LG Electronics has completed a number of deals with a leading European car maker to supply 5G telematics, the company has announced.

Utilising Dual SIM Dual Active (DSDA) technology, LG’s solutions support connected car and autonomous driving functionalities. This allows them to support improved entertainment services and enhance in-car functions and safety.

LG says its 5G-V2X technology approaches the threshold for Level 4 in which autonomous vehicles no longer require human interaction for operation. According to the company, its technology delivers more consistent vehicle data transmission speeds.

“Thanks to our experience and expertise in vehicle telematics, LG has been successful in winning a number of new contracts with established global automakers,” said Eun Seok-hyun, president of the LG Vehicle component Solutions Company. “With solutions that are extremely easy to implement in various vehicle models thanks to our embedded modular design, LG’s telematics hardware and software systems offer an unmatched level of flexibility for manufacturers and diverse services for end-users. A trusted partner to automakers worldwide, LG is helping to create a safer, better future on the world’s roads with its growing portfolio of advanced mobility innovations.”
