COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES: SUPPORTING DIGITALISATION

摘要

Dr Peter Wenzel comments on industrial technology trends and the impact they are having on industrial communication solutions. Digitisation can only be successfully implemented area wide in production environments if the communication systems can take into account big data requirements. Big data is served by various data sources, in particular also those that deliver during production with the participation of sensors and actuators. On the one hand, this requires a higher bandwidth with which the data generated in the production environment can be transported to the cloud. On the other hand, standardised data formats are required for an efficient and barrier-free exchange of information.
