Abstracts

The digital revolution has transformed the logistics industry into a dynamic, data-centric environment. The proliferation of the 5G network towards 6G is expected to shape the future of the logistics field by unleashing disruptive technological innovations. 6G has enormous potential, paving the way for the "Digital Continuum," a new paradigm in logistics. This concept features advanced Digital Twins working together as a unified and adaptable data-driven framework. In this work, we use Logistics Living Labs to investigate how to apply 6G technology to a Digital Continuum space. Therefore, we present an overview of 6G-driven novel applications in the intralogistics domain including their benefits, challenges, and insights into their technical setups.

Die Logistikbranche hat durch die digitale Revolution einen Wandel zu einer dynamischen, datenzentrierten Umgebung erfahren. Es wird erwartet, dass die Weiterentwicklung von 5G zu 6G die Zukunft der Logistikbranche prägen wird, indem sie bahnbrechende technologische Innovationen ermöglicht. 6G bietet ein enormes Potenzial und ebnet den Weg für das "Digitale Kontinuum", ein neues Paradigma in der Logistik. Dieses Konzept zeichnet sich durch fortschrittliche digitale Zwillinge aus, die in einem einheitlichen und anpassungsfähigen datengesteuerten System zusammenarbeiten. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird mithilfe eines logistischen Reallabors untersucht, wie die 6G-Technologie in einem digitalen Kontinuum eingesetzt werden kann. Hierfür geben wir einen Überblick über neuartige 6G-basierte Anwendungen in der Intralogistik, ihre Vorteile sowie Herausforderungen und einen Einblick in ihre technischen Setups.
