5G-Driven Connected Cars to Accelerate Automotive Connectivity

How can we make our roads better? Well, using 5G car connectivity, we can connect cars to each other, the road, and other services. This makes roads safer, faster, and more energy efficient. It also makes car rides more fun with entertainment in the car. 

Looking ahead, experts at Gartner predict that a lot more cars will use 5G – from 15% in 2020 to an impressive 94% by 2028. Even though current technologies like 4G LTE have helped, they struggle to keep up with what drivers and advanced car systems need. 

Current technologies have trouble handling data, have limits on how much information they can send, and there’s a delay in communication. This makes it hard for safety features and improving car systems in real-time. Also, these technologies have a tough time working together with smart city infrastructure, which means we can’t make traffic flow better or add more safety measures easily. 

But 5G is changing the car industry. It’s making cars connected, which means how cars are made, how they work on the road, and how people use them is different. One big change is that more parts of a car’s abilities are controlled by software, and this software can be updated over time. This lets car companies try new ways of doing business, like offering subscription services. 5G also helps improve safety in cars more efficiently. 

In terms of reliability and security, 5G provides consistent connectivity that’s important for real-time safety applications and keeping an eye on car systems all the time. Strong encryption and security measures make sure that the data sent within and to/from connected cars is safe and private.
