• The challenge

    Creating accurate and responsive virtual models of physical objects and devices

Determining what modifications will optimize physical products and systems can be time consuming and costly. Current virtual modeling processes may lack near real-time data inputs needed for generating accurate, ongoing and responsive projections.

Efforts to create more sophisticated models, like digital twins, of real products and systems may need near real-time data and could require costly infrastructure, networks and IoT sensors. 

  • Transform predictive maintenance.

    Digital twins could transform how businesses optimize and perform predictive maintenance of products, machinery and systems.

  • 5G opportunities

    Gain powerful insights from a 5G-powered digital twin.

5G has the latency and throughput to capture near real-time IoT data and support digital twins.

5G could allow you to experiment, test and optimize the digital twin before implementing on the physical operation.

A 5G-enabled digital twin could handle the massive volume of data needed for an accurate analysis in manufacturing operations.

5G could also create increased flexibility with IoT deployment and configuration for a digital twin refinement.

Cómo funciona

    • What a digital twin could do for an aircraft engine design

      • An engineer sits at a computer monitoring and testing an aircraft engine’s digital twin.



      • The near real-time updates inform the engineer of the engine’s performance, issues and anomalies.



    • What a digital twin could do for an aircraft engine design

      • The physical engine is located in a manufacturing facility.
      • The engine has sensors in key locations that could send data in near real time utilizing multi-access edge computing (MEC) via a 5G network, enabling updates to the digital twin.



    • What a digital twin could do for an aircraft engine design

      • The engineer could simulate the engine’s life cycle and material stresses in various real-world environments and conditions virtually, with rapid testing and optimization.
      • 5G and MEC can deliver low latency and high bandwidth to capture data in near real time, helping with performance modeling and optimizations prior to physical implementation.
