This paper presents a comprehensive approach to designing a reliable communication network for the main Smart Factory applications, leveraging Time Sensitive Networks (TSN) and emerging technologies. As the manufacturing sector evolves under Industry 4.0, the integration of digital technologies and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) necessitate robust communication frameworks capable of addressing diverse industrial applications requirements in terms of latency, bandwidth, and reliability. However, the traditional networks do not meet the requirements of the main smart factory applications together, such as Remote control and safety applications which considered as strict real time applications, So TSN mechanisms, including Strict Priority (SP), Credit-Based Shaping (CBS), Time-Aware Shaping (TAS) and Frame Preemption (FP), have been explored to enhance data flow and support real-time functionalities of such applications. Moreover, the work employs H.265 compression technology based on edge computing concept to mitigate the impact consuming more bandwidth (such as Augmented Reality (AR) application) on overall network performance. Through several scenarios, enhanced network reliability and reduced end-to-end latency have been demonstrated, thereby addressing the challenges posed by the diverse requirements of Smart Factory applications facilitating the seamless integration of time-sensitive and non-time-sensitive applications within a unified communication network. |
