Abstract:5G communication systems are one of the major enabling technologies to meet the needs of Industry 4.0. This paper focuses on the use case of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) in an outdoor industrial scenario. To meet the communication requirements in these type of use cases, dual connectivity (DC) with resource aggregation in the uplink (UL) is generally proposed. However, uncontrolled use of DC schemes may negatively affect the network causing effects such as reduced network capacity, increased signaling, and… Show more
