About
Thorge Lackner is a leading researcher at the intersection of 5G communications and intralogistics, pioneering the integration of advanced wireless technologies into Industry 4.0 environments. His primary research areas encompass 5G standalone non-public networks (NPNs), autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and decision-support frameworks for industrial applications. Lackner’s major contributions include the first comprehensive measurement and comparison of data rates and time delays for end-devices in licensed sub-6 GHz 5G standalone NPNs, a study that has garnered 25 citations and established foundational benchmarks for industrial wireless performance. He has also authored a seminal review on AMRs in intralogistics, cited 19 times, which critically assesses state-of-the-art technologies, identifies limitations, and outlines key research gaps for future development. Notably, his decision-support framework evaluates the practicality of 5G for intralogistics use cases, providing a structured methodology for industry practitioners. With a growing citation impact and work published in high-impact venues, Lackner is shaping the future of smart manufacturing by enabling reliable, low-latency wireless connectivity for autonomous material transport and dynamic factory environments.
