1. Review: Achievements and Concerns of 5G + Industrial Internet
By 2026, China will have built the world's largest and most comprehensive 5G industrial application system. Despite the impressive achievements of benchmark projects, 5G still faces three major challenges:
|
Pain Point Dimension |
Specific manifestations |
Root cause analysis |
|
Performance |
High latency jitters and insufficient uplink bandwidth make it unsuitable as a replacement for wired connections. |
The NSA architecture relies on the public core network; spectrum resources are limited. |
|
Security |
Data is transmitted via the Telecom Operator's main network, raising concerns about data leaks; compliance audits are costly. |
The user base is not fully penetrated; security boundaries are unclear; and there is a lack of independent control capabilities. |
|
Cost |
Network construction is expensive, maintenance is difficult, and terminal adaptation is slow, making ROI difficult to quantify. |
Low customization leads to poor re-usability and a single business model . |
Key Insight: The essence of the above problems lies in the structural contradiction between the general public network architecture and the personalized, deterministic needs of industry . To truly unleash the value of 5G, we must shift from "best-effort" to "deterministic commitment," which is precisely the historical mission of 5G standalone private networks.
2. Breaking the Mold: The Core Advantages of 5G Standalone Private Networks
- Stable and low latency: End-to-end latency is stable at 4-8ms, jitters is <100μs, and reliability reaches 99.999%, which can seamlessly replace traditional industrial buses such as Profinet and EtherCAT.
- Uplink enhancement: Dedicated spectrum allows enterprises to meet industry applications according to their own needs through extreme frame structure optimization and MIMO technology : for example, a single cell uplink peak rate of 1Gbps supports concurrent detection of hundreds of high-definition AOI channels.
- Zero data outbound: Core network elements such as UPF, SMF, and UDM are 100% localized and deployed, with physical isolation of production data, naturally meeting the requirements of Level 3 Information Security Protection, GDPR, and special industry regulations.
- Lower TCO : Effectively avoids exorbitant data traffic fees and costly network maintenance expenses from Telecom Operators.
3. Deployment: 5G Standalone Private Network Deployment Solution
SpideRadio has long been deeply involved in the 5G+Industrial Internet vertical industry, possessing a profound understanding of the differentiated needs of various industries for 5G standalone private network deployment. The "Industry X" solution synergies SA architecture, local core network , and dedicated spectrum to provide robust connectivity for intelligent manufacturing, truly unlocking the deep value of 5G in vertical industries and helping enterprises achieve cost reduction, efficiency improvement, and innovative development in their digital transformation.
- Lite 5G Core, adapted for industrial applications
The Lite 5G Core follows the 3GPP R16/R17 standard. Through network element convergence, function reduction, cloud-native lightening and other means, it merges AMF/SMF/UPF/AUSF/UDM into 2-3 converged network elements, removes complex service components such as NRF, NSSF, and PCF that are not necessary in private networks, and achieves a high degree of integration between the control plane and the user plane, compressed into a streamlined version that can run on a single server.
- 5G macro base station + 5.9GHz high-power RRU to meet wide coverage scenarios
The Bell series features a compact 2U BBU design, supporting multi-mode (2G/4G/5G) deployment. A single BBU supports up to seven baseband boards, enabling flexible network expansion from small deployments to large coverage areas. In addition to the standard 100MHz bandwidth, it also supports up to 200MHz aggregation via carrier aggregation; combined with the optimal 1D3U configuration, it supports uplink peak user rates of 1Gbps. The Rontgen RRU supports 8T8R 8x40W transmit power, perfectly matching the needs of open, wide-coverage private network scenarios such as ports, mines, and airports. Besides traditional star topological, it also supports ring topological to ensure link robustness, guaranteeing uninterrupted service even when a node in the fiber optic link experiences an anomaly.
- Watt-level millimeter-wave integrated station enables easy deployment.
The 25GHz mmWave watt-level integrated base station helps owners achieve easy deployment (same-day deployment, plug and play). Compared to other mw-level small base stations, it effectively ensures coverage in indoor scenarios such as factories, warehouses, logistics facilities, and storage yards. Through 120kHz sub-carrier configuration, it supports a maximum bandwidth of 400MHz, achieving an uplink peak rate of 1Gbps and ultra-short latency scheduling of 0.125ms URLLC. Notably, the watt-level integrated base station supports a built-in 5G core network, allowing a single device to build a complete 5G standalone private network, achieving "out-of-the-box usability, data remaining within the park, and zero external dependencies."
- A wide range of industrial-grade terminals to meet the needs of massive applications across various industries.
With its strong R&D capabilities and industry chain integration capabilities, SpideRadio Communication can provide industrial customers with a wide range of terminals and deeply integrate them with a large number of industrial applications to help various industries.
- 5G industrial gateways/CPEs: Equipped with protocol conversion and edge computing capabilities, they support wide temperature range, dust and water resistance, and electromagnetic interference resistance, making them the "main force" in the wireless transformation of factories.
- 5G DTU (Data Transmission Unit): Small in size and low in power consumption, suitable for data transmission from distributed sensors and instruments.
- 5G RedCap Module: A lightweight 5G terminal that significantly reduces cost and power consumption while retaining the low latency characteristics of 5G, making it suitable for large-scale deployment in monitoring and sensing scenarios.
4. Conclusion: Building a solid foundation for new-type productivity through deterministic networks. -
With its determinism, security, agility, and cost-effectiveness, 5G standalone private networks are transforming 5G from an "optional accessory" into a "production necessity." SpideRadio Communication, leveraging its strong R&D capabilities and E2E industry chain integration capabilities, aims to empower various industries with its "Industry X" solutions, breaking existing constraints, unlocking countless possibilities, and contributing to the second half of the "5G Industrial Internet+" era.
Case Study: 5G Standalone Private Network in an Oilfield in Xinjiang
An oilfield belonging to a petroleum company in Xinjiang is located in the Gobi Desert. The first phase of the project mainly covers five contiguous oil production areas, three mining truck lines, one refinery, and one transportation rail line. Because this project is located in a national strategic energy base, geological exploration data and production operation parameters are core secrets, requiring strict supervision to ensure the localization of data.
The "Industry X" solution, through core network deployment, Bell BBU + 5.9GHz RRU, combined with a rich array of terminals such as industrial CPE/Router, 5G RedCap modules, and sensors, helps customers achieve:
- Core network fully offloaded: Deploy dual-active lightweight 5GC in the data center, and 100% offload all production data, video streams, and control signaling locally, physically isolated from the public network, to meet data supervision requirements ;
- Seamless continuous networking: Utilizing the wide coverage advantage of 5.9GHz 8x40W , continuous coverage of the work area can be achieved with a very small number of base stations, solving the "last mile" access problem for remote single wells and pipeline inspections ;
- 5G deterministic enhancement : U RLLC ultra-low latency scheduling stabilizes end-to-end control latency within 5 ms with jitters <500μs ;
-
Since its commercial operation, the project has achieved: unmanned inspections in remote areas, significantly reducing labor costs; remote control and robot operation in hazardous work areas; and AI-based pipeline leak detection, reducing the average detection time from 4 hours to 15 minutes, resulting in zero accidents in terms of safety and environmental protection.
