The indoor factory has larger space and there are a lot of metal machine tools distributed in it, which makes its radio propagation characteristics and corresponding channel models significantly different from those of the indoor office and indoor hotspot. To support the design and the evaluation of the IIoT techniques, the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) released the first 5G IIoT standard model in October 2019. In this article, we give a detailed explanation of this IIoT model and compare it with other indoor models. First, we introduce the standardization of 3GPP IIoT channel model and its motivation. Second, four IIoT subscenarios, which are classified according to the clutter density and antenna height, are described. Third, the potential frequency bands of 5G IIoT are summarized. Fourth, the models of channel parameters, including the path loss and the line-of-sight (LOS) probability, the root mean-square (RMS) delay spread, and the angular spread, are given. Among them, the models of path loss and LOS probability take the antenna height and clutter density into consideration. The model of RMS delay spread changes from frequency-dependent to volume-dependent in order to catch the size variation of factories. Finally, two newly added key channel characteristics, dual mobility and absolute time of arrival, which help to describe the robot movement and positioning, are also presented. 收起
