Siemens and Qualcomm collaborate to implement private 5G standalone (SA) network in industrial environment
西門(mén)子與高通合作在工業(yè)環(huán)境中部署私有5G獨(dú)立（SA）網(wǎng)絡(luò)

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(mén)子和高通技術(shù)公司在真實(shí)工業(yè)環(huán)境中基于3.7-3.8GHz頻段部署了首個(gè)私有5G獨(dú)立組網(wǎng)（SA）網(wǎng)絡(luò)。兩家公司共同參與了該項(xiàng)目：西門(mén)子提供真實(shí)的工業(yè)測(cè)試條件和終端設(shè)備，例如Simatic控制系統(tǒng)和IO設(shè)備，而高通則提供5G測(cè)試網(wǎng)絡(luò)和相關(guān)的測(cè)試設(shè)備。該5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)已部署在紐倫堡的西門(mén)子汽車(chē)行業(yè)展廳和測(cè)試中心。這里展示主要是用于汽車(chē)行業(yè)的自動(dòng)引導(dǎo)車(chē)（AGV）。在將其應(yīng)用于客戶(hù)現(xiàn)場(chǎng)之前，還將開(kāi)發(fā)、測(cè)試和展示新的制造方式和方法。這樣，西門(mén)子的客戶(hù)（比如自動(dòng)引導(dǎo)車(chē)制造商）就能夠?qū)崟r(shí)看到產(chǎn)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(guò)行業(yè)汽車(chē)展廳和測(cè)試中心，西門(mén)子和高通可以在獨(dú)立的5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)中，在實(shí)際運(yùn)行條件下測(cè)試所有不同的技術(shù)，并為未來(lái)的工業(yè)應(yīng)用提供解決方案。高通在不到三周的時(shí)間內(nèi)安裝了包括基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施和終端設(shè)備的5G測(cè)試系統(tǒng)。西門(mén)子提供了包括Simatic控制系統(tǒng)和IO設(shè)備在內(nèi)的實(shí)際工業(yè)設(shè)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(guó)聯(lián)邦網(wǎng)絡(luò)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(yè)企業(yè)使用。因此，德國(guó)公司能夠每年租用其中帶寬，并在私有5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)中在自己的運(yùn)營(yíng)站點(diǎn)上獨(dú)家使用這部分帶寬，從而獲得數(shù)據(jù)保護(hù)。西門(mén)子正是利用這一原則在其汽車(chē)展廳和測(cè)試中心評(píng)估和測(cè)試5G無(wú)線通信環(huán)境下OPC UA和Profinet等工業(yè)協(xié)議的表現(xiàn)。

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(mén)子和高通在無(wú)線通信技術(shù)中保持著技術(shù)合作。此外，該合作也促進(jìn)了西門(mén)子工業(yè)無(wú)線通信產(chǎn)品組合Scalance的發(fā)展。借助高通在5G技術(shù)方面的專(zhuān)業(yè)知識(shí)，雙方的合作將繼續(xù)深入，從而打造工業(yè)環(huán)境中的獨(dú)立專(zhuān)用5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)。這使得對(duì)解決方案進(jìn)行測(cè)試和開(kāi)發(fā)之后，企業(yè)能夠在即將推出的5G標(biāo)準(zhǔn)第16版發(fā)布后快速進(jìn)行部署。
