5G-based new generation logistics stage and scene interpretation process

1, 5G promotes the intelligentization of logistics and warehousing environments

In the new generation of logistics industry, the logistics and warehousing links need to be automated, which requires the advancement of artificial intelligence technology. At present, many smart robots have been used in the warehousing link to realize automated logistics sorting, automated item transmission, and automated entry and exit. Library and so on. Driven by the new generation of mobile communication technology 5G, the automation of the storage environment has become more promising.

The combination of 5G and artificial intelligence technology is also an inevitable trend. Many hardware chips embedded in robot devices cannot play more roles due to problems such as delay and energy consumption under the support of existing communication technologies. Therefore, the reliable transmission of 5G Can promote the use of intelligent robots. At present, many places in logistics have begun to use artificial intelligence technology, and many hardware devices similar to robots have been used for logistics services.

Smart warehousing is one of the scenarios where artificial intelligence technology is widely used in the new generation of logistics industry. 5G as a transport layer technology provides a powerful communication environment for it. At the same time, the massive access characteristics of 5G make many smart terminals in the warehousing link Equipment plays an active role in each module. For example, there are many drones, robots, shuttles, wearable devices, and sorting equipment in the storage environment.

Smart warehousing comes from the support of 5G, so 5G indirectly provides cargo protection for upstream e-commerce companies through warehousing, which can provide customers with a better logistics service experience. Smart warehousing also requires companies to invest more hardware resources and rationally lay out the warehousing model, so that 5G can exert greater effects. The country is also very concerned about the warehousing automation of logistics enterprises, because the value of logistics warehousing is a node in the entire supply chain. Using an intelligent warehousing environment can not only guarantee warehousing, but also improve the efficiency of warehouse delivery and warehousing.

2. Fully automated logistics transportation based on 5G implementation

Whether it is automated driving or other intelligent driving technologies, it needs the support of the Internet of Vehicles technology. The Internet of Vehicles technology can enable vehicles or drones in logistics to be easily connected to the network platform, and the remote control center can perform Schedule planning and issue necessary instructions. As a new generation of performance mobile communication technology, 5G can enable vehicles used in logistics transportation to break through the intelligent process bottleneck of technologies such as non-line-of-sight sensing and real-time sharing of data and information, and help realize the situation of fully automated logistics and transportation.

5G is mainly used for terminal communication of logistics transportation, that is, the process of data interaction and communication between transportation vehicles and remote cloud control centers and logistics application services. The terminal is responsible for collecting data, receiving instructions and sending information. The data mainly includes road conditions. And the condition of the vehicle and so on. Application services and cloud control centers can still use wired Ethernet communications. The main reason for adopting 5G communication in the structure is that 5G can meet the needs of the Internet of Vehicles environment for self-organizing network construction, instant data sharing and massive transmission, and high-quality performance such as low latency and high reliability.

3. Augmented reality logistics application based on 5G implementation

The next-generation logistics AR technology will rely on 5G as its data communication support.

The difficult point in warehouse operations lies in the sorting and review of logistics. AR technology can use arrows in the visual environment to navigate employees to specific goods locations, and then the system will display the number of goods that need to be picked, and employees can complete the picking At the same time, AR technology can also help engineers view the three-dimensional layout of the warehouse and then make adjustments to complete the warehouse design.

With the support of AR technology and background computing during transportation, transportation personnel can optimize the stowage and loading sequence of transported items, and achieve more accurate loading and unloading processes. In the distribution link, AR technology can optimize the distribution route and display road conditions accurately and in a timely manner. When distributing couriers to customers, employees in charge of delivery can use AR glasses to retrieve the number of the courier and identify the house number, which improves dispatch efficiency and guarantees delivery within one kilometer.

5G, as AR data communication technology, enables staff to use AR glasses to complete their work all the time, making logistics from warehousing to transportation to distribution truly integrated.
