European certification: Commsignia's ITS OB-4 unit

The manufacturer’s ITS OB-4 OBU and ITS RS-4 RSU have acquired the certificate of the European Radio Emissions Directive – and this allows them to be marketed in the European Union.

The ITS-RS4 acts as a local hub for sensor data exchange as well as an application which can improve safety for road users and optimise traffic. 

It gathers information from traffic cameras, traffic light controllers, sensors, V2X-connected vehicles and bikes. 

A deep neural network/graphics processing unit accelerated artificial intelligence processor creates a real-time representation of the information to create a dynamic model of the environment, the company adds.

According to Commsignia, the ITS-OB4 offers improved performance coupled with the V2X software stack. It offers built-in tamper-proof hardware security module and a high range V2X radio.

    For many, Ethernet- and IP-based networks are the cast-iron solution to ITS's communications needs. However, there remain issues from manufacturer to manufacturer with interpretation of what are supposed to be common standards The 'promise' of Ethernet was that different devices such as IP video cameras and traffic signals could be easily integrated into communications networks, simplifying the process of transporting data over copper, fibre or wirelessly. However, although Ethernet devices have come to pre

    The growing demand for road safety and efficient mobility is driving the adoption of cooperative intelligent transportation solutions (C-ITS) and a key enabler of C-ITS is Vehicle-to-X (V2X) communication, says Frost & Sullivan. It supports the exchange of information between vehicles, infrastructure and other road users, such as pedestrians. Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication is enabled using 802.11p (DSRC or ITS-G5) or cellular technology. 802.11p is a proven technology; however, it is not future proo
