Electromagnetic Interference Analysis of Industrial IoT Networks: From Legacy Systems to 5G
Open accessAbstract
The presence of Industrial IoT systems on the factory shop floor in recent years, are becoming an attractive solution with many advantages, including flexibility, low cost and easy deployment. As more and more devices are wirelessly connected, spectral noise level increases and consequently radio interference between IoT devices. In this paper, we present an agnostic methodology to assess radio interferences between different industrial IoT systems on the factory floor, using appropriate propagation models. Several interference scenarios are simulated, ranging from legacy systems to future communication standards implementations (5G). We highlight some of the challenges and open issues that still need to be addressed to decrease interference and make industrial wireless systems compatible.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
