NXP claims technology leadership in DSRC rulemaking comments.
As the cellular industry and standards bodies increasingly seek to support connected vehicles, the federal government is considering whether to mandate the use of dedicated short-range communications capabilities – or interoperability with DSRC – in...
Rulemaking comments for DSRC for V2V include potential for use of cellular-V2X, sharing of DSRC spectrum.
As the cellular industry and standards bodies increasingly seek to support connected vehicles, the federal government is considering whether to mandate the use of dedicated short-range communications...
The 90-day public comment period is ongoing for a proposed U.S. Department of Transportation mandate that would require automakers to include vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications in all models by 2020.
According to policymakers, the proposed rule is intended to harness technology to advance crash avoidance systems...
Breaking down the live saving opportunities of V2V
There's a lot of talk these days about autonomous driving. And, likely within the next 10 to 15 years, we will be able to have our cars take us to many locations without our having to touch...
Laird has a vision for connected highways with connected cars driving along communicating with each other to ensure the safety of their occupants. The reality is that this vision is easier said than done and requires a great deal of technology to bring it...
