Almost 90 cities have partnered with Qualcomm to deploy roadside units (RSUs), C-V2X is expected to be deployed in approximately half of the vehicles by the end of 2025 in China.
The country also plans to begin the testing for the 5G NR-V2X technology by the year 2025 as a part of the Smart Vehicles Innovation Development Strategy.
The company Qualcomm Incorporated announced the fiscal results of the company for the third quarter of 2021. The revenue of the company for Q3 of the year 2021 was $8.06 billion where in the year 2019, the company recorded a revenue of $4.89 billion for the same quarter.
The whopping low revenue was attributed due to the COVID-19 pandemic which has resulted in a global semiconductor shortage causing the supply chain across many sectors to disrupt and cause economic instability. After recovering the company in this quarter increased their revenue by approximately 65%.
The company along with leading the transition to 5G, are on the path to deliver $10 billion revenue for the fiscal year annually across IoT, RF front-end as well as automotive sector modules to diversify their business.
The company Murata Wireless Innovations announced their Q1 results for the year 2021 with net sales of JPY 439.6 billion, which was an increase by 34.5% year-on-year in net sales by 2020.
The sale increased primarily due to the recovery in the automotive sector. Out of the net sales reported by the company as a whole, the wireless module systems contributed JPY 99.9 billion in the first quarter of 2021, The sales increased by 1.7% for these modules.
The global automotive cellular IoT module system shipments have increased by 9% in the fiscal year 2020-2021, but decreased during the third and fourth quarter of 2020 by 6% due to the COVID-19 pandemic causing disruptions in the economy.
Only the countries Japan and South Korea saw an increase in the module shipments during the year 2020. The number of IoT module units shipped from the manufacturing units of the major players amounted to 265 millions for the year 2020.
For use with Kustom Signals moving RADAR, Kustom Signals, Inc. is happy to announce the availability of our new Wireless Speed Sense module. The Raptor RP-1, Eagle II family, as well as the moving Falcon HR and Talon when used with its POD mount, can now benefit from the same wireless features that Kustom Signals’ Eagle 3 traffic safety RADAR uses in its proprietary wireless vehicle speed detect module.
The wireless speed sensing module offers a number of well-liked advantages, such as an impartial assessment of the Doppler patrol speed that gets rid of typical RADAR abnormalities like shadowing, batching, and combining.
It permits the well-liked capability for automatic mode transition from stationary to moving operations and vice versa. It also enables the RADAR to instantly display patrol and target speeds when coming out of HOLD.
The 88Q9098 family of automotive wireless SoCs from NXP is the first Wi-Fi 6 solution available on the market. It is based on the most recent IEEE 802.11ax standards and supports dual-mode Bluetooth 5.3 and 2×2 plus 2×2 concurrent dual Wi-Fi. In the increasingly crowded automotive environment, it is getting harder to deliver dependable and high-performance wireless communication.
The new 88Q9098 combo solution extends leadership in offering complete Wi-Fi 6 solutions by enabling gigabit-level performance, greater dependability, and enhanced security for the automobile.
Ground-breaking concurrent dual Wi-Fi architecture creates a new standard in technology by combining two full Wi-Fi subsystems onto a single SoC and enabling the simultaneous and full-throughput operation of two independent 2×2 data streams.
