Product Discription Summary

The Cellular-to-Vehicle Everything (C-V2X) chipset is the latest innovation that compliments development of future vehicles. Developed by Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., it is aimed at increasing road safety and enhancing autonomous drivability. The C-V2X comprises of two types of communication modes between vehicles and devices: direct communication and network-based communication. It is compatible to utilize the current 4G/5G network to access vehicle infotainment system and telematic applications, such as DriveWell. However, in the absence of the 4G/5G network, it’s direct communications capability enables the vehicle to identify any obstruction or near collision with pedestrians and also communicate with other vehicles by using its 5.9GHz Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS) band. This eliminates the necessity of reliance on the existing network infrastructure to exchange vital information. The direct communication capability acts like a redundancy in such situations. With the data, it enhances vehicle and pedestrian situational awareness and is able to anticipate any situation. The C-V2X has the potential to save lives and improve safety in all aspects.
