New Study: Over 50% of New Cars Will Have V2V Capabilities by 2022Juniper Research has released a new study that predicts over half of the new cars sold by 2022 will have vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications hardware to accommodate growing autonomous vehicle marketA new report from Juniper Research has revealed that, by 2022, 50% of new vehicles will be shipped with V2V (Vehicle-to-Vehicle) hardware, a technology that enables real-time short-range communication between vehicles. 5G will play a pivotal role in the future of the V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) communications. Low latency, high bandwidth and wide coverage will be the key enabler of new services such as in-vehicle audio streaming and V2I (Vehicle-to-Infrastructure) services, such as safety and weather warnings for drivers. As the complexity of these services increases, Juniper estimates that future automotive technologies, including autonomous systems, could each consume up to 1 terabyte of data per day. Research author Sam Barker added: “For V2X to meet future expectations, development must continue on the premise that 5G will be the underlying connection. This will be underpinned by increasing cross-industry collaborations such as the 5G Automotive Association." Source: Juniper Research media announcement |
