Interdisciplinary application fields, such as automotive, industrial applications or field robotics show an increasing need for reliable and resilient wireless communication even under high load conditions. These mission-critical applications require dependable service quality characteristics in terms of latency and especially stability. Current deployments often use either wired links that lack the flexibility to accommodate them, or wireless technologies that are susceptible to interference. Depending on the application and the surrounding environments, different technologies can meet the associated requirements and have to be tested deliberately to prevent unexpected system failure. To stress test these infrastructures in a reproducible and application-aware manner, we propose STING, a spatially distributed traffic and interference generation framework. STING is evaluated in a remote control test case of an Unmanned Ground Vehicle that serves as a scout in Search and Rescue missions. A significant impact of interference on the remote control quality of experience is shown in tests with different operators, which result in an 80% increase in completion time in our test scenario with high interference on the radio channel. With this case study, we have proven STING to be a reliable and reproducible way to asses resilience against interference of wireless machine-type communication use cases. Our concept can find use for any type of wireless technology, in unlicensed (e.g. Wi-Fi) as well as licensed bands (e.g. 5G). |
