INTRODUCTION
The overall market for wireless communication solutions spans a range of diverse applications,
with differing performance and functional requirements. Within this overall market, the industrial
automation domain could include:
• process automation, covering for example the following industry branches:
– oil and gas, refining,
– chemical,
– pharmaceutical,
– mining,
– pulp & paper,
– water & wastewater,
– steel,
• electric power such as:
– power generation (for example wind turbine),
– power transmission and distribution (grid),
• factory automation, covering for example the following industry branches:
– food and beverage,
– automotive,
– machinery,
– semiconductor.
Industrial automation requirements for wireless communication systems are different from those
of, for example, the telecommunications, commercial and consumer markets. These industrial
automation requirements are identified and provided in IEC 62657-1.
Industrial premises can contain a variety of wireless communication technologies and other
sources of radio emissions.
This document is intended for designers and persons responsible for production and process
plants, system integrators and mechanical engineers having to integrate and start up wireless
systems in machines and plants, and producers of industrial wireless solutions. In particular, it
is intended to motivate exchange of information between automation and radio engineers.
Many wireless industrial automation applications are also located in physical environments over
which the operator/owner can exert control. That is, within a physical facility where the presence
and operation of all radio emitting devices are under the control of a single entity. This allows
wireless management strategies to be employed which are not feasible for equipment installed
in public or other unmanaged areas.

– 10 – IEC 62657-2:2022 © IEC 2022
In industrial automation, many different wireless communication systems can operate in the
®1
same premises. Examples of these communication systems are IEC 62591 (WirelessHART ),
IEC 62601 (WIA-PA) and IEC 62734 (ISA100.11a). All these communication systems use
IEEE 802.15.4 [28] for the process automation applications. Other examples of wireless
communication systems are specified in IEC 61784-1 and IEC 61784-2 CPs that use
IEEE 802.11 [25] and IEEE 802.15.1 [26] for factory automation applications. Different to wired
fieldbuses, the wireless communication devices can interfere with others on the same premises
or environment, disturbing each other. Other sources of radio energy in these bands, often at
high energy levels, include radiated process heating, plastic welding, plasma lamps, and
microwave irradiation devices.
Clearly, without a means to manage the coexistence of these varied emitters, it would be
problematic to ensure that wireless systems meet the time-criticality and other performance
requirements of industrial automation.
This document describes the management of independent radio sources that use the same
transmission medium. The management within a wireless communication system is not the
subject of this document. It is assumed that the standard of a wireless system regulates it, for
example by a medium access control mechanism.
The IEC 62657 series has four parts:
• Part 1: Wireless communication requirements and spectrum considerations
• Part 2: Coexistence management
• Part 3: Formal description of the automated coexistence management and application
guidance
• Part 4: Coexistence management with central coordination of wireless applications
IEC 62657-1 provides general requirements for industrial automation and spectrum
considerations that are the basis for industrial communication solutions. This document
specifies the coexistence management of wireless devices to ensure predicable performance.
It is intended to facilitate harmonization of future adjustments to international, national, and
local regulations.
This document provides the coexistence management concept and process. Based on the
coexistence management process, a predictable assuredness of coexistence can be achieved
for a given spectrum with certain application requirements. This document describes principles
to manage the potential mutual interference that might occur due to the operation of multiple
wireless devices in a plant.
This document provides guidance to the users of wireless systems on selection and proper use
of wireless systems. To provide suitable wireless devices to the market, it also serves vendors
in describing the behaviors of wireless devices to build wireless systems matching the
application requirements.
This document is based on analyses of a number of International Standards, which focus on
specific technologies. The intention of this document is not to invent new parameters but to use
already defined ones and to be technology independent.

1 Scope
This part of IEC 62657:
• specifies the fundamental assumptions, concepts, parameters, and procedures for wireless
communication coexistence;
• specifies coexistence parameters and how they are used in an application requiring wireless
coexistence;
• provides guidelines, requirements, and best practices for wireless communication's
availability and performance in an industrial automation plant; it covers the life-cycle of
wireless communication coexistence;
• helps the work of all persons involved with the relevant responsibilities to cope with the
critical aspects at each phase of life-cycle of the wireless communication coexistence
management in an industrial automation plant. Life-cycle aspects include: planning, design,
installation, implementation, operation, maintenance, administration and training;
• provides a common point of reference for wireless communication coexistence for industrial
automation sites as a homogeneous guideline to help the users assess and gauge their
plant efforts;
• deals with the operational aspects of wireless communication coexistence regarding both
the static human/tool-organization and the dynamic network self-organization.
This document provides a major contribution to national and regional regulations. It does not
exempt devices from conforming to all requirements of national and regional regulations.
