5G Technologies Promise to Increase Product Innovations,Improve Performance, and Save Costs for the Industrial Segment THE CHALLENGE NEW 5G INDUSTRIAL USE CASES •5G transforming the manufacturing floor•5G enabling mobile industrial robots•5G remote monitoring and control of wind farms Industrial companies create the products and services that drive daily life for busi-nesses, consumers, and economies, but in a competitive business world they needto produce innovative products in an efficient and cost-effective way. To give a fewexamples: It isessential to modernize equipment on the manufacturing floor toincrease both speed and economy of production. Meanwhile, expanding the capa-bilities of industrial robots to better collaborate with humans and be mobile meansthat, with quicker access to data, they can increase production performance andalso be functionally safe and secure while operating within the factory. And to ex-pand energy production with technologies such as wind farms, for more reliableand economical energy production, intensive monitoring and control of equipmentin often remote landscapes is vital. WIND RIVER SOLUTIONS •VxWorks:The world’s leading real-time operat-ing system, enabling deterministic applications forembedded solutions. Widely used for operatingindustrial equipment from control automation,energy processing, medical devices, robotics, trans-portation systems, and more, VxWorks is ready to bethe real-time platform for high-speed 5G industrialapplications. •Wind River Linux:Industry-leading open source op-erating system for connecting, securing, and runningembedded systems and applications. Wind RiverLinux provides an open operating system ready toprovide a cost-effective foundation for 5G wirelessconnected industrial equipment and enables useof containerization for flexible, agile applicationinstallations. How can industrial equipment companies keep pace with the push to economizeand modernize, to be more data-centric, and to provide safety and security in theface of constant innovation? THE APPROACH One technology that shows promise for increasing security, cost-effectiveness, per-formance, and actionable data is 5G technology. 5G is the fifth generation of mo-bile networking technology, following 4G and working on the same principles. Yet5G NR (New Radio) air-interface technology will provide higher levels of scalabilityand flexibility that will enable much broader functionality for industrial segments(not to mention the public) to utilize. •Wind River Helix Virtualization Platform:A flexibleedge compute software platform that can manageunmodified guest OSes running industrial applica-tions or workloads in virtual machines, consolidatingworkloads for equipment for control automation,energy production, medical, transportation systems,and more. 5G wireless technology will provide improved speed, reduced latency, and the abil-ity to connect more devices at once. Additionally, 5G will bring a new level of wire-less service that merges all the basic functions of previous wireless generations anddelivers new networking technology offering the type of wireless coverage and newuse cases that will stir the imagination. •Wind River Cloud Platform:An open source, pro-duction grade, distributed Kubernetes for managingedge cloud infrastructure. Based on the OpenStackStarlingX project, Cloud Platform represents a com-pilation of best-in-class open source technology thatdelivers the features needed to effectively deployand manage distributed networks. Ready to provide5G network capabilities. •Wind River Titanium Control:An on-premisecloud infrastructure platform that enables digitaltransformation from legacy hardware to a virtual-ized automation environment, reducing OPEX andincreasing agility. It uses either virtual machines orapplication containers to run industrial equipmentconnected via the 5G wireless network. 5G Features and Benefits Let’s explore some 5G features that will optimize Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) platforms and the industrial segment as a whole: 5G Features and Benefits for Industrial Uses NEW INDUSTRIAL USE CASES WITH5G TECHNOLOGY The next 5G benefit that manufacturing will see is that compa-nies can vastly expand the sensors within their factories. 5G’swireless capability, high-speed capacity, low latency, and avail-ability will allow more data to be transmitted quickly and morefrequently, providing more data to the edge cloud computingsystem within the plant to operate the equipment at optimal Withthis new wave of 5G features,including high-speedthroughput, low latency, high reliability, and the other featuresoutlined in the chart above, industrial equipment will be ableto offer innovative technologies and services to support criticalapplications for a variety of use cases. Let’s look at three industrial use cases that can use 5G technolo-gies to increase production, improve operations and manage-ment, and be more cost-effective. 5G Transforming
