We participated in the 4th ETSI C-V2X Plugtests™!
Direct communications between vehicles, pedestrians, and infrastructure — based on 3GPP and ETSI TC ITS standards — were tested during the 4th C-V2X Plugtests™ interoperability event in Malaga, Spain. The event was held in partnership with the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) and hosted by DEKRA.
We were proud to be among the 24 participating companies and 82 experts contributing both onsite and remotely. Over 60 test scenarios were executed with an impressive 94% success rate, validating the maturity and interoperability of Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) and ITS technologies.
The event showcased advanced safety use cases, such as Collective Perception Message (CPM) and Vulnerable Road Users (VRU), both demonstrating the interoperability of C‑ITS platforms with Public Key Infrastructures (PKIs).
In parallel, vendors of On‑Board Units (OBUs), Roadside Units (RSUs), and PKIs conducted interoperability tests to validate their implementations and ensure compliance with ITS standards.
As an event partner, 5GAA hosted a workshop on the C‑V2X ecosystem and the implications of ETSI ITS Release 2. The workshop brought together key stakeholders from governmental bodies and industry leaders to discuss 5G‑V2X advancements, emerging security challenges, and the current progress in integrating Advanced Driving Systems (ADS) and Automated Driving Systems (ADS).
