Deployment band configuration for C-V2X at 5.9 GHz in Europe

This position paper describes 5GAA’s view on deployment band configuration for C-V2X in the 5.9 GHz band. It is our view that the C-V2X industry needs to agree on a commonly applied and unique deployment band configuration for C-V2X direct communications in the 5.9 GHz band. With such an agreement, C-V2X equipment can be configured identically in all vehicles for operation in the 5.9 GHz band, thereby paving the way to interference-free operation of ITS services across Europe.
The deployment band configuration outlined in this paper addresses the initial deployment of C-V2X technologies.
