摘要

In view of the major opportunities for communication and the challenges of communication protocols in the industrial environment, it is now mandatory to review wireless communication architectures, but above all to support robust and efficient architectures inside the plant. The design of these systems differs for each application, considering the constraints of the propagation environment. In contrast to other traditional indoor environments such as residential buildings or offices, industry is characterized by its large size and the nature of its elements and obstacles. The complexity of the industrial context and the noise present in the propagation environment make it necessary to offer a robust wireless communication system to cope with the various disturbances during transmission. In this context, this paper proposes a contribution concerning a multi-protocol (Wi-Fi and LoRa) data-logger aimed at industrial communications for digital twin industrial applications. The simulation is carried out using LoRa 32 nodes, for which we have used the Node RED platform as an industrial frame management tool. The tests demonstrated bidirectional communication between a virtual PLC via TIA Portal and a supervision platform.
