• Hyundai Mobis secures the integrated control technology for a 5G and V2X communication module and is ready to enter the autonomous driving and connected car market on a large scale.
• An integrated control system for high-speed connectivity is crucial for high-volume data processing and real-time services in the future automotive market.
• Mobis is prepared to provide a differentiated mobility experience, combining existing autonomous vehicle sensors and IVI technology with 5G and V2X connectivity to differentiate them from the competition.

Seoul, South Korea – October 4, 2022 – [Hyundai Mobis (KRX: 012330) Hyundai Mobis announced that it has successfully developed an innovative 5G communication module for in-car use, which is essential for realizing future services of mobility. The 5G in-car communication module is a technology based on 5G mobile connectivity designed to provide ultra-high-speed connections, ultra-low latency, and hyper-connectivity. It is seen as a vital technology for the advancement of autonomous driving and the connected system, based on massive data processing and real-time connections.

This 5G communication module combines a communication chip, memory, an RF circuit and GPS, with the company intending to use this technology in the telematics service for connected 5G vehicles.

Telematics refers to technology that makes use of a mobile communications network to share vehicle information with an external control center to provide greater safety, convenience, and infotainment experiences. Prime examples of telematics are remote vehicle control, OTA updates, real-time traffic data sharing, and eCall (an emergency calling system).

Hyundai Mobis aims to reach the global audience with an integrated solution based on V2X communication technology and its newly developed 5G communication technology.

The solution features a wide range of transportation applications for greater safety and convenience for drivers: sharing sensor data between vehicles, automatically decelerating in school zones, and controlling vehicles in emergency situations. However, this is still in the early stages of development and is thus categorized as a technology for the future of mobility. Currently, luxury car manufacturers around the world are in the R&D race to implement an integrated 5G V2X solution in cars.

Joon-bae Choi, Head of Connectivity and Sound Sector at Hyundai Mobis, said, “We will strive to develop a differentiated mobility technology that fuses 5G V2X technology integrated with existing autonomous vehicle sensors and our IVI technology, which gives us a competitive edge over rivals.”
