3. Create a Scalable and Replicable Model to replicate a real-world Industry 5G Private Network
setup, consisting of 5G Radio and Core systems that are compatible with Edge/Cloud IT/OT
applications.

Way forward:

1. To Explore development of High-Resolution Video & IoT Applications: The lab focuses on providing
reliable, high-speed, low-latency wireless connectivity to support mission-critical applications in
the coal mining sector, such as smart mining, predictive maintenance, and real-time monitoring.

2. To Explore Implementation of next generation advanced use cases like Mines Digital Twin,
Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) in Coal
industry to optimize the various field operations and productivity.

Benefits to Coal Industry:

By connecting a wide range of IoT applications, including surveillance cameras, sensor-integrated
machines, predictive maintenance systems and automated machinery, CIL will benefit from real-time data
exchange, improved decision-making, and streamlined operations. The implementation of a 5G network
by Coal India Limited (CIL) will significantly enhance the efficiency, safety, and sustainability of its mining
operations. As the network is Private captive network, the data generated during the operations lies with
CIL.
