Wi-Fi QoS Enhancements for Downlink Operations in Industrial Automation Using TSN
2019 15th IEEE International Workshop on Factory Communication Systems (WFCS)(2019)
摘要
Communication technologies on the industrial automation domain are in constant evolution. Demanding industrial automation applications require real-time communication with high-reliability, determinism, redundancy, synchronization, and low-latency. A technology meeting these requirements is the Ethernet-based Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN). A wireless complement to TSN would enable mobility, ease of installation and quick deployment to industrial networks. This paper investigates Wi-Fi for this purpose. The study is focused on improving the Quality of Service of Wi-Fi for downlink with MAC layer modifications while analyzing the jitter and delay performance of the network. Simulation results show that a new access category for time-critical traffic improves the performance and creates an opportunity to use TSN and Wi-Fi technologies for several industrial automation use cases.
