Abstract: Main technical challenges faced by 5G TSN are proposed, including high-precision time synchronization, low latency and deterministic forwarding, and high reliability connection. ZTE Corporation develops a series of innovative technologies, and a number of proposals have been adopted by 3GPP, such as the propagation delay compensation based on timing advance (TA) and round-trip time (RTT), enhancement of CG/SPS configuration, and method based on uplink survival time. At the solution implementation level, the smart NIC technology is introduced, and the solution adaptable to various industrial Internet is also considered. These technologies and solutions have further promoted the development of 5G TSN. At the same time, ZTE Corporation has made some progress in the end-to-end practice with telecom operators and industrial partners in 5G TSN.
