Evaluation platform for 5G vehicular communications

Cellular vehicle to everything (C-V2X) communications is presented as the cornerstone for next-generation connected vehicles. C-V2X can support efficient and infrastructure data transmission, said be a key enabler of cooperative automated mobility (CCAM). Performance 5G New Radio (5G-NR) expected address bandwidth delay requirements services autonomous This theory what particular research works have showed through simulation or limited prototypes. On contrary, this work focuses on evaluating real deployments (including 5G-NR) network operators in CCAM scenarios, with emphasis cross-border settings service continuity under inter-operator handovers. The paper presents an evaluation platform gather cross-layer measurements, homogenise results, perform comparative assessment figures merit, calculate performance indicators (KPIs). evaluated implementing use case overtaking, involving two 5G-NR operator at Spanish-Portuguese border. Results reveal good performances correct operation service, thanks edge servers, although significant impact handovers detected overtaking KPIs.
