Enabling connected mobility via reliable and low-latency communication

Abstract

Modern vehicles integrate hundreds of embedded devices forming complex wired on-board networks. Many of these on-board networked systems are successfully fulfilling stringent system and communication requirements, such as deterministic and very low end-to-end latency and jitter, zero packet loss due to congestion, and tight synchronization between data producer and consumer. These requirements are addressed by ongoing standardization efforts, such as the ones developed by the IEEE Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) task group. In this talk we explore the main technologies enabling future CCAM services and applications. In particular, we describe the main standards, recent advances, and open challenges of wireless Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communications and wired intra-vehicle networked systems. We also discuss the main challenges that such isolated wired on-board networks face when opportunistically exposed to other similar networked systems via a wireless interface in a highly dynamic manner. Finally, we discuss the potentials of mixing TSN wired networks and besteffort wireless networks for V2X.
