Abstract:

5GMed will demonstrate advanced Cooperative Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM) and Future Railway Mobile Communications System services (FRMCS) along the “Figueres – Perpignan” cross-border corridor between Spain and France.

Enabled by a multi-stakeholder compute and network infrastructure deployed by MNOs, neutral hosts, and road and rail operators, based on 5G and offering support for AI functions.

Cross-Border corridor description:

• Border between Spain and France: 65 km between Perpignan and Figueras.
• Value proposition: High-speed rail track + highway run very close to each other = deploy a single multi-stakeholder infrastructure.
• Two different scenarios:
  • Spain: Single 5G MNO + Sidelink.
  • France: 5G IaaS model for MNO & PaaS for other stakeholders.

Topics:

• Cross-operator service orchestration
• Innovations in multi-connectivity supporting high-speed vehicles and trains
• Self-sustainable 5G access network infrastructure that can be deployed when power and backhauling resources are scarce
• Enhancements to speed up roaming transitions across MNOs and neutral hosts
• Novel high-speed access network architectures for railways
• The ability to support AI enabled functions executing at the edge of the network

4 different Use Cases will be implemented during the project: 

• Use Case 1: Remote Driving
• Use Case 2: Road infrastructure digitalisation for intelligent management of the connected and automated vehicles mobility 
• Use Case 3: FRMCS applications and business service continuity
• Use Case 4: Follow-ME Infotainment
