How the flow of data in vehicle-to-vehicle communication can be kept stable and secure is a matter that Bosch, Escrypt, Kapsch, Nokia, and Telekom have been investigating over the past three and a half years in the European innovation project CONCORDA in a consortium. This was headed by ERTICO – ITS Europe, a public/private partnership pursuing the development and deployment of intelligent transport systems.

The testing in the CONCORDA Project comprised three types of vehicle-to-vehicle communication:

  • direct Wi-Fi-based communication (ITS-G5);
  • cellular-based communication that is direct (LTE-V2X PC5);
  • indirect communication over the mobile network (LTE)

As the trials showed, all the tested systems more than adequately fulfilled the stringent standards with regard to information security.
