The European Spectrum Management Conference will take place virtually from June 23 – 25. The conference will provide a platform for stakeholders to come together and discuss topical issues relating to the management and coordination of spectrum policy across the region.

Attendees will have the opportunity to get involved and engage through interactive sessions, one-to-one and group networking, technology demonstrations, a virtual exhibition area and much, much more…

 

Cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) technology is a game-changer for automotive and transportation safety and services, helping to make mobility smarter, safer and more sustainable for all road users, including pedestrians.

C-V2X relies on both mobile and direct communications to enable seamless communication between vehicles, road infrastructure, and other road users, unlocking a wide range of life-saving, fuel-saving and time-saving applications. From real-time collision warnings and lane merge assistance to enhanced traffic management, pedestrian safety and automated valet parking, the C-V2X use cases shown in the video demonstrate the transformative power of connected vehicles and road infrastructure. Whether navigating urban environments or cruising along highways or country roads, C-V2X empowers smarter, safer, and more efficient journeys.

Vehicle manufacturers and road and traffic infrastructure managers are already investing in the tech that is turning these visions into reality world-wide.

Uniting the automotive, technology and communications industries in common cause, the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) is helping to drive the development and deployment of C-V2X technology as it evolves.

U-blox creates wireless semiconductors and modules for consumer, automotive and industrial markets.

5GAA’s Meeting is taking place virtually from 26 July – August 2 2021.

 

The 5GAA is proud to present the first-of-its-kind update to our comprehensive overview of cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) devices! Since our initial report in 2021, the C-V2X landscape has continued to evolve rapidly. This new edition reflects this progress, providing a fresh look at the devices currently available on the market or nearing release. This information is especially valuable for those in the transportation industry, infrastructure development, and road safety initiatives.

The report, compiled through extensive research of publicly available information, provides a clear picture of the evolving C-V2X device landscape. It highlights various types of available devices and those on the horizon. Please note that, in its current from, the document excludes factory-installed telematics/V2X boxes directly contracted by automakers.

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) has developed this position paper to reflect the automotive and connectivity industries agreement on spectrum allocation for ITS services in the 5.9 GHz band in Europe. This position builds upon findings in the 5GAA Roadmap and its study for C-V2X spectrum needs and believes that the possibility of using 20 MHz wide channels will be instrumental for the deployment of advanced connected and automated mobility use cases.

This 5GAA position paper also takes into account the updates from ETSI and CEPT and proposes a deployment band configuration for road-ITS in the 5.9 GHz band. The key elements explored in the paper are related to channelisation based on Release 1 and Release 2 C-ITS specifications, proposals for specific technologies mapping to different C-ITS services and the possibility to deploy 20 MHz channels for ETSI Release 2 specifications.
