A Rapid Roaming enhanced WIFI client monitors surroundings and prepares new access points (APs) before die-down and drop-off connection processes take place. Protocols are used to seek a new AP when communication is healthy, assuring throughput and faster transitions and switch times.

IoT-connected sensors with cloud-based geolocation capabilities allow organizations to monitor assets over large geographic regions. With this technology in place, retailers can work directly with their manufacturers and logistics partners to mitigate potential delays in the supply chain while managing customer expectations.

pLTE is truly a paradigm shift for industrial customers with challenging wireless needs. Businesses requiring a more secure network with higher reliability, more mobility, and broader coverage areas should seriously consider pLTE technology.

Wireless and cellular networks offer an array of solutions for IoT deployments. Identifying the parameters of the use case, and the nature of the deployment, is very important as companies optimize their communications networks for IIoT applications.

The question is not whether, but how IEEE 802.11ax (also known as Wi-Fi 6) and 5G are driving wireless mobile communications in the industrial environment. Siemens supports both technologies in order to offer optimal solutions for the most diverse requirements.

Complementary IoT solutions are filling the gap here where 5G may be costly, or when deployments simply cannot support its infrastructure. While options for IoT solutions are seemingly endless, it’s important to understand the needs of the deployment, and which solution can deliver.

Nick Sacke, head of IoT and products at Comms365, outlines the key considerations and questions that must be asked ahead of an IoT production rollout. He also describes why there is a necessity to use a blended strategy for network connectivity, rather than to look for a ‘one size fits…

A prevailing view is that integration of 5G and TSN will increasingly become more important to industrial automation in the future. The thinking is that TSN, as enabling technology of Industry 4.0 together with 5G URLLC, can be combined to provide deterministic connectivity end-to-end.

Advancements in telecommunications networks is generating a reaction in other industries that will unfold in the years to come. At the center of this migration is the need for more information in the form of data. The applications in today’s world are moving higher in frequency, and it is only…

It is only a matter of time until 5G will establish itself in industry. The flexibility of 5G with its different implementation approaches, private and/or public, makes this standard the most versatile mobile communications solution for industry, and solutions previously not feasible are now within reach.
