5G3i Ultra-Edge technology is based on circuit level artificial intelligence solutions combining machine learning with optimal control and mathematical optimization. We apply this to motor drives, power inverters, and active power filters for predictive maintenance and remote management solutions, addressing challenges of data bandwidth, latency, and power.

Capabilities

Capabilities to supply, but no/limited experience in the sector

  • Pre-Construction Development Phase (DEVEX): Meteorological & Metocean Sensors

Ambitions to diversify in the sector

  • DEVEX - Project Management & QA Services: Asset Management and Inventory Control
  • CAPEX - Balance of Plant - Manufacture / Supply Services: Electrical system including backup generator, switchgear, transformers & converters
  • OPEX - Operations & Maintenance: Onshore Electrical

Other services offered

  • Developing control solutions providing real-time data for predictive maintenance and product lifecyle management models for digital twin

Case studies

Satellites for Digitalisation of Railways (SODOR) project is part of a joint initiative in the UK to demonstrate the integrated use of 5G in the area of transport and logistics, supported by UK Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, the UK Space Agency and the European Space Agency (ESA). The goal of SODOR project is to develop a demonstration of a hybrid satellite communications and terrestrial network for use on trains. The project aims to demonstrate how new constellations of communication satellites can seamlessly fill gaps in terrestrial coverage and provide additional capacity to improve safety and provide travellers with better connectivity.

Contract type: Grant

Value: 233,000 (5G3i portion of the project)

5G3i provides low bit rate non-mission critical connection for trackside sensor data collection (e.g. weather stations, train acoustic monitoring, landslides) using LEO satellite liniks (iridium) where terestrial coverage is absent. During the pilot demonstration, IoT mesh network using LoRa protocol will be used to connect sensor nodes connected to weather stations to gateway node connected to CGI satellite terminal. The IoT mesh network will have the capability to be deployed in remote locations without any infrastructure and without any advanced network planning, It will provide self-organizing functionality and will operate with solar panels and battery.
