Network slicing is a novel 5G paradigm that exploits the virtualization and softwarization of networks to create different logical network instances over a common network infrastructure. Each instance is tailored for specific Quality of Service (QoS) profiles so that network slic…
Beyond 3G wireless systems will be composed of a variety of Radio Access Technologies (RATs) with different, but also complementary, performance and technical characteristics. To exploit such diversity while guaranteeing the interoperability and efficient management of the differ…
Factories are evolving towards digitalized data-based ecosystems under the paradigm of the Industry 4.0 where new industrial services allow the implementation of more robust, resilient and customized manufacturing systems. Such services (e.g., digital twins, extended reality or c…
Teleoperated driving (ToD) can support autonomous driving under complex or unexpected traffic scenarios that an autonomous vehicle may not understand or be able to handle. In ToD, autonomous vehicles transmit video feeds and perception data to the remote control center. The opera…
5G and beyond networks will support the digitalization of smart manufacturing thanks to their capacity to simultaneously serve different types of traffic with distinct QoS requirements. This can be achieved using Network Slicing that creates different logical network partitions (…
5G and beyond networks can facilitate the digital transformation of manufacturing and support more flexible and reconfigurable factories with ubiquitous mobile connectivity. This requires integrating 5G networks with industrial networks that increasingly rely on TSN (Time Sensiti…
