LG Electronics is deploying a next-generation 5G telematics system in European vehicles, marking the first mass-produced application of the R16-based solution in the region, the company announced on Wednesday. The innovative system, built on the latest 5G communications standard, aims to provide more reliable data transmission and reduced delays compared to its predecessor, the R15 standard, according to LG.
The R16 standard boasts a data error rate of just 0.001 percent and a transmission latency of 1 millisecond, representing a significant improvement over 4G technology. These enhancements would translate to data error rates 100 times lower and transmission delays five times shorter than those experienced with 4G networks. The system is engineered to support software-defined vehicles and artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled vehicles, enabling features such as over-the-air software updates, vehicle-to-everything communications, and high-volume data transmission for autonomous driving systems.
LG asserts that the integrated communications module, capable of housing up to 12 antennas, will facilitate these advanced functionalities within European production cars.
