Enhanced Decentralized V2V Communications Leveraging the Potential of Automotive RADAR

InnoTech Systems, LLC has developed an alternative, non-traditional, and reliable method of communication for Vehicleto- everything V2X applications by leveraging existing automotive RADAR sensors. The goal is to enable more efficient Cooperative Driving Automation (CDA) functions. The company’s groundbreaking technology utilizes the capabilities of pre-installed automotive RADAR sensors to create economical, secure, low-latency communication channels for V2X applications. Compared to conventional C-V2X technology, InnoTech’s solution is significantly more cost-effective, reducing infrastructure, device, and operational expenses, while delivering extremely low latency, which is critical for safety-critical applications. Among the standout features of our technology is its utilization of existing frequency bands, specifically those already allocated for automotive RADAR, which eliminates the need for costly service agreements with mobile network operators. The system also benefits from the use of prevalent hardware, leveraging RADAR sensors already installed in most modern vehicles for safety functions, thereby minimizing additional hardware requirements. The system provides low-latency communication, enabling V2X interactions at latency levels significantly lower, potentially by orders of magnitude, than current C-V2X technologies. During Phase I, InnoTech successfully completed analytical and simulation-based development of its solution via Model-in-the-Loop (MIL) and Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing and demonstrated realtime data transmission over RADAR utilizing FPGA for signal processing.
