5G for Cooperative Connected and Automated Mobility: towards more safety and efficiency

5G-MOBIX French Trial site Demonstration & Seminar

The 5G-MOBIX project aims to evaluate the added value of 5G connectivity for connected and Automated Mobility (CAM) services and functionalities in cross-border conditions.

5G-MOBIX trial sites include two Cross-Border Corridors (Greece-Turkey and Spain-Portugal) and six local Trial Sites in France, Germany, Netherlands, Finland, China and South Korea. The local sites bring additional and complementary insights to the cross-border trials. The French Trial Site contributions are related to service continuity and dynamic communication quality aspects for the infrastructure-assisted advanced driving use case.
