Objective of Proposal Idea: This project designs postage stamp size passive 5G RFID battery-less tags with autonomously navigated 5G IoT terminal scanners allowing ultra-low power/unattended operation in 5G networks. This research project aims to develop an autonomous robot equipped with an RFID terminal scanner that can navigate a warehouse and autonomously scan passive RFID tags attached to all stock items. Each product will be assigned a passive custom frequency RFID tag, allowing the robot to identify and count inventory in real time. Since the RFID tags are passive they do not require batteries to power them but instead gather energy from radio environment before[...]
Company Name: Savonia University of Applied Sciences
Expertise offered: Savonia University of Applied Sciences has modern 5G NR NSA private network. Our 5G network contains seven outdoor 5G mmW radios (n258), six indoor 5G mmW radios (four in n258 and two in n257 band), three 5G sub-6GHz SA radios in n77 band and Open Edge Server with local break out functionality. We have demonstrated real-time applications focusing on industrial applications utilizing 5G NR connection combined with Edge computing. Our 5G demos are autonomous mobile robot collaborating with cobot(s), remote control of mini excavator, and AR control of cobot over 5G. We could also prolong these ideas using reinforcement learning[...]
