Wireless for industrial control being used for industrial control applications?
Examples of these are plentiful and include: automated guided vehicles (AGV’s), industrial cranes, remote sensors, energy controls within buildings, etc.
In these environments many factors must be considered:
- Do I have seamless roaming throughout my network?
- Are there potential sources of interference that could affect network stability and/or performance
- Do I have minimum data throughput requirements?
- Can I effectively accommodate the anticipated number of clients that will exist in my environment?
The design of wireless networks for industrial control systems requires an elevated knowledge of RF properties, a thorough understanding of the network components to be utilized, and an additional level of sensitivity to the target environment.
