With a computing board added to the traditional base station, it provides functions such as precise clock synchronization, enhanced connection capabilities, deterministic delay guarantee, and support for centralized and cloud-based PLC. In addition to traditional base station functions, 5G industrial base stations offer four key features:
ZTE's 5G Binjiang Factory in Nanjing has been exploring the application of the 5G industrial field network solution in intelligent manufacturing. On the QCell assembly line, an on-site network service platform has been built using the industrial base station solution and the 5G industrial gateway.
This solution, based on the basic network connections of the traditional base stations, provides enhanced assurance of deterministic connection capabilities, making it possible for 5G to penetrate into the operational technology (OT) domain of the industrial production line.
The 5G+ Industrial Internet has become an important force to promote the digital, intelligent, and green transformation of the industry. In the current phase, 5G has moved from being used as an industrial campus network solution for auxiliary production to becoming an industrial field network solution for production line operations.
Site-selection considerations also are driving changes to the PA and PSU designs. The higher the frequency, the shorter the signals travel, which means mmWave-based 5G will require a much higher density of small cells compared to 4G. Many 5G sites will also need to be close to street level, where people are.
This technique reduces opex by putting a base station into a “sleep mode,” with only the essentials remaining powered on. Pulse power leverages 5G base stations’ ability to analyze traffic loads. In 4G, radios are always on, even when traffic levels don’t warrant it, such as transmitting reference signals to detect users in the middle of the night.
