5G in Automotive: Safer, Smarter Mobility

5G in Automotive: Safer, Smarter Mobility

  • Tech News & Insight
  • August 18, 2025
Automotive digitization now hinges on 5G's ability to deliver reliable, low-latency, and scalable connectivity that 4G/LTE cannot sustain for safety-critical use cases. Advanced driver assistance, cooperative perception, and remote operations require millisecond-class response and deterministic reliability across dense traffic conditions. 5G Standalone (SA) with Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), improved positioning, and enhanced uplink meets these thresholds, enabling vehicles and infrastructure to exchange time-sensitive data continuously. This is the foundation for C-V2X, high-fidelity telematics, and closed-loop control that 4G/LTE struggles to support consistently. 5G enables dynamic traffic orchestration, energy-aware routing for EVs, and advanced safety services that can reduce incidents and congestion.

Humanoid Robot Games: 5G-Advanced and AI in China

Humanoid Robot Games: 5G-Advanced and AI in China
Beijing’s first World Humanoid Robot Games is more than a spectacle. It is a live systems trial for embodied AI, connectivity, and edge operations at scale. Over three days at the Beijing National Speed Skating Oval, more than 500 humanoid robots from roughly 280 teams representing 16 countries are competing in 26 events that span athletics and applied tasks, from soccer and boxing to medicine sorting and venue cleanup. The games double as a staging ground for 5G-Advanced (5G-A) capabilities designed for uplink-intensive, low-latency, high-reliability robotics traffic. Indoors, a digital system with 300 MHz of spectrum delivers multi-Gbps peaks and sustains uplink above 100 Mbps.

COAI Opposes Direct Spectrum Allocation for Private 5G in India

India’s DoT Reopens Doors for Direct Spectrum Allocation for Private 5G Networks
The Cellular Operators Association of India (COAI), representing Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel, and Vodafone Idea, is pushing back against direct 5G spectrum allocation for enterprises. COAI argues that India’s urban coverage, revenue priorities, and national security risks make an operator-led model via spectrum leasing or network slicing, more viable. The Department of Telecommunications is reviewing TRAI’s recommendation, with the decision set to shape India’s private 5G market for years.

Nokia Shifts Focus to AI and Network Infrastructure

Nokia Shifts Focus to AI and Network Infrastructure
Nokia is shifting its core focus from mobile networks to AI infrastructure and optical networking amid declining RAN revenues and financial pressures. In Q2 2025, the Network Infrastructure division surpassed Mobile Networks, driven by demand from data centers and hyperscalers. With CEO Justin Hotard emphasizing AI integration and enterprise 5G, Nokia is repositioning itself for long-term growth while maintaining its mobile presence as a strategic layer.

Nokia’s 5G Patent Clash: India Rejects Network Slicing IP Claim

Nokia’s 5G Patent Clash: India Rejects Network Slicing IP Claim
India’s rejection of Nokia’s 5G network slicing patent highlights a growing legal battle over telecom IP. Nokia’s appeal challenges India’s strict stance on software patents, while global competitors like Huawei and Ericsson dominate the 5G patent race. This decision may reshape vendor strategies, investment priorities, and legal precedents in next-gen telecom.
