Abstract

SummaryOn‐demand manufacturing in Industry 4.0 requires flexibility of the networks which can be provided with the fifth generation (5G) of mobile communications wireless connectivity. A key component in the efficient utilization of the radio resources in a manufacturing scenario is network resource management (NRM). We show how NRM can be automated with artificial intelligence (AI). We introduce several futuristic industrial use cases that require AI in various parts of the process. We analyze the AI components' benefits and disadvantages in several deployment scenarios. The findings can be used by business stakeholders interested in deploying the 5G cellular wireless network to choose the best NRM and AI implementation strategy for a particular use case. We show that there are many viable options for the AI component in the process automation, but the cost of AI has to be considered in all cases. Also, we point out that an essential component, the standardized information flow on the status of the productivity key performance indicators (KPIs), is needed for the successful deployment and application of the 5G AI.

人工智能组件在 5G 支持的敏捷工业生产单元中用于网络资源管理的部署方案

摘要工业 4.0 中的按需制造要求网络具有灵活性，第五代（5G）移动通信可提供这种无线连接。制造场景中有效利用无线电资源的一个关键组成部分是网络资源管理（NRM）。我们展示了如何利用人工智能（AI）实现网络资源管理自动化。我们介绍了几个未来工业用例，这些用例在流程的各个部分都需要人工智能。我们分析了人工智能组件在几种部署方案中的利弊。有兴趣部署 5G 蜂窝无线网络的企业利益相关者可以利用这些研究结果，为特定用例选择最佳的 NRM 和人工智能实施策略。我们表明，流程自动化中的人工智能组件有许多可行的选择，但在所有情况下都必须考虑人工智能的成本。此外，我们还指出，要成功部署和应用 5G 人工智能，还需要一个重要组成部分，即有关生产率关键绩效指标 (KPI) 状态的标准化信息流。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Communication Systems provides a forum for R&D, open to researchers from all types of institutions and organisations worldwide, aimed at the increasingly important area of communication technology. The Journal''s emphasis is particularly on the issues impacting behaviour at the system, service and management levels. Published twelve times a year, it provides coverage of advances that have a significant potential to impact the immense technical and commercial opportunities in the communications sector. The International Journal of Communication Systems strives to select a balance of contributions that promotes technical innovation allied to practical relevance across the range of system types and issues. The Journal addresses both public communication systems (Telecommunication, mobile, Internet, and Cable TV) and private systems (Intranets, enterprise networks, LANs, MANs, WANs). The following key areas and issues are regularly covered: -Transmission/Switching/Distribution technologies (ATM, SDH, TCP/IP, routers, DSL, cable modems, VoD, VoIP, WDM, etc.) -System control, network/service management -Network and Internet protocols and standards -Client-server, distributed and Web-based communication systems -Broadband and multimedia systems and applications, with a focus on increased service variety and interactivity -Trials of advanced systems and services; their implementation and evaluation -Novel concepts and improvements in technique; their theoretical basis and performance analysis using measurement/testing, modelling and simulation -Performance evaluation issues and methods.
