Title
Bringing time-sensitive networking to wireless professional private networks filling gaps and bridging the innovation
Author
Abstract
Private professional environments such as manufacturing industry, warehouses, hospitals, airports, among others, increasingly rely on end-to-end connected solutions to support and to improve their daily operational performance. This comes with a demand for real-time and deterministic communication, without evading the flexibility offered by wireless communication. Currently, wireless networks are lacking time-sensitive networking (TSN) features, making them only suitable for non-time-critical communication. To support end-to-end wireless-wired deterministic communication in these private professional environments, it is necessary to introduce TSN features to the wireless network segments. In this paper, we list a number of considerations that have to be addressed before such communication may become a reality, including accurate time synchronization and fine-grained scheduling. Based on these considerations, we present a proof-of-concept realization of a TSN-capable Wi-Fi system, which enables end-to-end wireless-wired deterministic communication.
