Technical Report: Safety Treatment in Connected and Automated Driving Functions, Phase 2
The 5GAA Technical Report on Safety Treatment in Connected and Automated Driving (STiCAD II) documents the latest findings on enhancing safety in V2X-enabled automated driving. Building on the first STiCAD work item, this report explores additional use cases requiring safety treatment, such as sensor sharing and automated valet parking, and introduces a simplified functional safety analysis approach. A key focus is the mutual trust concept, covering technical, organisational, and certification aspects essential for reliable V2X communication. The report also examines potential standardisation contributions and network reliability enhancements.

Automated Valet Parking Technology Assessment and Use Case Implementation Description
The 5GAA Technical Report on Automated Valet Parking (AVP) Type-2 outlines the technological framework and implementation details for driverless parking systems. It explores the role of Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication, cellular public networks, Stand-alone Non-Public Networks (SNPN), and PC5 Direct Communication in enabling seamless and secure AVP operations. Key aspects include system architecture, interoperability, security, and deployment considerations. The report emphasises standardisation to ensure cross-vendor compatibility and provides recommendations for optimising network performance. Serving as a reference for automotive and telecommunications stakeholders, it offers actionable insights into scaling AVP solutions while addressing critical safety and operational challenges.

5.9 GHz Second Report and Order: Frequently Asked Questions
To support the transportation community in navigating the FCC’s Second Report and Order on the 5.9 GHz band, 5GAA has published a comprehensive FAQ document. This resource provides detailed guidance on the transition to Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) technology and the final operational rules by outlining key regulatory changes, technical specifications, and compliance timelines—addressing topics such as equipment authorization, licensing requirements for Onboard Units (OBUs) and Roadside Units (RSUs) and channelization standards. The document also includes step-by-step appendices for obtaining equipment authorization and RSU licensing.

5GAA leverages today’s and tomorrow’s mobility solutions
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), roughly 1.25 million road traffic fatalities worldwide in 2013, with another 20–50 million injured or disabled through traffic accidents. Vehicles sharing information make transportation safer, greener, and more enjoyable are at our doorstep. The technologies associated with this concept are collectively known as Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITS). The impact on road safety alone is sufficiently significant to make C-ITS a priority.

Official Announcement: 5GAA Members and USDOT Partner for Live C-V2X Demonstrations
The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) is pleased to support a joint demonstration of Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) technology by the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) and several 5GAA members.
The event will take place on February 5-6 at the Federal Highway Administration’s Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
In partnership with 5GAA members Audi, Verizon and Autotalks, these live demonstrations will underscore the potential of C-V2X technology to protect all road users, improve traffic flow, and create a more unified transportation system. Participants will also witness how C-V2X direct and mobile network communications complement each other, with the potential to enable 360° awareness.
This marks the first dedicated event of its kind and reaffirms the commitment from industry to support the USDOT in deploying lifesaving V2X technologies. The insights gathered from these demonstrations, as well as from 5GAA’s conference and concurrent roundtables, will inform the path forward for nationwide deployment.
5GAA welcomes this opportunity to work alongside USDOT and key stakeholders, laying the groundwork for continued collaboration to drive innovation and accelerate mass-market adoption of C-V2X for safer, smarter mobility across the United States.

Gearing Towards Advanced V2X Use Cases: the impact of ETSI Release 2 standards
In partnership with 5GAA and with the support of the European Commission and European Free Trade Association, DEKRA is hosting the 4th ETSI C-V2X Plugtests™ event at Parque Tecnológico in Málaga, Spain from 10-13 September.
During the week, ETSI and DEKRA will enable On-Board-Units (OBUs), Roadside-Units (RSUs) and Public Key Infrastructure (PKIs) vendors to run interoperability test sessions to assess the level of interoperability of their implementation and validate the understanding of the standards. This edition of the Plugtests will focus on direct communication between devices using ETSI TC ITS Release 2 standards, including Collective Perception Services (CPS) and Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs).
5GAA will organise a half-day workshop on 11 September to bring together some key players in the C-V2X ecosystem and discuss the impact of ETSI Release 2 standards. The speakers will provide insights on the future of C-V2X for the automotive industries, while the workshop’s technical agenda will demonstrate progress made on 5G-V2X Direct, ETSI Release 2 messages and security.
