“…The diverse set of 6G KPIs will either evolve from the main 5G KPIs or are novel ones introduced in 6G. Important 5G KPIs like reliability and latency will be further extended in 6G to consider the broader concept of dependability, whose main attributes are availability, reliability, safety, integrity, and security [18], [19]. Similarly, emerging applications like connectivity for multirobot systems including unmanned aerial objects will render connectivity requirements to be measured in volumetric unit.…”

Future industrial applications will encompass compelling new use cases requiring stringent performance guarantees over multiple key performance indicators (KPI) such as reliability, dependability, latency, time synchronization, security, etc. Achieving such stringent and diverse service requirements necessitates the design of a special-purpose Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) network comprising a multitude of specialized functionalities and technological enablers. This article proposes an innovative architecture for such a special-purpose 6G IIoT network incorporating seven functional building blocks categorized into: special-purpose functionalities and enabling technologies. The former consists of Wireless Environment Control, Traffic/Channel Prediction, Proactive Resource Management and End-to-End Optimization functions; whereas the latter includes Synchronization and Coordination, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence Algorithms, and Auxiliary Functions. The proposed architecture aims at providing a resource-efficient and holistic solution for the complex and dynamically challenging requirements imposed by future 6G industrial use cases. Selected test scenarios are provided and assessed to illustrate cross-functional collaboration and demonstrate the applicability of the proposed architecture in a wireless IIoT network.

The initial vision of cellular communications was to deliver ubiquitous voice communications to anyone anywhere. In a simplified view, 1G delivered voice services for business customers, and only 2G for consumers. Next, this also initiated the appetite for cellular data, for which 3G was designed. However, Blackberry delivered business smartphones, and 4G made smartphones a consumer device. The promise of 5G is to start the Tactile Internet, to control real and virtual objects in real-time via cellular. However, the hype around 5G is, again, focusing on business customers, in particular in the context of campus networks. Consequently, 6G must provide an infrastructure to enable remote-controlled mobile robotic solutions for everyone-the Personal Tactile Internet. Which role can information and communication theory play in this context, and what are the big challenges ahead? PerspectiveFor over 100 years, mankind has been dreaming of personal mobile robotic helpers that make our everyday lives more comfortable. There are many examples: As a child: Someone who cleans up our room or is an additional interactive companion. As an adult: Someone who helps with our daily chores, is a friendly companion, and cleans our room or carries the shopping. As a senior: Someone who makes life at home possible and delays the move to assisted living space.This requires, based on innovations in electronics, a maturity in robotics technology that is foreseeable within the next ten years. However, the missing piece is the wireless networking infrastructure to enable sensing and orchestration of control functions. That is the challenge to be tackled by 6G. Building on the previous five generations of mobile communications, we currently are in the process of learning what is missing for this vision. From 2030 on, with the launch of 6G, the old dream of mankind of robotic helpers easing our life will therefore become reality-the Personal Tactile Internet.So far, every ten years a new generation of mobile communications has been introduced. Here is a highly simplified overview that provides an insight into the trend of the application innovations.
