Date: 2022- 01- 24   

Recently, the first underground 5G wireless network of China Coal Group was established in Wangjialing Coal Mine and passed through the performance test. This network is an important part of the intelligent tunneling system, designed by China Coal-Huajin Group in cooperation with Tianjin IT Institute for Underground Engineering. Up to now, the construction of underground 5G core network and 5G coverage of underground electricity transform stations in Panel 121 have been completed, and the installation of 5G for intelligent tunneling system is in progress. The functions for intelligent tunneling operation can be realized, such as one-button to start and stop of machines, remote control, self-adaptive cutting of roadheader, automatic anchoring with drillers, and processes of excavation, anchoring and transportation at headings after completion of 5G systems and installation and operation debugging of intelligent tunneling equipment in Wangjialing Mine.
