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 5G...
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...
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...
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...
Smart sensors provide object classification and state estimation (position, speed, etc.) in real time. In the 5GMED project, the introduction of Artificial Intelligence-based smart sensors on the network might suppose stringent requirements for the network edge, including the necessity to process real-time video feeds. The video below shows a solution...
Cellnex and Comsa, 5GMED's partners, were invited last week at the Mobile World Capital Barcelona Foundation to present the project in front of start-ups from the 5G TURBO Acceleration Programme Demo Days. The event, co-founded by EIT Urban Mobility, is a...
