The new site was used to trial 5G slicing, edge computing and smart manufacturing to help Bluetron build a new 5G smart factory.
"Committed to continuous technological innovation, ZTE works with operators and industry partners to explore the cooperation mode of the edge cloud and build an edge ecosystem together to comprehensively promote the commercial use of the MEC edge cloud and jointly promote the flourishing of 5G edge services," said Chen Xinyu (pictured), general manager of ZTE Telecom cloud & core network product line.
The trial comes as the demand for data and the requirements of industrial production continue to grow. Together the Zhejiang Branch of China Telecom, ZTE and Bluetron have developed an integrated solution of 5G slicing, edge computing and intelligent manufacturing.
The solution enables the rapid deployment of machine vision slicing and fast backhaul of video streams by adopting key technologies such as, slicing stores, wireless slicing perception, end-to-end slicing security isolation, dynamic slice migration, UPF moving to edge and UPF offloading.
These slices can reduce the latency, jitter and packet loss rate of video data transmission, guarantee the bandwidth and quality of video transmission and improve the accuracy and real-time performance of video analysis results.
This solution is applicable to wireless data collection and operation monitoring scenarios, allowing operators to avoid on-site processes in harsh environments, thereby reducing the labour and security risks of operators. These slices can reduce the latency, jitter and packet loss rate of video data transmission, guarantee the bandwidth and quality of video transmission and improve the accuracy and real-time performance of video analysis results. Industrial cameras and edge computing gateways are deployed on the production line to replace monitoring instruments.
