5G-V2X onward

Connected mobility

5G-V2X onward

C-V2X and its evolution to 5G V2X will foster synergies between the automotive industry and other verticals moving towards 5G. Its extreme throughput, low latency, and enhanced reliability will allow vehicles to share rich, real-time data, supporting autonomous and connected driving experiences.

​5G technologies are the next generation of wireless networks. It is key to transmitting more extensive amounts of data more reliably, with lower latency and at faster speeds than ever before.​

C-V2X is the next generation telematics that can support new automotive deployments and build a new transportation ecosystem for the future. 

The C-V2X technology is already available but to support the autonomous vehicles of tomorrow, the technology must evolve to meet more demanding safety requirements. 5G will facilitate this evolution. Its extreme throughput, low latency, and enhanced reliability will allow vehicles to share rich, real-time data, supporting fully autonomous driving experiences.​

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) is shaping the path to 5G by supporting C-V2X, as well as working to deliver innovations in on-device intelligence and integration in connected vehicles. The 5GAA is confident that a technically superior standards-based cost-effective and scalable access technology from the cellular industry will carry C-ITS and Connected Vehicle applications well into the 5G era and beyond.​

Supporting Innovation: C-V2X Use Cases

Under its current Work Programme, 5GAA seeks to leverage today and tomorrow’s innovative C-V2X solutions
for a safer, greener and more efficient transportation system, benefiting all road users.

STARDUST

Stardust is an H2020 Smart Cities project, which brings together exemplary models of smart, highly efficient, intelligent, and citizen-oriented cities. The project focuses on intelligent solutions for energy, mobility and ICT, to be integrated into cities together with innovative business models. One of its objectives is to create and deploy open city information platforms, that allows cities to engage actively with each other and to share information. The project’s results will serve as a blueprint for replication across Europe and abroad.

National Projects

ConVeX 

Funded by the German Ministry of Transportation and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI) in the program  “Automated and Connected Driving on Digital Test Fields in Germany”, the objective of the project ConVeX is to set up a testbed for the first field tests of 3GPP LTE Release 14 Cellular V2X (C-V2X) and validate its performance and feasibility.

GOVERNANCE

Driving the Future
of Connected Mobility Solutions Together

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) is comprised of the Executive Committee, the Board, the General Assembly, and the Working Groups. Together, the different bodies ensure the successful running and operations of the association.

General Assembly

The General Assembly ensures a diverse Board composition regarding geographic regions and industry sectors.

Board

The 5GAA Board supervises and advises the Executive Committee in all material respects, particularly concerning strategic considerations. The Board is composed of eighteen members, elected by the General Assembly every year, out of which:

– twelve seats are reserved to platinum members (the highest member category);
– six seats are reserved to candidates elected among the gold members.

About us

Driving the Future of Connected Mobility Solutions Together

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) is a global, cross-industry organisation of companies from the automotive, technology, and telecommunications industries (ICT), working together to develop end-to-end solutions for future mobility and transportation services. Created in September 2016, 5GAA has rapidly expanded to include key players with a global footprint in the automotive, technology and telecommunications industries. This includes automotive manufacturers, tier-1 suppliers, chipset/communication system providers, mobile operators and infrastructure vendors.

Christoph Voigt – 5GAA Chairman

5GAA was created to connect the telecom industry and vehicle manufacturers to develop end-to-end solutions for future mobility and transportation services.

Christoph Voigt – 5GAA Chairman

Mission

5GAA unites the automotive, telecommunication, and technology industries globally, turning collaboration into real-world, scalable connectivity solutions that deliver smart, safe, secure, and efficient mobility for all road users, now and in the future.

A visionary roadmap

What we do

5GAA is addressing today’s mobility key challenges. With C-V2X technology, 5GAA will revolutionise the mobility ecosystem and the way drivers interact with the world. 5GAA’s ambition is to improve the overall transportation industry to make it safer, greener and more efficient for vehicles, road users and the surrounding infrastructure.

Smarter

Sustainable

Safer

5GAA has defined 4 strategic pillars designing the short and long term goals in very diverse domains contributing to the same ambition: Connected Mobility.

5G Automotive Association (5GAA) to participate in the Global Certification Forum (GCF) online conference “C-V2X Certification and the Roadmap to Connected Mobility.”

5G Automotive Association (5GAA) to participate in the Global Certification Forum (GCF) online conference “C-V2X Certification and the Roadmap to Connected Mobility.”

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) is glad to announce its participation to the Global Certification Forum (GCF) webinar “C-V2X Certification and the Roadmap to Connected Mobility” on 6th October 2021, at 4 pm CEST.

The event will bring together industry experts from vehicle manufacturers, equipment vendors, test houses and certification authorities to discuss why certification is key to the effective rollout of C-V2X systems and how it can be implemented successfully now.

Maxime Flament, 5GAA Chief Technology Officer, will hold a session to disclose the current standard landscape and the global market opportunities for connected vehicles. Moreover, he will join a panel discussion on the GCF’s C-V2X certification programme and how it will benefit several actors of the connectivity ecosystem.

High-speed wireless communications between vehicles and infrastructures, especially cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) communications, are crucial for the development of autonomous vehicles. Proven interoperability between C-V2X devices is essential to ensure the safety and reliability of such systems.

Since 2019, 5GAA and GCF have been collaborating to investigate the principles and framework for a certification programme – designed specifically for C-V2X technologies. A few months ago, the two partners went one step further by signing a new agreement on a programme that will support the drive for interoperability, reliability, and safety of emerging cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) systems. A programme that will enable manufacturers to certify their C-V2X capable products – including onboard units (OBU) and roadside units (RSU) – for C-V2X PC5 Mode 4 functionality, thus providing a trusted foundation for C-V2X applications globally.

Join the webinar to discover more about the progress to the full interoperability, reliability and safety of emerging C-V2X systems.
