5GAA live demos show C-V2X as a market reality (part 1) |
|
Turin, 14 November, 2019 (APA/OTS) - Smart mobility technology is a reality today, with 'Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything' (C-V2X) allowing connected vehicles to communicate with the cloud, directly with each other and their surroundings. Deployment plans are primarily sustained by the global trend in the automotive industry to adopt 4G LTE cellular technology, followed by the emerging 5G high-speed low latency communications. Beyond infotainment, C-V2X will capitalize on vehicular and smartphone connectivity to contribute to better safety, less congestion and reduced emissions. |
During a live demo event in Turin, the 5G Automotive Association
(5GAA) showcased ready to deploy use cases in the streets of the
city and a sneak preview of what the future has in store on the
renowned Lingotto rooftop test track.

Prominent members and partners of the 5GAA including Audi,
Continental, Ericsson, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Harman Samsung,
Marelli, Pirelli, Qualcomm, TIM and Vodafone demonstrated the
current state of C-V2X and the road to future, Vehicle-to-Vehicle
(V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I), and Vehicle-to-Network (V2N)
applications based on 4G LTE and 5G. "Connected mobility is a market reality." says 5GAA Chief
Technology Officer, Dr. Maxime Flament. "The use cases demonstrated
in the streets of Turin are planned for deployment with a huge
industry momentum based on the evolution path to 5G capabilities." Using both direct short-range communications and mobile networks,
the open-road demonstrations showcased the extensive capabilities of
today's C-V2X technology, ready for deployment. To name a few:
- Protecting vulnerable road users, for instance, by alerting
drivers about a pedestrian at a crossing using LTE-connected
infrastructure.
- Smoothing traffic by allowing public authorities and road
operators to provide real-time warnings to drivers in urban
environments concerning roadworks or speed limits, via the network.
- Preventing incidents at dangerous intersections or in the event
of unexpected braking, thanks to C-V2X direct-short range
communications between vehicles.
The track demonstrations at Lingotto underlined the enhanced safety
benefits that can be expected thanks to the versatility of 5G and
the wide range of services it enables. To name a few:
- Vehicles will geo-tag dangerous areas for the following cars or
provide 'see-through' functions to avoid dangerous overtaking.
- Pedestrians will be detected directly via their smartphones and
surrounding vehicles will be warned.
- In case of accidents, emergency services will be able to
visualize the situation live using on-board cameras of surrounding
vehicles, improving response times and providing emergency
responders situational awareness prior to arriving at the crash
scene.
Furthermore, Intel showcased an "In Vehicle Entertainment" demo at
the Museum, in collaboration with Marelli, TerraNet and Equinix,
showing how Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) can support immersive
high-definition (HD) entertainment for all occupants of a moving
vehicle, including video streaming, gaming, virtual reality (VR),
office work, online education, advertisement.
A short summary on each of the 5GAA C-V2X use cases, demonstrated
today in Turin
Demo 1 "Vulnerable Road Users": open road demos on safety In this trial - which is part of Torino Smart Roads Initiative
patronized by the Municipality of Turin - TIM, Links Foundation and
Luxoft showed how the communication between the various actors
moving along the roads can help in detecting potentially dangerous
situations. The goal of the demos was to demonstrate how the 5G
mobile network facilitates the protection of Vulnerable Road Users:
pedestrians ("Presence of a pedestrian on a crosswalk") and cyclists
("Presence of a connected bike on the road"). In the case of a
pedestrian approaching a crosswalk, a Roadside Unit connected to the
mobile network, equipped with a camera able to detect the event,
sent a warning message to the nearby connected vehicles (I2V
communication). In the case of a connected bike and a connected
vehicle that are approaching each other, the two vehicles received a
warning message about their presence when a risk of collision is
detected.
Demo 2 "Urban Georeferenced Alerting" in open roads TIM, FCA, Links Foundation, City of Turin with 5T, and Politecnico
di Torino showed how the Local Traffic Authority in Turin intends to
notify drivers in real time of possible dangers and special
situations on the road (traffic jam, road works warning, dynamic
speed limit, etc.). A standard geo-referenced warning message was
dispatched to a TIM AMQP broker" at the edge of the 5G mobile
network and only the involved vehicles received the geo-localized
message from the AMQP Broker using the TIM 5G Network. The warning
was read and displayed in an FCA vehicle through the on-board HMI
and can for instance notify the driver of upcoming speed reduction.
The aim of the trial was to demonstrate how the TIM 5G Network is
suitable for realizing smart roads services for connected cars. The
solution is compliant with the standards so it can be applied in
other locations covered with mobile networks.(continues)

5GAA live demos show C-V2X as a market reality (part 2) |
|
Turin, 14 November, 2019 (APA/OTS) - |
Demo 3 Intersection Movement Assist (IMA), Forward collision Warning
(FCW) FCA and Harman Samsung showcased two Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V)
demos, by integrating C-V2X direct-short range communication into
Maserati Levante and Quattroporte. The vehicles, through a direct
radio link (network-less radio link), anonymously communicated basic
information such as their position and related direction. The Forward Collision Warning (FCW), detected possible frontal
collision and warned the driver accordingly. The Intersection
Movement Assist (IMA), assisted the driver at the cross junctions to
avoid a possible lateral collision with an oncoming vehicle.
Demo 4 Emergency Electronic Brake Light (EEBL), Stationary Vehicle
Warning (SVW) FCA, Continental, and Qualcomm demonstrated fast and reliable
information exchange between vehicles in emergency situations. The
two demos are based on C-V2X direct-short range technology, enabling
Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communication between two Jeep Renegade.
There were two portions to this demo:
- "Stationary Vehicle Warning" (SVW): when the hazard lights are
activated, the application broadcasted a message to all nearby
vehicles so that approaching vehicles could be informed even if the
hazard was not visible.
- "Emergency Electronic Brake Light warning" (EEBL): in the event
of a sudden braking, the application broadcasted a message to
following vehicles, such that approaching vehicles were notified of
the potentially dangerous situation.
Demo 5 See-through Vodafone, FCA, Vodafone Automotive, Marelli and Altran revealed the
'See Through' that uses C-V2X long-range cellular network
communication to exchange streamed video in real time between
vehicles, extending the driver's visual range under obstructed
visibility scenarios and to prevent accidents, especially those that
may occur in an overtaking phase. The two involved Jeep Renegades
vehicles were equipped with a connectivity solution (Marelli) and
high frame-rate cameras (Marelli Motorsport) to detect the road
lanes. A real time tracking system and a space mapping algorithm of the
vehicles, specifically developed by Vodafone Automotive, allowed
Vodafone's Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) to dynamically manage
and route the video flows on the basis of the vehicles' relative
positions and to ensure minimal end-to-end latency in the interest
of drivers' safety. Vodafone 5G ultra-low latency and high
reliability were paramount to ensure the flow and synchrony of the
real-time video exchange between vehicles, also under high traffic
and cell saturation conditions.
Demo 6 World-first 5G-enhanced ADAS services Audi, Ericsson, Italdesign, KTH, Pirelli, Qualcomm, TIM and Tobii
showed how smart cars, commercial 5G smartphones and 5G networks
jointly improve comfort, safety and efficiency. This unique
collaboration combined the power of eye-tracking glasses,
intelligent tires, in-vehicle augmented reality and 5G phones to
work together over a live 5G network. With its high capacity and low
latency, cellular 5G connectivity is ready to enable instantaneous
cooperation between vehicles, the IoT ecosystem and more advanced
driver assistance services. The live demonstrations at the Turin
Lingotto test track were based on TIM's commercial 5G network
delivered in Turin in partnership with Ericsson. Audi cars, equipped
with Pirelli Cyber Tyre, and embedded 5G modems provided by Qualcomm
and available 5G smartphones were utilized to enhance pedestrian's
safety.
