5G systems will extend mobile communication services beyond mobile telephony, mobile broadband, and massive machine-type communication into new application domains, so-called vertical domains, with special requirements toward communication services. Communication for automation in vertical domains comes with demanding requirements -high availability, high reliability, low latency, and, in some cases, high-accuracy positioning.
Communication for automation in vertical domains has to support the applications for production in the corresponding vertical domain, for instance, industrial automation and energy automation, but also transportation. This focus-together with regulations specific for vertical domains-have led to tailored communication concepts in vertical domains such as dependable communication as well as specific security standards and mechanisms. The present document provides an overview on these concepts, in order to foster a common understanding used in communication for automation in vertical domains and 5G communication services, as well as the inference of a common terminology.
Many vertical use cases have been analysed by 3GPP and resulted in several vertical communication requirements that are already part of TS 22.261. Besides the already specified KPIs for latency, jitter, reliability, communication service availability, and data rate, other general vertical communication requirements need to be transposed into potential service requirements for 5G systems.
Communication for automation in vertical domains may take place in type-a and/or type-b networks. Network monitoring interfaces are necessary in order to assure network operation (SLAs). Multiple verticals and users might be using the same 5G communication network (multi-tenancy). Furthermore, vertical domains have their own security standards, implementations, and vertical-domain specific regulations, leading to stage-1 potential security requirements. Finally, integration between 5G communication systems and already existing communication networks of vertical domains is required.
Several missing representative vertical use cases for communication in automation in vertical domains are described in the present document and used for the derivation of further stage-1 potential requirements. These use cases focus on low latency, high reliability, and high communication service availability. Examples are automated guided vehicles and rail-bound mass transit (subways and suburban rail).
The present document provides new use cases and stage 1 potential requirements that have not yet been covered in previous stage 1 specifications. It is based on input from relevant stakeholders of the respective vertical domains.

1  Scopep. 14

The present document focuses on 5G communication for automation in vertical domains. This is communication that is involved in the production of and working on work pieces and goods, and/or the delivery of services in the physical world. Such communication often necessitates low latency, high reliability, and high communication service availability. Nevertheless, other types of communication are also possible in this area. Moreover, communications with low latency, high reliability, and high communication service availability, and other, not so demanding communication services, may run in parallel on the same 5G infrastructure.
The present document identifies stage 1 potential requirements for 5G communication for automation in vertical domains. The potential requirements are derived from different sources:
  • existing work on dependable communication as used in vertical domains; see, for instance, IEC 61907 [2];
  • use cases describing network operation in vertical domains with, for instance, common usage of the network (multi-tenancy) and network monitoring for assurance of service level agreements;
  • security mechanisms already used in vertical domains; supporting the specific security requirements of vertical domains;
  • new (additional to already existing stage-1 work), representative use cases in different vertical domains based on input from relevant vertical interest organisations and other stakeholders.
Furthermore, the present document provides an overview of relevant communication concepts for automation in vertical domains from the point of view of 5G systems. This overview is provided in order to facilitate the mapping between communication for automation in vertical domains and communication in 5G systems.
