Advancing Industrial Connectivity: OPC UA and 5G NPN Scenarios
The web seminar will take place on 05 November 2024, 10:00 – 11:00 CET.
PART 1
Integration of OPC UA in 5G Networks
Speaker: Onur Ayan, Research Engineer, Huawei
Moderator: Andrea Daquino, Infineon, 5G-ACIA WG4 Chair
OPC UA is a platform-independent standard that is used for communication among various types of devices and systems in the industrial domain. In order to integrate OPC UA FX with the 5G system, it is important to understand the core principles of the OPC UA, since the 5G system is the medium for establishing and maintaining connectivity between the components and various automation functions represented by FunctionalEntities (FEs). This whitepaper gives an overview of OPC UA FX, provides insights into its integration with 5G systems and assesses its technology readiness level.
Speaker: Onur Ayan, Research Engineer, Huawei
The speaker, Onur Ayan, completed his Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). After completing his Master’s program, he joined the Chair of Communication Networks at TUM, where he worked as a teaching and research associate, and subsequently received his doctoral degree (i.e., PhD). His PhD focused on network resource management for cyber-physical systems and networked control over wireless networks. In December 2022, he joined Huawei Technologies, where he has been working as a research engineer at the Advanced Wireless Technology Laboratory in Munich Research Center.
PART 2
5G NPNs for Industrial Scenarios
Speaker: Atte Lansisalmi, Principal Standardization Lead, Nokia
Moderator: Andrea Daquino, Infineon, 5G-ACIA WG4 Chair
This presentation discusses key findings from a 5G-ACIA whitepaper on 5G NPNs that was published this year in April. 5G NPNs are already used for industrial applications today in various configurations. The most important criteria in selecting the NPN deployment type is to assure it meets the needs of the intended use. Therefore, we start our analysis from real life-type example industrial operation scenarios, which were contributed by the OT members in 5G-ACIA. Then, as contributed by our ICT members, we present example NPN deployment options that support the use cases, are based on standard technology and are in line with the market offering today. From there we discuss the different aspects that affect selecting the deployment option.
