5G Vertical Summit 2019
The CTO Maxime Flament is participating in the 5G Vertical Summit 2019, organised by 5G Forum, signatory of a Memorandum of Understanding with 5GAA.

5GAA will hold an online session on Predictive QoS and V2X Service Adaptation—PRESA
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.
Registrations are now open.

C-V2X: The Future of Connected and Automated Driving in North America 5GAA Workshop – 8 August 2019 – Toronto, Canada
The 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) is pleased to announce our next Workshop on “C-V2X: The Future of Connected and Automated Driving in North America” in Toronto on August 8, 2019. Latest developments of the Cellular-Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) technology will be presented to North American transportation stakeholders including policymakers, road traffic authorities & road operators, as well as a wide array of interest groups and industry representatives.
This Workshop is intended to advance the dialogue between high-level institutional and industry stakeholders on current challenges in the field of connected and automated driving and to provide solutions by presenting the capabilities and deployment models of the C-V2X technology in North America.
Due to limited capacity, the workshop is by invitation only. Please contact liaison@5gaa.org for more information.
The detailed workshop programme is available here.
Following the workshop, participants will have the opportunity to join a demonstration of C-V2X technology scenarios organised by our members Bell and Huawei.

Press Release: Public and Private Sectors Aligned Behind V2X Deployment, 2023 a Pivotal Year
Brussels – Today, we join together to reaffirm our continued support for the rapid, widespread deployment of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technologies in order to further improve safety on American roads. V2X, which allows communication between vehicles, infrastructure, and other road users such as pedestrians and bicyclists, provides drivers with crucial warnings necessary to improve safety. Our organizations represent the full breadth of the transportation stakeholder community and are aligned in our belief that the widespread deployment of V2X technologies can dramatically reduce crashes and fatalities on American roads for all road users.
We believe that 2023 will be a pivotal year for V2X deployment. Transportation stakeholders have aligned behind one V2X technology, cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X), clearing the way for a unified, nationwide approach to the deployment of this tool. The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) recently held a V2X Summit in which it committed to the development of a Nationwide V2X Deployment Plan, lending crucial leadership to the deployment of these technologies. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is poised to deliver much needed regulatory clarity for the deployment of C-V2X through the issuance of pending waivers to operate in the 5.9 GHz Band. Multiple stakeholders are making significant investments in CV2X today, and the waivers under consideration at the FCC are urgently needed to move forward with deployment plans.
We wish to express our appreciation for the work being done by USDOT, FCC, and the National Telecommunications and Information Administration to maintain interference-free dedicated spectrum and quickly establish the regulatory framework that will allow for widespread deployment of C-V2X. This includes the FCC first allowing near-term deployments to move forward under waiver authority, the FCC issuing a Second Report and Order that sets the final rules for the future of these technologies and protects the spectrum from interference, and USDOT adopting a Nationwide V2X Deployment Plan. As these steps are undertaken, our organizations will continue to work collaboratively to resolve remaining issues to deploy CV2X, giving drivers and other road users a critical tool to improve safety, reduce crashes, and decrease fatalities.

New 5GAA White Paper on Vehicular Distributed Antenna System
The current development of communication technologies opens up new opportunities and enables novel V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) services in the automotive area. However, specific design constraints faced by the automotive industry lead to complex implementations, as the allowed positions and mounting spaces for antennas, communication modules, and the required cabling can be very limited. These challenges commonly require vehicular-Distributed Antenna System (DAS) approaches.
This white paper provides an analysis of the motivation for and needs associated with vehicular-DAS, as well as proposals for some vehicular-DAS design solutions. In addition, it describes the implementation feasibility and potential benefits of vehicular-DAS based on measured computer simulation results, and evaluates potential vehicular-DAS impacts on current specifications.
