From a mobile network technology perspective, PROFINET requires communication to happen on Layer 2 instead of traditional Layer 3. For some time, there has been available VLAN technology to provide a Layer 2 tunnel between User Plane Function (UPF) and UE. Setting up a tunnel is additional work and more importantly, every vendor has different requirements and procedures for the VLAN tunnels. Using PROFINET over VLAN is not a scalable solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To solve this problem, 3GPP has a standardized Ethernet Packet Data Unit (PDU). Ethernet PDU provides native Layer 2 connectivity between UPF, and UE as shown in the picture below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/iot-ngin.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tsn2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3105\" width=\"516\" height=\"617\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iot-ngin.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tsn2.png 689w, https:\/\/iot-ngin.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tsn2-251x300.png 251w, https:\/\/iot-ngin.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tsn2-600x718.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 516px) 100vw, 516px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>5G SA network using Ethernet PDU can deliver Precision Time Protocol (PTP) messages over the network and deliver TSN feature. Having time synchronization is a mandatory feature in automation systems, in control loops we need to have precise knowledge of when measurements have been done and synchronize control signals to valves, motors etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cumucore has been working with the ABB automation division to build a real-life off-the-shelf solution. In April 2023, we had a breakthrough to deliver synchronization signals over the network. See the network diagram below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/iot-ngin.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tsn3.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3106\" width=\"746\" height=\"318\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iot-ngin.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tsn3.png 979w, https:\/\/iot-ngin.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tsn3-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/iot-ngin.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tsn3-768x328.png 768w, https:\/\/iot-ngin.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/tsn3-600x256.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 746px) 100vw, 746px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Work will continue to improve network accuracy using new Release 17 Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) features and UE capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Industry automation systems are using the PROFINET protocol to allow multi-vendor implementation.
