Connected cars are increasingly complex

Automotive connectivity and infotainment

Testing the increasingly complicated selection of wireless interfaces for performance, compatibility and interoperability

Connected vehicles offer a wide range of vehicle applications based on the 2G, 3G, 4G and upcoming 5G standards. From infotainment features to vehicle manufacturer applications with backend communication (e.g. OTA firmware updates) to automatic emergency call (eCall), more and more services are becoming available in vehicles. Vehicle-to-everything (V2X, V2V, V2I) communications will play a crucial role in achieving full autonomous driving.
