C-V2X in action
Immerse yourself in the possibilities
The C-V2X technology revolutionises the mobility ecosystem and how drivers interact with the world. It is essential to redefine transportation by providing real-time, highly reliable, and actionable information flows to enable safety, mobility and environmental applications.
5GAA established C-V2X as the critical technology to achieve the level of connectivity required for V2X communication and to be a disruptive force in the automotive market.
C-V2X Testing and Deployment
Following extensive validation testing, off-the-shelf LTE-V2X chipsets, modules, On-Board Units (OBU) and RSU (Roadside Units) have been globally available from multiple vendors since 2018.
These devices feature LTE-V2X direct communications (PC5) and LTE-V2X mobile network communications (Uu). The latest generation of devices features 5G-V2X mobile network communications (Uu) based on 3GPP Release 15.
5GAA regularly compiles an overview of the C-V2X Devices, which we understand are already publicly available on the market (the latest issue in November 2021). This overview is based on publicly available information and does not necessarily include factory-fit telematics/V2X boxes directly under contract with automakers.
The start of in-vehicle commercial deployment (i.e. type-approved vehicles) has begun in 2020-2021. A significant testing schedule is already underway for 5G-V2X, the next generation for cellular technology-based communications solutions, with more than 20 trials and early deployments globally.
Europe
Since 2010, the Directive on Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) regulates the framework for the deployment of these systems in the field of road transport and for interfaces with other modes of transport. In December 2021, the European Commission published a proposal to amend the ITS Directive. The proposal was reviewed by the European co-legislators at the end of 2022 and adopted in October 2023. The revised Directive aims to take account of technological developments including connected and automated mobility, on-demand mobility applications and multimodal transport.
European administrations have designated the bands 5855-5875 MHz and 5875-5925 MHz – for use by road ITS as specified. As is common practice in Europe, the spectrum is designated on a technology neutral basis.
2021-2027: The Connected Europe Facility (CEF) proposes 5G infrastructure along connected and automated mobility corridors. This will see a fast ramp-up of 5G network deployment along main transport paths and the private sector, with support from the CEF.
United States
In November 2020 the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) published its 5.9 GHz ruling which points to C-V2X as technology of choice, among the following lines:
• Allows C-V2X in upper 30 MHz after an expedited waiver process
• DSRC will move to lower 10 MHz until the end of the phasing-out period (one year from the effective date of the Report & Order)
• FCC puts a spotlight on OEMs to bring V2X to the finish line
In December 2021, industry and state DOTs submitted a join request for a waiver to deploy C-V2X in upper MHz of the 5.9 GHz band; in April 2023, the FCC decided to permit initial deployments.
In August 2024, the U.S. Department of Transportation released it V2X National Deployment Plan, outlining a roadmap to accelerate the adoption of V2X technology for enhanced road safety. Developed in consultation with 5GAA and other stakeholders, the plan focuses on ensuring interoperability, encouraging investment, and prioritising privacy, and sets short-, medium-, and long-term goals to achieve widespread deployment.
In November 2024, the FCC announced final spectrum rules allowing in-vehicle and roadside units to operate Cellular-Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) technology in the 5.9 GHz spectrum dedicated to ITS, and providing a two-year timeline for sunsetting the use of existing Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) based technology.
China
China was the first country to have a national strategy for the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). To demonstrate the potential benefits of connected and intelligent highways and urban roads, more than 90 cities have already partnered with local wireless network operators to deploy RSUs and China has opened up over 5.000km of roads for intelligent V2X pilot demonstration.
In 2019, 13 OEMs announced mass production of C-V2X cars as of 2020. As of 2022, there are at least 12 C-V2X equipped vehicle models already launched in China.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology also established dedicates C-V2X spectrum in the 5905-5925 MHz band.
In 2024, the Chinese government launched a pilot project of “Vehicle-Road-Cloud Integration” Application for Intelligent Connected Vehicles. In Jully 2024, the final list of list of 20 cities was determined. The project will be implemented until 2026.
South Korea
The South Korean Government released an updated C-ITS plan in August 2021, including a plan to deploy dual mode RSUs on a trial target area of 2,400km express highway for pre-commercial service in 2023.
In South Korea, 70 MHz is allocated as ITS spectrum in the 5.9 GHz band. In March 2022, the Ministry of Science & ICT (MSIT) released the following spectrum policy for the 5.9 GHz ITS band.
- 5855-5875 (20 MHz) – LTE-V2X
- 5875-5895 (20 MHz) – Guard and Experiment band
- 5895-5925 (30 MHz) – DSRC
In December 2023, South Korea selected Cellular-Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) direct communications as its technology of choice, complimenting C-V2X mobile network communications to offer a synergetic platform for connected mobility.
Following this decision, in June 2024, the Korean Ministry of Science & ICT (MSIT) released the final technical regulation standard.
- 5855-5875 (20 MHz)- LTE-V2X
- 5875-5925 (50 MHz)- Reserved for future study
- DSRC should be turned off by June 2027.
Japan
In its 2020 revisions of the Frequency Action Plan, Japan’s Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications (MIC) developed a tangible plan toward the opening of 5.9 GHz for ITS by 2023. In 2023, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications released its Frequency Reorganisation Plan, which assigns the 5.9 GHz spectrum to V2X for next-generation ITS.
This followed various studies conducted in Japan (such as the Cross-Ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion Programme’s (SIP) study on use cases for Cooperative Driving Automation), which identified new spectrum as a requirement for automated driving.
In 2024, the Japanese government initiated a new trial for the 5.9 GHz band, focusing on an automated truck demonstration experiment on the Shin-Tomei Expressway. Building on the results of this trial, the government plans to begin standardization of 5.9 GHz V2X communication in 2026, with the goal of achieving practical implementation by 2030.
India
Over recent years, India has witnessed increasing activities related to V2X. These include updated traffic management system standards introduced by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) and the recommendation by the Indian government to include V2X in the Bharat NCAP. Moreover, in December 2023, the Telecommunications Standards Development Society of India (TSDSI) organized a workshop titled “Autonomous Road Transportation for Indian Scenarios.” Where they explored the global perspective on Connected Vehicles and Autonomous V2X use cases, India’s vision for Connected Autonomous V2X, and the challenges, opportunities, and readiness of the country in adopting these technologies.
The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways is actively considering the use of advanced technologies such as 5G and C-V2X to reduce road accidents.
In October 2023, the Indian Government’s Telecommunication Engineering Centre (TEC) published a report endorsing C-V2X technology. In October 2024, TEC established a dedicated Task Force to drive the development and implementation of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) across India.
