The European Union launched in November 2018 and September 2020 seven 5G cross-border corridor trial projects for large-scale testing of 5G enabled Connected and Automated Mobility (CAM) solutions over cross-border sections of motorways, rail, waterways and ports across 11 borders. These projects are part of the European Commission’s 5G Public...
Have you ever wondered what's the impact of 5G on autonomous vehicles? The automobile industry is witnessing exponential growth of self-driving features, and the trend is expected to continue. 5G network connections together with other technologies will have a major role to play in the development of self-driving cars, making...
Europe is preparing a large-scale deployment of 5G cross-border corridors for Connected and Automated Mobility on European transport paths. The benefits for future mobility are many, but what about the challenges to be faced? Cellular coverage and radio access aspects + Service and Session continuity aspects: A fundamental requirement is cellular radio...
Will fully autonomous vehicles ever arrive? Today's 4G LTE network can't allow it, because it doesn't have the ultra-reliability nor the ultra low latency, but a 5G network can make autonomous vehicles a reality. Watch the video below to discover more! https://youtu.be/8H2DcT5BXYk
According to the European Transport Safety Council, the road deaths in the EU27 in 2021 were reduced collectively by an unprecedented 13% compared to 2019. The United Nations (UN) is working to improve through attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda highlighting five primary functions to...
With the evolution of 5G, the automotive and telecommunication industries are working to create a Connected, Cooperative and Automated Mobility (CCAM). Connected vehicles are enabling easier, safe and hassle-free road traffic while bringing vehicle infotainment to the next level. 5GMED will demonstrate advanced CCAM and Future Railway Mobile Communications System services...
Vehicles are becoming more and more autonomous and smart traffic systems are closer to become a reality. But which technology is better to create connected cars? The choice is between the existing Wi-Fi standard called DSRC (Dedicated Short Range Communications) or CV2X (Cellular Vehicle to Everything), that would eventually use...
European countries and industry are cooperating to prepare the large-scale deployment of 5G corridors for Connected and Automated Mobility on European transport paths. The European Commission defined digital cross-border corridors, where vehicles can physically move across borders and where cross-border road safety, data access, data quality and reliability, connectivity and...
Nearby Computing, the Edge and 5G Orchestration and Automation platform company based in Barcelona, Spain, and 5GMED partner, has achieved to have four of its product features recognized as innovations by the Innovation Radar of European Commission, two of them developed in the context of 5GMED. Angelos Antonopoulos, the Innovation Director,...
This report, by the European Union Agency for Railways, assesses how the further removal of technical and operational barriers at European cross-border sections would contribute to the attractiveness and competitiveness of rail transport. Four case studies were selected, two for freight and two for passenger rail transport. The analyses present...
