Companies verify initial C-V2X tests based on
3GPP Release 14
Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS), a leading technology
company that helps enterprises, service providers and governments
accelerate innovation to connect and secure the world, announced
that the company is working with Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. and
SGS to help advance testing of cellular vehicle-to-everything
(C-V2X) technology.
The three companies focused on test cases covering radio
frequency (RF) and radio resource management (RRM) performance
verification of devices used for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V)
deployment scenarios. The test cases, based on 3rd generation
partnership projects’ (3GPP) Release 14 specifications, support
C-V2X test plans prescribed by the OmniAir Consortium and the
Global Certification Forum (GCF). In August 2020, SGS used
Keysight's RF/RRM DVT & Conformance Toolset and the Qualcomm®
Snapdragon™ Automotive 4G Platform to verify initial test cases at
the certification company’s lab in San Diego. The Snapdragon
Automotive 4G Platform is a product of Qualcomm Technologies,
Inc.
“Keysight’s collaboration with Qualcomm Technologies and SGS
will help accelerate timelines for the wider automotive industry to
adopt reliable communications protocols and technologies, helping
to shape the future of transportation, logistics and mobility,”
said Lucas Hansen, senior director at Keysight Technologies. “We’re
pleased to support the C-V2X ecosystem with conformance test
solutions that support both GCF and OmniAir validation
criteria.”
The automotive industry is in the process of implementing C-V2X
technology to improve safety for drivers and passengers in moving
vehicles, as well as pedestrians in transit.
“As a result of the advancements in C-V2X tests and field
trials, we’re witnessing a surge in the technology needed in
vehicles that support real-time information sharing which is
critical to deterring accidents, avoiding obstacles and
broadcasting road-condition updates,” said Prashant Dogra, vice
president, engineering at Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “The
Snapdragon Automotive 4G Platform features integrated C-V2X and
global navigation satellite system technology designed for precise
timing and location.”
“These key working relationships, such as the one we’ve
established with Keysight and Qualcomm Technologies enable SGS to
deliver effective products and services that meet our clients’
evolving requirements,” said David Chu, vice president for CRS
Electrical & Electronics at SGS. “As the first test house to
complete initial C-V2X testing supporting both OmniAir and GCF test
plans, SGS is well-positioned to serve an ecosystem of device
makers with timely certification services.”
“Our members, including Keysight, Qualcomm Technologies and SGS,
will contribute to the verification of new C-V2X test cases at the
upcoming OmniAir Global Plugfest, to be held across six test
laboratories in Europe, Asia and North America, from September 28th
to October 15th,” said Jason Conley, executive director of OmniAir
Consortium. “Towards the end of 2020, OmniAir will incorporate over
three hundred test cases into a new, independent third-party C-V2X
test and certification program.”
Keysight's conformance test platforms enable hardware and
software providers to validate compliance of C-V2X devices to
standards set by 3GPP. Keysight's connected car solutions support a
wide range of technologies, including 5G, C-V2X, DSRC and GNSS, to
improve reliability, cybersecurity and safety in an increasingly
complex world.
