IMAGINE-B5G

PULSE-5G (Predictive Utilisation of Cloud Logic and Sensors for Efficiency with 5G (Fifth Generation (wireless technology))) is an Industry 4.0 project focused on enhancing industrial automation through 5G, AI (Artificial Intelligence), and cloud-based control systems. Led by Simtera ICT (Information and Communication Technology), the project integrates Industrial IoT (IIoT - Industrial Internet of Things) and predictive analytics to optimise manufacturing processes.

By implementing a cloud-based "Programmable Logic Controller as a Service" (PLCaaS), PULSE-5G reduces infrastructure costs and improves efficiency. The experiment, conducted at a Norwegian facility, tests real-time monitoring, adaptive AI models, and digital twin. The project demonstrates 5G’s potential for scalable, cost-effective, and intelligent industrial automation, supporting digital transformation in manufacturing.
