and manned mobility modes in our settlements and regions.

5G-SMART

5G for enhanced semiconductor factory automation

The fifth generation of the mobile communication technology (5G) promises to revolutionize the communication landscape, enabling numerous services such as autonomous vehicles, real-time monitoring and control, etc. with their stringent Quality-of-Service (QoS) requirements. Together with the fourth generation of the industrial revolution, 5G is expected to gradually penetrate into different industries, blurring the line between the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and Operational Technology (OT) domains. While the integration of 5G into the industrial environments brings a number of benefits (e.g., flexibility of customizing the factories, easing the maintenance of industrial machines, and enhancing the control and management of the diverse devices used on the factory shopfloors), it also poses several challenges pertaining to satisfying the ambitious requirements in terms of high reliability, ultra-low latency, jitter, synchronization accuracy, etc. of different industrial applications. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to validate the deployability of 5G at factories, conducting Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) tests, analysing the wireless channel characteristics in the specific environments, and deploying a 5G network to trial and validate applications and use cases specific to the factory environment. The objective of the 5G-SMART project has two major objectives with an overarching goal of validating 5G deployment in a Bosch semiconductor factory in Reutlingen. The first objective is to validate the deployability of 5G in this rather challenging factory environment composed of a cleanroom area full of metallic objects, various industrial machines, and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs). Toward this end, there are two important aspects to be considered, namely, Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) tests and channel measurements. While the former aims at investigating if (if yes, how much) the electromagnetic signal generated by 5G has a negative impact onto the running production of semiconductors, the goal of the latter is to examine the channel characteristics at the Bosch semiconductor factory to find out if reliable communication can be achieved in this complex environment. The second major objective is to design, trial, validate, and evaluate two use cases, namely, “Cloud-based mobile robotics” and “TSN/Industrial LAN over 5G” – which are representative of the use cases that nowadays can be found in many factories – in a standalone, private 5G deployment at the factory. The demo booth explores industrial Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) applications and industrial control communication.  Two use cases are investigated: “Cloud-based mobile robotics” and “TSN/Industrial LAN over 5G”. The intelligence of an AGV is being completely removed and reimplemented in a cloud native manner in the edge cloud located in the factory, reducing the cost of the robot and simplifying scalability. A demo video exists that showcases the coordination of the mobile robots using a common map stored in the edge cloud. Furthermore, 5G-SMART has undertaken two measurement campaigns in the Bosch semiconductor factory. The first measurement campaign has been conducted aiming to better understand the propagation characteristics of 5G radio waves in industrial environments. In the second measurement campaign electromagnetic compliance has been studied, showing that for a large number of devices investigated, the radio signals did not have any adverse effects on the production and testing of the various semiconductor products.

URBSENSE

URBSENSE – The City Nervous System

The telecommunications environment is a constantly evolving medium, which foresees the massification of innovative technologies leveraged by the 5G mobile network. The emergence of the 5G network will respond to the high expectations of quality of experience for users of mobile communications, as well as enabling the capability of fast response and smart services to cities, facilitating the essential much-awaited change in this sector. However, the current overpopulation of the urban centres presents new challenges to the massive and ubiquitous installation of a scalable and efficient 5G network taking into account the existing telecommunications infrastructures. Currently, half of the world’s population is distributed in cities and this number is expected to increase, which represents a rising number of devices, sensors and services, in need of continuous response, which the existing network infrastructures will not be able to supper. To assist cities, mobile network operators, and owners of telecommunications infrastructures in an effective and sustainable transition to the 5G network, Ubiwhere created URBSENSE. Ubiwhere instends to demonstrate the impact of the URBSENSE platform on the transition to the 5G network at global scale, showcasing how research and innovation initiatives can prompt that creation of disruptive technology capable of assisting all stakeholders reaching the potential expected with this transition mainly for city services and telecom operators. Ubiwhere will focus on displaying materials enlightening visitors of the real impact of the project through the presentation of the use cases and the pilots carried out within the project. Furthermore, the display of the real-life application of the platform will allow Ubiwhere to take the visitor on the complete journey of research and innovation initiatives, from spotting a global need and leveraging national and international research to develop disruptive technology capable of impacting the whole society, making it a bit more prepared to embrace the evolving world of 5G technology. URBSENSE is a radio device management platform for the 5G network. Its main feature is retrofitting, that is, the ability to equip existing urban infrastructure with wireless communication features, sensing, computing, data storage, and infrastructure management; and thus, transforming them into platforms for collecting and processing data and making communications available through 5G networks. Ubiwhere will demonstrate how more than enabling the use of urban infrastructure, and thus limiting visual pollution and additional buildings in cities, URBSENSE builds a new business model: it allows the sharing of infrastructure through an open access model, benefiting both mobile network operators and other players that operate in different verticals, thus facing lower installation (CAPEX) and operation (OPEX) costs related to 5G networks. Another innovative component of the project to be demonstrated is Edge Computing and how it will optimise general network connection capabilities, making it faster, safer, and more reliable, providing a better experience for the end-user. Ubiwhere will showcase the impact of URBSENSE through a dynamic presentation and digital promotional material displaying the needs that have prompted the creation of the project, the technology developed and its practical application.
