Title: WirelessHP: towards the Ethernet-grade wireless for critical control in industrial automation
Abstract: Demanded by the industrial applications, 5G has promised to support integration with the wired industrial ethernet especially the Time Sensitive Networking (TSN). However, there are still major gaps to truly provide a wireless equivalent to the wired industrial ethernet, which should be of the mission of the Extreme URLLC in 6G. In this presentation, I will introduce the progresses on the WirelessHP towards the Ethernet-grade wireless for critical control which has achieved <7us packet transmission time, <10e-9 BER without retransmission, and <100us application cycle time with customized PHY and MAC layer. Design principles, open challenges and future directions will be discussed.
