Siemens and Qualcomm collaborate to implement private 5G standalone (SA) network in industrial environment
西門子與高通合作在工業環境中部署私有5G獨立（SA）網絡

November 27, 2019 - Siemens and Qualcomm Technologies have implemented the first private 5G standalone (SA) network in a real industrial environment using the 3.7-3.8GHz band. Both companies have joined forces in this project: Siemens is providing the actual industrial test conditions and end devices such as Simatic control systems and IO devices and Qualcomm is supplying the 5G test network and the relevant test equipment. The 5G network was installed in Siemens’ Automotive Showroom and Test Center in Nuremberg. Automated guided vehicles are (AGV) displayed here which are primarily used in the automotive industry. New manufacturing options and methods are also developed, tested and presented before they are put into action  on customer sites. This allows Siemens’ customers, such as automated guided vehicle manufacturers, to see the products interact live.

2019年11月27日——西門子和高通技術公司在真實工業環境中基于3.7-3.8GHz頻段部署了首個私有5G獨立組網（SA）網絡。兩家公司共同參與了該項目：西門子提供真實的工業測試條件和終端設備，例如Simatic控制系統和IO設備，而高通則提供5G測試網絡和相關的測試設備。該5G網絡已部署在紐倫堡的西門子汽車行業展廳和測試中心。這里展示主要是用于汽車行業的自動引導車（AGV）。在將其應用于客戶現場之前，還將開發、測試和展示新的制造方式和方法。這樣，西門子的客戶（比如自動引導車制造商）就能夠實時看到產品之間的交互。

The Automotive Showroom and Test Center enables Siemens and Qualcomm to test all the different technologies in a standalone 5G network under actual operating conditions and to come up with solutions for the industrial applications of the future. Qualcomm Technologies installed the 5G test system comprising infrastructure and end devices in less than three weeks. Siemens provided the actual industrial setup including Simatic control systems and IO devices.

通過行業汽車展廳和測試中心，西門子和高通可以在獨立的5G網絡中，在實際運行條件下測試所有不同的技術，并為未來的工業應用提供解決方案。高通在不到三周的時間內安裝了包括基礎設施和終端設備的5G測試系統。西門子提供了包括Simatic控制系統和IO設備在內的實際工業設備。

The German Federal Network Agency has reserved a total bandwidth of 100 MHz from 3.7 GHz to 3.8 GHz for use on local industrial sites. German companies are thus able to rent part of this bandwidth on an annual basis and to make exclusive use of it on their own operating sites in a private 5G network whilst also providing data protection. Siemens is using this principle to evaluate and test industrial protocols such as OPC UA and Profinet in its Automotive Showroom and Test Center together with wireless communication via 5G.

德國聯邦網絡管理局已保留從3.7 GHz到3.8 GHz的100 MHz總帶寬供本地工業企業使用。因此，德國公司能夠每年租用其中帶寬，并在私有5G網絡中在自己的運營站點上獨家使用這部分帶寬，從而獲得數據保護。西門子正是利用這一原則在其汽車展廳和測試中心評估和測試5G無線通信環境下OPC UA和Profinet等工業協議的表現。

Siemens and Qualcomm Technologies have a collaboration focused on technological cooperation in wireless communication technologies. Amongst other things, this has resulted in the development of the Siemens Scalance portfolio for industrial wireless communication. With Qualcomm Technologies’ expertise in 5G technology, this collaboration continues to evolve seamlessly, leading to the standalone private 5G network in an industrial environment. This allows solutions to be tested and developed which industry will be able to use with the up-and-coming Release 16 of the 5G standard.

西門子和高通在無線通信技術中保持著技術合作。此外，該合作也促進了西門子工業無線通信產品組合Scalance的發展。借助高通在5G技術方面的專業知識，雙方的合作將繼續深入，從而打造工業環境中的獨立專用5G網絡。這使得對解決方案進行測試和開發之后，企業能夠在即將推出的5G標準第16版發布后快速進行部署。
