MASTEAM-MATT talk - Seyed Mahdi Darroudi (Neutroon) - How 5G penetrates the Industry? Can 5G satisfy Industry 4.0 requirements?

The EETAC Master's degrees in Applied Telecom. and Engineering Management (MASTEAM) and Advanced Telecommunications Technologies (MATT) organize a weekly series of activities (talks, technical visits, discussion pannels) that complement the academic activities with real-world experiences from companies, research centres and institutions in the main topics of the master: Internet of Things, Smart Cities, 5G mobile communications, Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Radio (SDR), cloud computing, augmented reality and audiovisual services, among others.”

This week's activity will be a talk session from Dr Seyed Mahdi Darroudi (Neutroon)

Title: "How 5G penetrates the Industry? Can 5G satisfy Industry 4.0 requirements?"

Abstract: From the common user experiences point of view like web browsing or youtube video streaming, etc, there is not much difference between 4G and 5G. The main benefit of the 5G is how it satisfies the Industry 4.0 requirements and penetrates into industrial use cases. Slicing and improving network KPIs opens the horizon to remove cables from shop floors and have a flexible production line employing 5G. However, the success rate of such replacement depends on how the 5G can be integrated into industrial communication protocols. This talk explains the 5G features which can satisfy Industry 4.0 requirements, challenges and solutions

Bio: Seyed Mahdi Darroudi received his Bachelor and Master degrees in Computer Network in 2007 and 2011, respectively. He is currently a PhD holder in Computer Network from UPC.

He has +15 years of experience and research on different wireless network technologies like WiFi, LPWAN, LoRa, satellite communication and cellular networks. He also has +5 years of teaching experience, giving courses on computer networks topics.  

Apart from publication, he is honored to be part of RFC 9159 standard. He has been peer reviewer for +10 well known highly rated journals and conferences. He has also experience on Fuzzy Logic as an AI method for Decision Support Systems (DSS).

He was recently founded by Torres Quevedo program to research on 5G/6G elements (RAN and Core) optimization employing AI/ML methods. He is currently R&D manager in Neutroon which investigates 5G/beyonds, toward 6G networks. His current scope of work also includes edge processing and integrating 5G networks into industrial use cases to satisfy Industry 4.0 requirements.
