Abstract

With the advent of the fourth industrial revolution i.e. Industry 4.0, plants and factories are becoming smarter and interconnected. The transitions demand vertical integration and seamless connectivity. For this purpose, there is a need for semantic communication between various devices including the heavily resource-constrained field devices. To address this, a real-time capable hardware-based implementation of a well-established semantic communication protocol, i.e. OPC Unified Architecture was designed and developed. This chip-based implementation is power-efficient and compact, making it suitable for the field level. The chip was analyzed and incorporated in a demonstrator as a proof of concept of its integration at field level in a plant module of the process industry. Various opportunities are also examined where the chip could be utilized to deliver benefits to existing and future technologies.
