Connected Car
author: FutureCar StaffMovandi, a developer of 5G millimeter wave (mmWave) technology, announced on Monday a successful demonstration of a new technology that uses mmWave repeaters to support uninterrupted 5G-powered vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. In most typical 5G coverage areas, next-generation Node B (gNB) base stations are often deployed 500 meters apart. Movandi's BeamXR powered mmWave repeaters extend continuous coverage and also provide a smooth handoff between gNBs to maintain continuity. But mmWave 5G enables a low latency and high throughput data stream needed to deliver connectivity and services to connected vehicles. "Broader deployment of high-performance, low-latency mmWave technology is a key component to expanding 5G adoption for connected and autonomous vehicles," said Moorhead.
