Commsignia Introduces New Dual-Radio Roadside Unit

Commsignia, a market leader in V2X technology, today announced the introduction of the first Roadside Unit (RSU) capable of operating on both C-V2X and dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) radios. As  both technolgies are being considered for vehicle and infrastructure communication, providers are challenged with deciding which technology to utilize when deploying a future-proof infrastructure solution.

Commsignia’s RSU helps to address this, serving as an industry-first solution to ease the challange that providers or integrators are facing when deciding on which technology to deploy. The RSU connects DSRC and C-V2X communication technologies, expanding remote perception of connected and non-connected road objects. Therefore a more detailed coverage of the road environment can be achieved, as the Dual Active RSU can integrate perceptions coming from both the C-V2X or the DSRC-based network, and feed it to all V2X-capable vehicles. It also represents a prudent approach to which infrastructure to deploy as automakers are finalizing their plans for connected car.
