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.

WASHINGTON D.C., March 7, 2024 – Our organizations, representing the full breadth of the U.S. transportation stakeholder community, fully share the Biden Administration’s commitment to ensuring that connected vehicle technologies operate in a way that is safe and secure, and which protects users’ privacy. We applaud the Department of Commerce and Bureau of Industry and Security for recognizing the many benefits of connected vehicles and noting that its recent Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking does not intend to imply that lifesaving technologies such as vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications are unsafe for use in the United States. According to the latest estimates from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 42,795 people died in motor vehicle traffic crashes in 2022. We continue to face a national crisis of traffic deaths on U.S. roadways, and we firmly believe that V2X technologies, which allow communication between vehicles, infrastructure, and other road users including pedestrians and bicyclists, can dramatically reduce crashes and resulting fatalities. V2X technology can also help advance climate and sustainability goals by increasing traffic flow and efficiency. We reaffirm our continued support for the rapid, widespread deployment of V2X technologies.

We note that all V2X systems have been designed from the outset with privacy and security in mind, and that V2X has been deployed for a wide variety of use cases in states across the country without incident. Our members have worked closely with U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) for several years to proactively develop a robust message security solution for V2X communications. This collaboration has produced a security system that ensures V2X safety messages contain no personal or equipment-identifying information and that utilizes encryption and certificate management methods to limit data collection and prevent unauthorized vehicle manipulation. Privacy and security are also key pillars of our members’ ongoing collaboration with USDOT on the development of a National V2X Deployment Plan. We also note that the supply chain for connected vehicle technology, including V2X direct, is mature, geographically diverse, and not dependent on any particular region or country.

The United States is currently a leader in V2X innovation, but risks falling behind if the government hampers broadscale deployment. We urge the Department of Commerce to work closely with transportation stakeholders to ensure that any resulting regulations that address national security risks are narrowly tailored to minimize unintended consequences or significantly disrupt industry efforts to deploy lifesaving safety technologies.

We look forward to working collaboratively with all stakeholders on this matter to ensure the safe and effective deployment of V2X technologies.

5GAA is hosting its upcoming workshop, ‘Enabling New Services with Next Generation ITS in Japan,’ in the context of its 29^th Meeting Week. The event will take place on February 1st at the Hilton Tokyo, between 9AM and 1PM JPT.

In response to the recent release of Japan’s Frequency Reorganisation Plan by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, assigning the 5.9 GHz spectrum to V2X for next-generation ITS, this workshop aims to explore the potential implications and opportunities. 5GAA welcomes the decision, which aligns with global spectrum allocation.

The workshop will delve beyond technicalities, offering insights into recent government activities, ongoing development efforts, and expectations for new ITS in Japan. It will also serve as a convergence point for local stakeholders and global industry players, encouraging collaboration and setting the stage for a fruitful discussion Japan’s future in this domain.

The technical report, jointly developed by the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) and the Connected Motorcycle Consortium (CMC), focuses on C-V2X-enabled use cases for powered two-wheelers with a focus on safety aspects. This includes use cases enabled by external connectivity or sensors (e.g. from roadside infrastructure and/or network, not only V2V-based). It also covers use cases that may profit or be enabled by the presence of an external computing power, which represents an attractive potential market even with low V2X penetration.

The report first addresses the use cases with a technologically neutral description in terms of PC5 and Uu connections, then identifies specific solutions enabled by Edge Computing, Mobile Devices and 5G-V2X.

This Technical Report and guide originated from a coalition of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) deployment stakeholders, first recruited from the Crash Avoidance Metrics Partners (CAMP) and the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA). This group rapidly grew to include the Utah Department of Transportation, the National Electrical Manufacturers; infrastructure owners and operators, NEMA, OmniAir, ITS America, and University of Michigan researchers.

The guide aims to provide “Day One” with a simple reference. It focuses mostly on IOOs for roads, reflecting a collective opinion that was initially influenced by the Original Equipment for vehicles, IOOs and their suppliers, traffic equipment makers, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), and others who want to usher the safety and efficiency benefits expected from the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS).

This document focuses on V2X solutions using C-V2X direct communications. Read the full report here.

The present document focuses on the issue of trustworthiness in relation to position information exchanged in the context of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication. In order to start the analysis, this work has been focusing on Day-1 applications to understand the problem in the context of the current standard.

The document provides an overview of the current standards related to positioning, including the integrity of the position and confidence levels, and reviews the definitions and metrics used so far. It then provides an analysis of the gaps in the current/available V2X standard related to the confident use of such positioning information.

The landscape of existing positioning techniques is constantly evolving to promote safe driving. In particular, automotive use cases can be very diverse. New features introduced in wireless standards or new technologies are not necessarily always focused on automotive use cases and would require specific evaluation scenarios.

Moreover, the positioning performance depends on various factors. This technical report aims to identify and evaluate a selection of evolving and emerging technologies for positioning in line with the 5GAA roadmap for automotive use cases.
