OmniAir Consortium®, the leading industry association promoting interoperability and certification for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), tolling, and connected vehicles, applauds the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) adoption of the C-V2X Automotive Safety Spectrum Rules in the 5.9 GHz ITS band.
With the adoption of this 2nd Report & Order, the Commission establishes final technical and service rules for the deployment of cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) technology in the 5.850-5.925 GHz band.
OmniAir Consortium’s Executive Director, Jason Conley, issued the following statement:
“We are very pleased with the Federal Communication Commission’s decision to adopt final rules for C-V2X deployment in the United States. These rules will help to provide the necessary regulatory certainty, and will facilitate the implementation of life-saving C-V2X technologies across our nation’s infrastructure and in every vehicle. OmniAir and its members stands ready to support the national interoperable connectivity through our testing and certification programs.”
OmniAir is the only organization to offer independent third-party testing and certification for C-V2X on-board units (OBU), roadside units (RSU) and modules. OmniAir testing is conducted through a network of accredited test laboratories, using qualified test equipment and validated test cases. OmniAir Certification provides assurance to deployers that devices conform to industry standards, and meet interoperability, security and performance requirements.
