The beginning is shared with 5G on the Hyundai Mobis test site in Seosan what KT has built the infrastructure for. There, the sharing of the network has also begun to develop technology for the car.
The sharing and deployment of the new 5G cellular standard is used for real-time navigation and communication of the vehicles. This is also a key element in Autonomous driving, The cooperation should go beyond the 5G network, however, there were no further details in the source,
Unlike 4G transmissions, data is transmitted over the 5G network in near real time. The map update is faster. But so that the data is always up to date, the sensors of the vehicles are evaluated. That’s what Hyundai Mobis is working on. Related tests are being undertaken with the Autonomous Driving Test Car, the M.Billy. Hyundai Mobis wants to 2020 become the leading supplier of sensors for autonomous driving.
In addition, vehicle communication is used to convey information about the traffic infrastructure. These include, for example, the inclination of the curves or the traffic light displays. These data are used for predictive driving and are intended to be used Liquefy traffic, The transmission takes place via the 5G network of KT. In South Korea The commercial launch of 5G has already begun, albeit only for the industry.
