MWC Barcelona 2019 is where over 100,000 of the tech industry’s innovators and influences will gather to explore how Intelligent Connectivity will shape the future of our digital experiences, our industry, and our world from 25 to 28 February 2019.

This time again, the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) will lead the field of connected mobility by participating in the Congress. On Wednesday 27 February 2019 the association will host a morning session with leading automotive and telecommunications companies Worldwide. This a great opportunity to get updates and important insights from key industry players.

Following its participation at MWC Barcelona 2018, 5GAA is proud to continue the facilitation of such thought leadership platforms for relevant stakeholders, driving towards building a better mobility ecosystem.

Join us on Wednesday 27 February 2019 from 09:00 to 13:00 in Hall 8.0 Theatre F.

The 5GAA work item BRIDGE aims to determine how Communications Service Providers (CSPs) can support the C-ITS/V2X expectation of Road Operators in the near future to encourage and accelerate the deployment of C-ITS use cases on the road.

Following on from a series of discussions with European Road Operator strategists, a set of four exemplary C-ITS use cases was identified with a view to understanding what might be required from CSPs to achieve the above-mentioned objective. Additionally, a set of possible network requirements were defined and short-listed. Modelling showed that all of the use cases can be delivered on existing mobile networks today, assuming network coverage is sufficient for Road Operator requirements.

Find out the rest on this 5GAA Technical Report.

The present report contains the third volume (Volume III) of 5GAA WG1 agreed use case (UC) descriptions for Use Cases developed within the 5GAA and consolidated in WG1. The results and conclusions of this report, and of the future use case descriptions and related communication requirements, are intended to serve as input for the work of other WGs in 5GAA, as well as sources for input and feedback to standardization activities, e.g., in 3GPP.

The conference will take place on the occasion of the Transport, Telecommunications and Energy Council (4-5 Dec), and in the context of the substantial and ongoing work that the Commission is involved in around the Europe on the Move package, amongst others.

The programme will include Mr Hololei, Director-General for Transport and Mobility, European Commission and Mr Hartog (Head of Unit for Smart Mobility and Living, DG CONNECT).

WCX™ World Congress Experience is a mobility industry’ annual event taking place from 9 to 11 April 2019 for forward-thinking engineers, executives, OEMs, suppliers, decision-makers, disruptors and the entire spectrum of the mobility-engineering field. Experience three days of expert-led technical education, peer-to-peer networking, a technology-driven exhibit floor and global mobility solutions that are shifting the marketplace. From IoT, Big Data and connectivity to automated and unmanned vehicles, and from safety, blockchain and powertrain to sustainability and cybersecurity, WCX covers every corner of the industry.

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) will be present at SAE WCX and be involved in different sessions on Wednesday 10 April 2019:

– C2C “Cloud and Car Enabled Digital Services” panel discussion with CTO Maxime Flament – 2:10 to 3:20 pm

– Learning Lab C-V2X use on the road for safety and efficiency – Exhibition Floor, 3:30 to 3:50 pm

– Learning Lab C-V2X momentum and commercial readiness – Exhibition Floor, 4:00 to 4:20 pm

You can also find 5GAA and meet up at our lounge located in the Connect 2 Car Pavilion, n°1307 (map available here).

Following on the recent publication of a technical report on the Predictive QoS and V2X Service Adaptation (PRESA) Work Item, the 5G Automotive Association is hosting an online session on Friday, January 27, from 3:00 to 4:30 PM (CET).

The session, “V2X Application Adaptation based on Predictive QoS Changes”, will be led by Huawei’s Antonio Consoli and Alimi Hamidian, and Tencent’s Lei Yixue. As the leading contributors to this publication, they will present the highlights of the PRESA technical report on enhancing the framework for V2X application adaptation when a QoS change is predicted in the network.

The three speakers will explain the methodology for analysing V2X use cases that use predictive QoS information to enable V2X application adaptation for the vehicles, as well as the coordination between 3GPP and 5GAA to promote end-to-end solutions and standards for QoS prediction and V2X application adaptation.
