Microsec is a trust service provider we provide high quality services for E-Szignó business solutions based on the technology of electronically authentic documents and documents with probative value, as well as electronic signature (PKI).

In recent years, 5G communication standards have started systematically addressing the wireless communication requirements of vertical industries such as the automotive sector.

The development of 5G communications systems for vehicular use cases, referred to as 5G-V2X, has enabled several automotive services that significantly improve the level of safety, efficiency and comfort experienced by traffic participants. In this context, joint efforts from stakeholders in telecommunications and transportation play an essential role in making these services a reality.

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA), a cross-industry organisation, has over the past five years devoted significant time and effort into better understanding the use cases and requirements for developing technical solutions, carrying out trials, building business models and market strategies, and fostering multi-industry consensus among relevant communication standards organisations.

Such an endeavour is bringing end-to-end mobility solutions based on common understanding and setting the stage to support their smooth rollout in several regions.

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.

Marben is the global leader of communication solutions for the Telecommunication, Transportation and Automotive markets.

The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) welcomes the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) decision to authorize initial deployments of Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (“C-V2X”) technology in the 5.9 GHz band to 17 entities, including 12 State Departments of Transportation (DOTs), Macomb County, City and County of Denver and to the University of Michigan.

“We have been eagerly waiting for this second FCC action to grant these 17 entities permission to deploy life-saving C-V2X technology in the United States, including the University of Michigan, which is also one of our members,” said John F. Kwant, Executive Director, Americas, for 5GAA. “This action extends the geographical jurisdiction for C-V2X deployment and represents a key milestone to achieve widespread deployment of this state-of-the-art vehicle safety technology.”

In December 2021, a group of automakers, state departments of transportation, and equipment manufacturers jointly filed a Waiver Request asking the FCC to waive its 5.9 GHz band rules to permit them to immediately deploy C-V2X technology. Following this joint filing, more than 17 entities requested waivers under the same conditions.
