Keynote 1 : V2X Communications for Autonomous Driving - Roadmap for WiFi-V2X and Cellular-V2X

Jérôme Haerri, Shailesh Patil
Chair: Renato Lo Cigno (University of Trento, Italy)

The automobile industry is going through a transformative change and moving towards autonomous driving. Such autonomous cars will be equipped with several sensors such as radar, LIDAR etc. We will discuss the need for and the value of V2X communication in presence of such sensors, before addressing the benefit of V2X communication to enable and/or enhance autonomous driving. We will then present the current technologies and standards for V2X communication (WiFi-V2X and Cellular V2X), and introduce their roadmap. We will conclude with preliminary concepts of coexistence and market introduction.

Connected and autonomous vehicle (CAV) deployment is rapidly accelerating; as cars become loaded with sensors and artificial intelligence, the need for connectivity between vehicles and from the vehicle to infrastructure and networks is increasing as well. In this panel, we will have experts from both ITS-G5/DSRC and 3GPP/Cellular-V2X present the current state of work in V2X communication and where research and development is headed over the coming years.
After initial statements from the panelists the discussion will be open to audience questions and comments.

Keynote 2: Connected Car and Digital Transformation

Giuliana Zennaro
Chair: Claudio E. Casetti (Politecnico di Torino, Italy)

The society demand of seamless connection is a key aspect to be considered in each technological domain. The automotive industry can be a part of this paradigm, giving its own interpretation. Being connected while driving is a different way of being part of the network, e.g in terms of contents and technologies. New technologies are coming, opening new opportunities. Among them, the digital transformation.
