Qualcomm launches reference platform for the connected car

Fabless chipmaker Qualcomm has announced a reference platform for the connected car. Supporting wireless key technologies such as LTE, GNSS, WiFi, DSRC/V2X and Bluetooth, the platform addresses the requirements of a broad range of applications with one sweeping blow.

By Christoph Hammerschmidt , Jun. 08, 2016 – 

Designed to solve challenges such as scalability, wireless coexistence, future-proofing and support for third-party in-car hardware architectures, the platform is built upon existing Qualcomm technologies and architecture such as Snapdragon X12 and X5 LTE modems, quad-constellation Global Navigation Satellite System and 2D/3D Dead Reckoning location solutions as well as the company's VIVE WiFi products, Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) for Vehicle-to-X communications, Bluetooth LE and broadcasting capabilities such as analog and digital tuner support using software-defined radio functionality based on Qualcomm's tuneX chips. In addition, the platform features in-vehicle connectivity technologies such as Gigabit Ethernet via Automotive Audio Bus (A2B) and CAN.

In order to ensure the desired scalability the platform is designed as a framework that can grow with its tasks. It scales from a basic telematics unit up to a highly integrated wireless gateway connecting multiple ECUs within the car and supports critical functions like over-the-air software upgrades as well as data collection and analytics.
