Integration of Wireless Communication Capabilities to Enable Context Aware Industrial Internet of Thing Environments Chapter in Scopus

© 2021, ICST Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering.In order to provide interactive capabilities within the context of Internet of Thing (IoT) applications, wireless communication systems play a key role, owing to inherent mobility, ubiquity and ease of deployment. However, in order to comply with Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE) metrics, coverage/capacity analysis must be performed, in order to account for the impact of signal blockage as well as multiple interference sources. This analysis is especially complex in the case of indoor scenarios, such as those derived from Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). In this work, a fully volumetric approach is employed in order to provide precise wireless channel characterization and hence, system level analysis of indoor scenarios. The proposed methodology will be tested against a real measurement scenario, providing full flexibility and scalability for adoption in a wide range of IIoT capable environments.
