Success Case
V2X-Arch (2015-2017)
Transport and logistics
Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) analyses the use of communications technologies in order to improve the efficiency of the transport systems, and it’s considered a key field for the development of new services and sustainability models in the future smart cities.
In Europe, under the umbrella of the standard ETSI ITU-G5, a stack of protocols of communications and services for V2V communications (vehicle to vehicle) and V2I communications (vehicle to infrastructure) have been recently developed. This technology is expected to considerably increase traffic safety and its efficiency and sustainability.
Taking as starting point the state-of-the-art of the technology and the existing market solutions for V2X (vehicle to vehicle or vehicle to infrastructure), Cellnex has set to reach these targets:
- Definition of architectures and technologies for the deployment of V2X services, possibly including newly hybrid architectures that combine multiple technologies.
- Thorough analysis of use cases and services related to V2X communications, and recommendation of reference architectures and technologies for each use case. It will also be provided an analysis of the business models for the different services considered.
- Experimental validation of the proposed architectures, including the deployment of V2X-specific infrastructure in a proving ground that will make possible to validate realistic traffic scenarios.
