HMI 2024: CampusOS flagship project shows 5G campus networks in various applications

Martina Müller Pressestelle
Fraunhofer-Institut für Nachrichtentechnik, Heinrich-Hertz-Institut, HHI

    The lead project CampusOS, funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, will be showcasing how to successfully set up and operate a 5G campus network in industry at the Hannover Messe in the 5G Arena (Hall 15, booth H13) from April 22-26, 2024. Experience the new possibilities using representative application examples in Industry 4.0, logistics and robotics, safe teleoperated driving, on construction sites or in the clinic networked with 5G.

    5G mobile technologies open up groundbreaking opportunities for companies to operate mobile networks independently with so-called campus networks. They allow the design of specialized communication solutions with high performance that meet the company's specific requirements and maintain data sovereignty. The CampusOS flagship project, which is funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK), aims to develop an ecosystem for modular and open 5G campus networks and to explore application domains for 5G campus networks. This ecosystem is based on open radio technologies and interoperable network components and follows the OpenRAN principle. The project results guarantee manufacturer independence, more competition and innovations to strengthen the digital sovereignty of companies in Germany. In the CampusOS project, partners from industry and research are developing reference architectures and technologies tailored to the economy. They are also investigating various operator models and testing the interoperability and performance of the solutions in reference test fields, creating prototypes of 5G campus network solutions for different industries. The project is led by the Fraunhofer Institutes FOKUS and HHI.

    At the exhibition booth, you will be able to meet campus network experts from research and industry and get to know the industrial communication of the future at first hand. A series of panels and presentations will provide further exciting insights into the topic.

    In a nutshell - what you can expect at the CampusOS booth:

    Find out about the technologies and possible applications of 5G campus networks:

    • Architecture & Blueprints: Learn about the benefits and experiences of customized open and modular campus networks.
    • Building blocks catalog: Find suitable hardware and software components for a campus network to suit your company.
    • Operator models: Find out how you can plan, set up and operate a 5G campus network.
    • Reference test fields: Discover how the Fraunhofer Institutes HHI and FOKUS ensure the performance of 5G campus networks.
    • Digital Twins: Find out how this technology is used for network optimization.
    • Time synchronization: Learn more about the possibilities of TSN-based networks (TICCTEC project).
    • Open source solutions: Discover how standard servers and the 5G open source stack are used to develop cost-efficient and modular 5G networks (5G-OPERA project).
    • Partnership: Contact CampusOS partners if you would like to become part of a growing, forward-looking ecosystem that enables faster innovation cycles and strengthens your digital sovereignty.

    You can discover the following application scenarios for 5G campus networks right at the booth:

    • Industry 4.0: Low-latency and fail-safe vehicle control, high-volume data transmission of imaging processes such as videos and LIDAR data (FA: STILL in Hamburg).
    • Industry 4.0: Dynamic control of 5G mobile network parameters and prioritization of user devices (CampusDynA project)
    • Industry 4.0: Factory automation in SMEs, showing a mobile 5G network whose components (incl. core network) are modularly integrated in a device (5G++FlexiCell project)
    • Connected mobility: Safe tele-operated driving in confined areas such as factory premises, production facilities and parking lots (FA: BOSCH in Hildesheim).
    • Intralogistics: Communication in demanding environments such as high-bay warehouses (FA: DEMATIC in Heusenstamm)
    • Construction industry: Nomadic 5G network for precise positioning on construction sites and for transmitting live video streams for safety monitoring and remote briefing of personnel (FA: TOPCON in Herne)
    • Connected hospital: Possibilities of a 5G-based, low-cable network infrastructure in clinics (KliNet5G project)
