The automotive industry faces massive disruption from advances in autonomy and connectivity as well as the shift towards electric vehicles. Emerging technologies combined with changing customer preferences could reshape the whole market. Taking place in Detroit, the seat of the US car industry, the FT Future of the Car Summit USA will throw light on the new strategies and partnerships turning the forces of disruption into engines for growth.

5GAA will participate in the programme for this conference. To apply as a 5GAA speaker, please contact marcom@5gaa.org

5GAA is pleased to present a C-V2X Workshop for North American transportation planning and road operations communities (State DOTs, MPOs, and local agencies).
This workshop is intended to jumpstart a dialog between technology providers, cellular network operators and the transportation community on the capabilities, timeline and the potential role of cellular technologies to transportation systems management and operations (TSMO).
During the workshop, questions from stakeholders and technology providers alike will be asked and answered. In addition to valuable knowledge exchange, a primary output is to define solid next steps to realize the promise of C-V2X on our roads.

The ITS World Congress is held in Europe in the years where there is no ITS European Congress.
The Congresses provides the ideal opportunity for all stakeholders to come together, discuss and make the necessary contacts to move initiatives forward and to develop their business by exhibiting and demonstrating state of the art ITS solutions. The Congresses also showcase the latest ITS achievements from the city and region hosting the Congress, and can help increase awareness of ITS in the Host region itself.

The Mobile World Congress Shanghai, the premier industry event in China, assembles the entire mobile ecosystem and key players from the region to meet, discuss and reveal the latest innovation and technology advances in the field. In continuity with its announcement at the MWC in Barcelona, the 5GAA will pursue its involvement and will present an exciting roundtable focusing on the outstanding progress made by China with implementing C-V2X and how this will positively impact the introduction of the technology at a global level.

5GAA Roundtable |Connected Mobility in Action
Thursday 28 June | 9:00 – 13:00
Kerry Hotel Pudong, Level 3, Pudong Ballroom 5

Join us for an exclusive half-day session and hear from Chinese government officials and leaders from the automotive, technology and telecommunications companies as they share the latest updates on the deployment of the C-V2X Technology in China and the future implementation in other regions. Speakers from 5GAA member companies will present and discuss – during an exciting panel discussion – to highlight the progress made globally.

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) are pleased to announce our next Workshop and Demonstration with the support of PSA, Ford and BMW to present and showcase Cellular-Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) technology to European transport stakeholders including EU Member States Ministries, Road Traffic Authorities & Road Operators, as well as a wide array of interest groups and industry representatives.

5GAA Workshop and Demonstration

Tuesday 10 July 2018 | 09.00 – 17.30

Paris, France  

With the support of UTAC-CERAM, this interactive Workshop and Demonstration is intended to advance the dialogue between automakers, technology providers, mobile network operators and the overall transportation community on the capabilities, timeline and deployment models for Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) in Europe.This event will also showcase the most recent developments and deployment initiatives around C-V2X, paving the way towards 5G for the uptake of Cooperative, Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM).

Please email 5gaa-liaison@5gaa.org to submit your registration request* using the subject line ‘5GAA Workshop and Demo Registration Request’.

*Please note, capacity for the Workshop and Demonstration is limited, therefore we encourage you to submit your registration request as soon as possible.

We are pleased to announce that the 5G Automotive Association will plunge into the debate on technologies for road safety as it takes part in the Euractiv Forum “Safe EU Roads Thanks to Technology” as an event partner.

As the Cellular-Vehicle-To Everything (C-V2X) technology and its evolution to 5G will enable life-saving communications, the forum will be a source of debate further reinforcing the discussion on the subject. The focus will encompass the cost of deploying the C-V2X technology, the path to 5G, the challenges associated with new technologies as well as the regulations ensuing from its development.

Join us on Thursday 27 September from 17:00 to 20:00 at the Euractiv Network Office in Brussels and attend 5GAA’s CTO Maxime Flament Speech as he opens the Forum.

Register here to attend.

 

Join over 120 policymakers, experts, regulators and disruptors cross-cutting sectors such as transport, tech, telecommunications, energy and more for a full-day, highly-interactive summit in Brussels. POLITICO’s journalists will lead high-level interviews, dynamic discussions and breakout sessions

According to World Health Organization figures, more than 1.2 million casualties occur globally as a result of traffic incidents. As vehicles add more sensors to improve safety and advance the readiness of automated driving, vehicle-to-everything communications (V2X) are expected to significantly enhance road safety. As a result, global governments and industry (automotive and telecom) are carefully evaluating two different V2X technologies: IEEE 802.11p-based radio DSRC/ITS-G5 and 3GPP-based C-V2X. 802.11p is an older radio technology, based on specifications dating to 1999, and has been researched over the past decade, whereas C-V2X is a newer radio technology benefiting from many advances in communications. This 5GAA-sponsored webinar will review how each of the technologies performed in an apples-to-apples comparison, executed by Ford and Qualcomm Technologies, Inc in US lab and field testing.

This webinar will review:

1.The reliability, communication range and latency of each V2X technology under the same test conditions

2.  Performance comparison in congested environments

3. Resiliency of each technology to adverse deployment conditions, including interference

Speakers:

Steve Bell, Senior Analyst, Heavy Reading
Maxime Flament, CTO, 5GAA
Gautam Savarkar, Senior Director, Engineering, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc
Ivan Vukovic, Technical Specialist, Ford Motor Company
