Enhanced Positioning Accuracy and Coherent Situational Awareness by Connected Sensors and Positioning as a Service
The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) is proud to release a new Technical Report titled “Enhanced Positioning Accuracy and Coherent Situational Awareness by Connected Sensors and Positioning as a Service.” The report provides an overview of positioning technologies for Connected Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) and explores how complementary positioning solutions can work together to enhance accuracy and reliability.
Developed under the ConSens (Connected Sensors) Work Item, the report examines how cooperative information exchange between vehicles, networks, and infrastructure can enable new and improved localization techniques. It introduces a new service concept allowing traffic participants to request positioning improvement services from the 5G network and infrastructure, described in conjunction with a digital twin approach for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). The report also presents implementation examples and assesses potential business models for such services.

5GAA Demonstrates the Future of Driving in the U.S.: From Tolling to Satellite Connectivity
Sacramento, USA, February 5, 2026 – From satellite-enabled voice calls to automated connected vehicle tolling and real-time road hazard alerts, the future of connected mobility was on display as the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) brought next-generation vehicle connectivity technologies into real-world operations on U.S. roads.
5GAA hosted the Conference “Advancing Connected Mobility in California: C-V2X and Connected Vehicle Infrastructure,” which featured a keynote by Toks Omishakin, California’s 4th Secretary of Transportation.
The demonstrations highlighted innovations in V2X tolling, non-terrestrial networks (NTN), and safety and awareness and brought together leading automakers, telecom operators, technology, and solution partners to showcase solutions in real-world environments.
“The Sacramento demonstrations represent an important milestone for connected mobility in the United States”, said 5GAA Chairman Christoph Voigt. “Seeing these technologies in action underscores how our members are delivering practical, interoperable solutions that enhance safety, connectivity, and mobility for drivers and communities”.
The live demonstrations showed how connected tolling can streamline travel. 5GAA members, including Audi, Autocrypt, Cohda Wireless, Ettifos, Indra, Microsec, Qualcomm, Valeo, Verizon, and Volkswagen, together with partners FHWA Saxton Transportation Operations Laboratory (STOL), and Kapsch TrafficCom, demonstrated both Network C-V2X (Verizon’s Edge Transportation Exchange, MEC/5G solution integrating with STOL’s CV-MEC and Kapsch) and Direct C-V2X 5.9GHz-based tolling solutions (Audi, Indra, Cohda Wireless and Microsec in one demonstration, while Valeo showcased a solution integrated with CV-MEC and Kapsch). Vehicles approaching simulated toll zones securely exchanged information with roadside units and completed seamless transactions – illustrating how connected tolling can improve efficiency while supporting safer traffic flow.
The demonstrations also highlighted the power of connectivity beyond terrestrial networks. BMW, HARMAN, Qualcomm, Viasat and Fraunhofer showcased NTN satellite technologies, including a live bi-directional voice call over Narrowband IoT networks and satellite-enabled communications. These demonstrations illustrate how vehicles and connected devices can remain fully operational in remote areas, ensuring critical services are maintained even in difficult environments.
C-V2X enabled safety and awareness solutions technologies were another highlight, with HARMAN, Miovision and Qualcomm showing how connected vehicles can help drivers anticipate dangerous situations on the road. The demonstrations included real-time traffic signal information and road hazard alerts, while AI-enabled roadside sensor systems shared information via Direct C-V2X about unequipped vehicles and other road users to support safety-critical services and improve protection of vulnerable road users
The Sacramento demonstrations underscore the association’s mission to accelerate the deployment of connected technologies, showing how future seamless connectivity is being accomplished today.

5GAA welcomes the 5G Strategic Deployment Agenda for Connected and Automated Mobility on Roads
The Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU) releases the 5G Strategic Deployment Agenda for Connected and Automated Mobility (CAM) on Roads
The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) welcomes the publication of the 5G Strategic Deployment Agenda for Connected and Automated Mobility on Roads (5G SDA for CAM). The 5G SDA for CAM provides guidance to stakeholders involved in the deployment and use of 5G for CAM systems on roads. This rich and diversified ecosystem includes mobile network operators, tower companies, telecom vendors, road operators, as well as vehicle manufacturers (OEMs) and their tier1/tier2 automotive suppliers.
The SDA outlines the implementation strategy for the deployment of 5G connectivity infrastructures along the major European road transport networks (TEN-T corridors), or “5G corridors”,enabling advanced CAM use cases and 5G commercial services with uninterrupted coverage and seamless service provision at border crossing areas.
Further guidance is provided on investment, definition of cooperation models and deployment roadmaps that will facilitate the roll-out of six service categories: Road CAM services, Logistics, Digital Twins, Connected Passenger Services, Software-defined Vehicles and Associated vertical services.
Approved by the SNS JU Governing Board, the 5G SDA for CAM on roads aligns with the Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU) mission to coordinate pan-European 5G corridors and guide the second Connected Europe Facility programme, Digital Part (CEF2 Digital).
In that respect, the5G SDA builds on best practices and lessons learnt from the first waves of 5G corridor deployment projects co-funded under the second Connecting Europe Facility programme, Digital Part (CEF Digital), between 2022 and 2025, involving 31 works and study projects.
