據(jù)科學(xué)家們稱，汽車很快就可以通過5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)互相“對(duì)話”。 超高速的移動(dòng)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)可以使信息快速傳輸，并讓司機(jī)注意到前方的安全隱患，包括透明薄冰、坑洞或其他危險(xiǎn)。

Cars could soon be communicating with each other using 5G to make drivers aware of upcoming dangers, scientists claimed.

The fast mobile Internet would allow for rapid information transmission and could make drivers aware of black ice, potholes or other dangers up ahead.

Several car producers are already integrating 5G into their vehicles, including as a tool to help usher the generation of self-driving vehicles.

Experts believe the high-speed connection will also improve the reliability and capability of automated vehicles to the point where they will be safer than the manual cars being driven today.

They predict the number of road traffic accidents—which according to the World Health Organization account for more than 1.3 million deaths and up to 50 million people injured worldwide every year—will drop as a result.

Dr Dimitrios, a member of the research group, said,“To have a better idea of what the future will look like, think of having Tesla-like cars that not only use sensors to scan what's around them, but they can also talk to each other and exchange safety-related information about their surroundings over an area that covers several square miles.”

“I'm sure anyone who has had a bad experience on frozen roads would have benefited from knowing about the dangerous conditions in advance so they could have adjusted their speed or, if possible, even avoided that route altogether.”

With the help of 5G, a vehicle-generated early warning system that alerts drivers is feasible within the next few years. Cars that are close enough to the danger area will transmit warning messages to other cars around them using short-range communication technologies, but also to cars further away using 5G, fast and reliably.

Then those cars will send the same information to cars near them and so on, forming a joined-up, multi-vehicle communication chain that stretches far and wide.

“5G is an exciting mobile technology,which will give a massive boost to smart cities and autonomous vehicles among many other things.”
