Abstract

This paper explores the integration of Smart Resource Flow (SRF) wireless platform with the EmKoI4.0 Orchestrator to enhance industrial network management in Industry 4.0 environments. We examine how the EmKoI Orchestrator, which utilizes Asset Administration Shell for dynamic reconfiguration of 5G Non-Public Networks, can function as an SRF Service Manager to optimize wireless resource allocation. The integration leverages the Central Coordination Point framework specified in IEC 62657-4 for industrial wireless coexistence management. Our approach establishes a multi-layered coordination mechanism where the SRF Field Manager handles localized resource allocation while the EmKoI4.0 Orchestrator provides high-level network adaptation based on application requirements, regulatory constraints, and environmental factors. The paper presents the theoretical framework for this integration and outlines an evaluation plan to assess performance improvements in practical industrial scenarios.
