Flexible and dependable manufacturing beyond xURLLC: A novel framework for communication-control co-design
Future Industrial 4.0 applications in the 6G era is calling for high dependability that goes far beyond the current ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC), and therewith proposed critical challenges to the communication technology. Instead of struggling against the physical and technical limits towards an extreme URLLC (xURLLC), communication-control co-design (CoCoCo) appears a more promising solution. This work proposes a novel framework of CoCoCo, which is not only enhancing the dependability of 6G industrial applications such as remote control, but also exhibiting rich potential in revolutionizing the future industry per openness and flexibility of manufacturing systems.
