Simulation and Verification of Wireless Technologies

Wireless technology in vehicles, often located in a telematics and connectivity unit (Telematics Control Unit (TCU)) that uses integrated or external antennas, is becoming increasingly important for safety, traffic efficiency, and entertainment features. The standards of the 3^rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) have been developed, now defined as 5G. At the same time, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) or vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) technologies, which use different standards, have continued to gain market attention. Therefore, there is a need to investigate the applicability of the simulation and verification methods developed within SIVERT, even for these emerging technologies that may be part of future TCUs.
