TTIA Signed the MOU with OmniAir to Promote the C-V2X-Based Connected Vehicle Technologies

TTIA Signed the MOU with OmniAir to Promote the C-V2X-Based Connected Vehicle Technologies

 

Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MOTC) has designated the Danhai region as the first 5G open test field in Taiwan in 2019. The test field is intended to become a framework for mutual internet-based communications among vehicles, roads, people and devices. During this project, Taiwan Telematics Industry Association (TTIA) has cooperated with HwaCom and several local partners to set up the experimental field in Danhai New Town. TTIA also published the “Traffic Controller to Roadside Open Standards” (TCROS) Ver. 1.0 in Taiwan in November, 2021. It is the result of close collaboration between technical service, the industries and TTIA fostered by the MOTC.

 

To take next step forward and make Taiwan a pioneer in the competition of smart city and the transportation technology. TTIA signed the memorandum of understanding with OmniAir Consortium, Inc. on June 2, 2022, to promote the application of telematics technologies and establish a new channel for international cooperation. TTIA and OmniAir also invited Dr. Mu-Han Wang, the Director of the Office of Science and Technology Advisors from MOTC and Ms. Susan Hu, the Director of Economic Division from Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in the United States to witness the MOU signing.

 

As mentioned in his address, Dr. Wang said “The communication protocol for intelligent transport development is critical at the early stage. It will decide how to communicate between traffic controllers and CV roadside facilities. Completion of testing and verification program for TCROS 1.0 represents a major step forward for the domestic development of CV applications.” And MOTC will provide all the effort to build a good environment for the development of industry. Allow Taiwan industry to expand the market globally with international certification and connection.

 

During his opening remarks, TTIA president Men Feng Wu said that TTIA will continuously work with all the partners to develop and publish further ITS standards based on the development of V2X applications from the Danhai 5G field trials. He also noted “TTIA will rely on OmniAir with its worldwide network of knowledge and expertise, for understanding trends in C-V2X-based connected vehicle technologies and other relevant issues discussed at international fora.” The whole team look forward to working together more closely with OmniAir and plan on hosting the next Plugfest* at Danhai field.
