5GAA is proud to be again a partner of the European Telecommunications Standard Institute (ETSI) in the second C-V2X-only Plugtests™ event, to take place remotely from 20 to 31 July 2020.

This interoperability test will be held with the support of the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA).

Registrations are open until 12 June. For any further information, please consult the official event page.

 

5GAA is co-hosting a webinar with GSMA on 1 July on “How Can C-V2X Create an Environment that Improves Quality of Life for Everyone?”

In this non-technical session, the CTO Maxime Flament will join the panel to discuss how C-V2X can enable more efficient driving and deliver improved road safety for all traffic participants:

• The socio-economic benefits of connected vehicles for people and the environment (V2P/V2I)

• The seamless evolution for V2X from 4G to 5G

• C-V2X trials and use cases

• C-V2X state of the market and deployment roadmap

Global update: autonomous vehicles

In this session, the Director-General Johannes Springer will provide listeners with a global update on when and how we will start to see this technology appear in our lives.

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) will participate in the European edition of the ITS World Congress and will be part, alongside its members, of the discussion with global stakeholders in the field of connected mobility. This year, the event will take place from 11 to 15 October 2021 in Hamburg and will allow to “Experience Future Mobility Now.”

ITS World Congress is the world’s largest and most prominent event focused on smart mobility and the digitalisation of transports. It aims to underline the importance of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) and raise awareness of smart mobility solutions among policy makers, experts, and the general public. It will be a great opportunity to present the latest developments in ITS and enjoy networking opportunities.

Smart mobility and Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are crucial constitutive elements of 5GAA, as the association helps shape technological advances in the field. Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITS) are the technologies associated with connected vehicles. These technologies, enabled by wireless transactions (V2X), would have a crucial impact on road safety and traffic efficiency. 5GAA supports the idea that 5G will be the ultimate platform to enable C-ITS and the provision of V2X.

5GAA and its members will be involved in different activities, and Maxime Flament, the association’s CTO, will contribute to the following panels:

-Ubiquitous 5G deployment for CCAM: observations and lessons learned
-Efficient communication networks for road and rail corridors
-The Age Of 5G – Enabling Future Mobility

Further details will come in the following weeks.

 

 

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) will participate in the IAA Mobility Conference 2021 that will take place from 7 to 12 September in Munich. IAA Mobility is the leading global platform for the mobility industry and brings together actors from the entire mobility chain.

Following the guiding theme “What will move us next” the discussion will focus on how automation, connectivity, and smart city solutions will drive our progression to a more sustainable and effective mobility.

The event will provide an excellent platform to discuss the future of mobility with relevant stakeholders of the transport ecosystem.

5GAA will be active at two occasions:

9 September 2021 10.30 AM CEST

5GAA will hold a Master Class session. A great opportunity to engage in cross-industry exchange, present our expertise in an educational format, and discuss last updates and automated mobility by demonstrating the capabilities and deployment models of the Cellular Vehicle to Everything (“C-V2X”) technology.

10 September 2021, 11.45 AM CEST

5GAA will be present with its own Speaker Corner in the Business Club House, located in the central area of the exhibition. During 90 minutes our association and its members will have the opportunity to have speakers discuss the latest topics on connected mobility, as well as enjoy networking opportunities.
