C-V2X Shows Promise but Needs More Spectrum: 5G Americas

Cellular-vehicle to everything is taking off, though more spectrum is needed in the U.S. to assure success, 5G Americas said Wednesday. The FCC allocated 30 MHz in the 5.9 GHz band, but at least 40 MHz is needed, according to the 5G Automotive Association, the white paper said. It stressed the importance of making C-V2X secure. “With any form of communications technology, there is always the risk of cyberattacks,” the paper said: “C-V2X was created from the start with security and privacy in mind.”
