Qualcomm's C-V2X Delivers Outstanding Performance for Automotive Safety
Originally published on Qualcomm's OnQ blog
As automakers and regulators move closer to complete adoption of connected vehicles, and cities and other road owners ambitiously pursue smart and safe transportation, it is important to use a high performance and practical radio technology dedicated to road safety. We at Qualcomm Technologies believe Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) is the solution going forward.
C-V2X, which includes vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-pedestrian (V2P), and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), builds on several decades of research and standardization work in wireless technologies, automotive safety, and transportation efficiency. It includes a direct communication mode, called sidelink, which allows vehicles and roadside units (RSUs) to communicate reliably and directly with each other without needing the cellular network.
