Automotive and LTE / 5G ı Initial Cellular V2X standard completed ı V2V communications are based on D2D communications defined as part of ProSe services in Release 12 and Release 13 of the specification. As part of ProSe services, a new D2D interface (designated as PC5, also known as sidelink at the physical layer) was introduced and now as part of the V2V WI it has been enhanced for vehicular use cases, specifically addressing high speed (up to 250Kph) and high density (thousands of nodes). ı 5G Automotive Association AUDI AG, BMW Group, Daimler AG, Ericsson, Huawei, Intel, Nokia und Qualcomm Inc. launched the 5G Automotive Association (5GAA) The association will develop, test and promote communications solutions, support standardization and accelerate commercial availability and global market penetration. The goal is to address society s connected mobility and road safety needs with applications such as connected automated driving, ubiquitous access to services and integration into smart cities and intelligent transportation 61

C-V2X infrastructure scenario broadcast + cell overlapping 3GPP has defined the concept of temporary mobile group ID, TMGI to send data to a group of UEs via MBMS. But this concept does not support overlapping cell concept. MBMS: broadcast data to different UEs -> addresse centric C-V2X: broadcast data to different UEs depending on their location -> position centric e.g. cell group 2 (green) has to broadcast data relevant for group 1 (red) and group 3 (yellow)
