How Digital Transformation Benefits the Food and Beverage Industry.

The Food and Beverage Service industry is a completely dynamic and developing industry, where Digital Transformation can create real value for businesses that distribute, deliver, and sell IoT Food and Beverage products.

Leveraging the benefits of Digital Transformation with the use of the Internet of Things, the food and beverage industry can grow to its maximum prospects. The IoT and Artificial Intelligence are helping companies to reach high levels of food safety, improve traceability, cut down wastage, and reduce costs and risks across the various stages of food processing and packaging. The main aim of the Food & Beverages Industry is to supply high-quality and hygienic food to the end consumer. The quality and hygiene of the food and beverages depend on how the food and drinks are preserved before it reaches the consumer’s vessel. In storing putrescible products like dairy products, flesh, etc we need to maintain sufficient temperature and humidity, which is great agitation for any F&B Industry. This whole thing is possible only by completely checking the food service instruments round the clock, anyhow if the workers are present,  or the storehouses are open or closed.

1. Betterment of Food Safety:

The Digital Transformation Solutions on Food and Beverages is enabled by the Internet of Things which helps companies withstand flexibility while showing the best top-of-the-line products. To monitor the temperature in vessels to make sure that food products are stored in a suitable environment, various kinds of monitoring sensors like temperature sensors, and humidity sensors are used to control necessary production state, shipping time, etc. Using the real-time temperature sensors the organizations can closely monitor the various data points in terms of food safety, assuring the live cold chain management.This activates staff to carry out and check requisite food safety check-ups when data accumulated from sensors advise potential issues or infringement. Recently, the food packaging has been tagged withvarious sensors and connected to a wide supply-chain network in the food packaging Industry which aids the inspectors with the complete tracking process and seriously minimizes the time and endeavor spent in it.

2. Smooth Operation Management:

For manufacturers, operation Management is a crucial part of each and every company, especially in the Food & beverage industry. The Operational process can be escalated and smooth by incorporating workflows and bringing down the manual processes which will connect the complete business groups and systems and streamline the processes to make the right decisions. It will also help to implement process upgrades for turning growth into profits. Apart from this, Digital Transformation has uplifted automated retailing and also helped to reduce operational costs as vending machine systems are available which recognize and recommend actions for issues related to the food or beverage, and user behavior anticipation. It will send a notification to remove outdated food on time and send reminders to replenish the machines more efficiently.

3. Distinct Supply Chain Process:

The Supply Chain Management Process gives clarity and traceability in the Food and Beverages Industry which helps to attain customer loyalty and set up credence between the business firm and the consumers. As a result, both companies and customers can trace the products. Digital Transformation can make the complete process more appropriate and eloquent. Taking an example we can describe it elaborately: If a buyer enters a supermarket and picks a bottle of honey. Using IoT and AI technology, consumers can easily track the whole retail supply chain. The QR code on the bottle gives customers the to scan and learn all details about the price of the honey, ingredients, how it was made, the date of manufacture and packing, and how it goes to the supermarket. Knowing all this information the customer can make his buying decisions and will build a rapport between the sellers and the buyers.

4. Efficient Logistics Performance:

Food and beverage companies can use the Internet of Things and Artificial Intelligence technology in their Logistics operations. The Logistics IoT Solutions not only help the Food & Beverage teams for tracking stock and inventory at the right time but are also used for shipments automation on requests or predictions for restoration.

5. Saving Energy Consumption:

The restaurant uses various appliances that consume a huge amount of electricity and it is also a big task to track each unit’s energy consumption as well as to minimize associate costs. In most cases, the main source of huge amounts of power utilization comes from older kitchen appliances. In addition to this, the risk of the sudden breakdown is higher with these appliances which causes a cluttered maintenance schedule. We can also take other cases when orders are coming and the smart fridge collects data and integrates with the Point of Sale (POS) data to operate on-order analytics and bestow with the real-time data, which permits kitchen personnel to get the exact no. of particular supplies, as a result, it minimizes energy loss from the thermal transfer.

The restaurant people can check the cause and effect situation by getting real-time information from various sources of the Restaurant; which helps to observe visibility into energy consumption and cost-per-plant places. Faststream Technologies has delivered many clients in their retail chain services, from strategy implementation to planning and service management of IoT Food and Beverage.

Faststream helped one of the clients to design a next-generation vending machine solution using IoT and AI that supports functions such as predictive maintenance, customer-centric loyalty programs, and cashless transactions, feel free to contact us for more detail at info@faststreamtech.com.

Digital Up Conversion (DUC) - An Interpolating Filter Chain

The Digital Up Conversion consists of an interpolating filter chain, a numerically controlled oscillator (NCO), and a mixer (DUC). The filter chain consists of a lowpass interpolator, halfband interpolator, CIC compensation interpolator (FIR), CIC interpolator, and CIC gain correction.

The DUC's exact Fpass and Fstop characteristics are achieved via the first lowpass interpolator. A halfband filter is a type of interpolator that lies in the center of the road. Because sample rates are lower at the start of the chain, the earlier filters might share multipliers to maximize resource utilization. When interpolating by two, the CIC compensation interpolator enhances the spectral response by accounting for later CIC droop. The interpolation factor of the CIC interpolator is high enough for filter chain upsampling.

To obtain an output sample rate of 270.83 kHz, the DUC uses an input Interpolation Factor of 2 and a decimation factor of 256. LTE receivers commonly use a sample rate of 1.92 Msps for cell search and master information block (MIB) recovery. The Digital Upconverter filters are designed particularly for this use. The DUC was created with a clock rate of 122.88 MHz in mind.

Conversion Features and Process:

70 MHz IF, 2.5.8, & 22MHz BWs (3dB)

204.8 MHz DAC Sample Rate

The modem provides a 25 kHz fine-tune step

Receiver / Exciter minimum freq step = 0.5 MHz, settling time < 100 us to 100Hz

Basebang samples are converted to 70 MHz “digital IF”

Polyphase filter approach reduces required 204.8 Msps processing to the simple data transfer

208.8 Msps DAC sample rate required to reduce DAC sinx/x roll-off

The final 2x interpolation process employs parallel FIR filters that process at a 1x rate

As a result of the quarter-wave frequency shift, the number of filter taps is reduced by a factor of two

Maintain 16 bits in/out of DDC

Complex mixer functions should keep 18 bits at the input and truncate to 16 bits at the output

Digital Upconverter share a single DDS FPGA instantiation

DUC shares the same FPGA filter structures

DIGITAL DOWN CONVERSION (DDC)

DIGITAL DOWN CONVERSION (DDC)

The DDC module is made up of a carrier selector, frequency down converter, filer, and decimator that all work together to provide a real signal. In addition to interpolation, filtering, a frequency upconverter, and a carrier combiner, a typical DUC module produces a complex signal at DC. Lower interface data rates are advised to save power, money, and high-speed logic in FPGAs/ASICs. The…
