SEP4CAM - A Simulative / Emulative Platform for C-V2X Application Development in Cross-Border and Cross-Domain Environments

The complex interactions in advanced CCAM use cases that utilize C-V2X infrastructure require novel means to develop and test the solutions, especially when it comes to cross-border or cross-domain environments that consist of an overlay of multiple stakeholders. Accordingly this paper proposes a concept for a simulative / emulative platform for C-V2X applications in order to facilitate the development of advanced CCAM use cases. For this purpose we combine different simulation approaches with the in-vehicle C-V2X infrastructure, which allows us, based on realistic traffic conditions, to create additional emulated road users and test the integration of multi-operator C-V2X platforms.
