The Internet of Things (IoT) is captivating the society because of its potential to rapidly transform businesses and people's lives. It is widely believed that IoT will also transform the industrial automation business in terms of improved productivity, less cost, flexibility, and increased revenues. Hence, there are some challenges that needs to be addressed when IoT is introduced to the industrial...
Industrial wireless sensor and actuator networks (IWSANs) offer significant advantages to industrial automation. However, high-reliability demands and hard communication deadlines pose challenges to its practical applications. To achieve this goal, flooding is considered as a promising approach due to multipath diversity and simplicity. In this paper, an enhanced version of REALFLOW, a flooding-based...
With the growing interest in adoption of wireless technologies in industrial automation and the continuous search for new revenue streams new players are entering the arena in order to make their business grow further. One of the emerging wireless technologies aiming to support industrial automation applications is 5G, targeting anything from extreme throughput (> 10 Gbit/s) to extreme low latency...
A key aspect of realizing the future smart grid communication solution is a balanced approach between the network performance and the network security during the network deployment. A high security communication flow path is not useful when the network path cannot support capacity and reachability requirements. The deployment phase in communication network can facilitate an optimal network path by...
The control applications of Industrial Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks (IWSANs) are subject to strict requirements in terms of reliability and end-to-end delay. Transmission failures or deadline misses may seriously degrade the quality of control. In this paper, we propose a reliable real-time routing protocol in IWSANs for industrial control purpose. Node weight values and related node lists...
In this paper we address the issues of timeliness and transmission reliability of existing industrial communication standards. We combine a Forward Error Correction coding scheme on the Medium Access Control layer with a lightweight routing protocol to form an IEEE 802.15.4-conformable solution, which can be implemented into already existing hardware without violating the standard. After laying the...
