Guest Editorial Special Issue on 5G/6G Precise Positioning on Cooperative Intelligent Transportation Systems (C-ITS) and Connected Automated Vehicles (CAV)–Part I

Abstract

The advancement of connected intelligent transportation systems (C-ITS) and connected automated vehicles (CAV) has brought about a growing need for precise positioning solutions. Positioning technologies play a crucial role in many use cases such as emergency call systems, disaster rescue operations, automated robotics, and more. To ensure the availability, reliability, and quality of location systems both indoors and outdoors, the evolution of cellular technology, particularly in the form of 5G/6G networks, promises to provide a new pathway towards achieving high precision positioning.
