5GSmartFact is an MSCA-ITN project funded by the EU whose objective is to study, develop, optimize and assess the deployment of 5G networks that target the IIoT requirements (in terms of availability, ultra-low latency, reliability, amount of supported devices, localization accuracy and energy efficiency) in factory environments, and exploit them to integrate factory applications (especially those related to robot-control and robot navigation) which might lead to a complete redesign of networked robot architectures and hence to a leap forward in the industry automation .
The official project start is 1st March 2021, and is running until end 2025.
The training of the project was completed in January 2025. Check Training & events link. Now preparing the final event at EUCNC 2025 in Poznan.
Keynote talk: Spectrum challenges for 6G era - Lorenza Giupponi (Ericsson) on 8 January 2025 at 16:30, room D5-007, in Campus Nord UPC, Barcelona.
Three PhDs completed so far, check them here. Congratulations for your excellent achievements.
