Title: Unleashing the Potential of Industrial IoT-Connected Railways
Speaker: Paula Fraga-Lamas, University of A Coruña
Description: The railway industry is compelled to exploit the opportunities created
by the IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) and enabling communication
technologies under the paradigm of `Internet of Trains’ in order to
remain competitive. This webinar explains the evolution of communication
technologies since GSM-R, describing the advantages of the latest
generation of broadband communication systems (e.g., LTE, 5G, IEEE
802.11ad) and the recent deployments of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs).
After
reviewing some industrial developments, short and medium-term
IIoT-enabled services for smart railways are evaluated, including
predictive maintenance, smart infrastructure, video surveillance
systems, railway operations, Passenger and Freight Information Systems
(PIS/FIS), train control systems, cyber security and energy efficiency.
Overall, it can be stated that the aim of this webinar is to provide a
detailed examination of the state-of-the-art of different key
technologies and services that will have an important role in the
railway industry to confront today and tomorrow challenges..
