Breakthrough Proof of Concept for Automated Driving Applications
Securing reliable, low-latency data performance is key to the future growth of automated driving applications, securing peak performance of the technologies required to deliver attractive uses for both industry and consumers.
New mobility options, such as enhanced safety features, for consumers is one of the solution’s most exciting outcomes, paving the way for safer roads for everyone.
The trial successfully used Ericsson‘s User Equipment Route Selection Policy (URSP) network slicing feature, which dynamically selects and connects to multiple slices simultaneously, together with a Quality of Demand (QoD) Network API. The QoD was used to request a defined QoS level from the network. When combined, these features meet the demands of mission-critical applications under various load conditions.

As ADAS systems evolve low latency, high throughput, and secure connectivity will become indispensable. For many emerging automotive use cases such as automated driving, reliablenetwork connectivity is crucial. The trial showed that even in congested conditions, where many users are sharing the limited resources of the mobile network, the automated driving function was consistently served with the necessary bandwidth resources.
The solution also opens the door for many other uses applying safety-related features, remote control functions, such as remote door opening/closing, and assisted and automated driving features.

Enrico Salvatori, SVP & President Qualcomm Europe/MEA, Qualcomm Europe, Inc., says: “We are proud to be part of this project, utilizing Qualcomm Technologies’ long-established expertise in 5G and wireless innovation to help enable advanced features like 5G network slicing for reliable interoperability and improved quality-of-service. We look forward to continue collaborating with partners across the automotive ecosystem to usher in the next generation of autonomous driving applications.”
Marc Vrecko, Business Group President, Valeo Comfort & Driving Assistance Systems, says: “Communication between infrastructure and vehicles is a safety-critical element. Automated Valet Parking, developed in cooperation with BMW Group and tested with Deutsche Telekom, relies in part on Valeo software and systems both embedded in the car and installed in the parking infrastructure itself. Testing 5G interfaces jointly with Deutsche Telekom convinced us of the performance of cellular networks. To make mobility safer and smarter, Valeo has integrated advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) into one of the main focuses of its innovations.”
