　　Unmanned car-hailing, autonomous driving, 5G-based C-V2X (Internet of Vehicles wireless communication technology) ... With the intensive introduction of multiple support policies, national strategic planning has become an important driving force for the development of Internet of Vehicles. "Policy Dongfeng" accelerates the layout in various application scenarios. CCID data shows that by 2021, China's Internet of Vehicles market will reach 115 billion yuan.

　　Unmanned vehicle trial operation

　　Riding a car on the unmanned network is expected to become the “new fashion” of daily travel for Shanghai residents: open the car car-hailing app, enter the starting and ending points, and select “AutoX” (automatic driving) in the “comfortable” model. The car hire will automatically deliver the passenger to the destination safely.

　　Gaode recently piloted the self-driving car-hailing project in Shanghai. Shanghai residents can call unmanned vehicles through the Gaode taxi platform and experience it for free within the scope of autonomous driving specified by the government. Unlike other self-driving cars that can only be parked at a fixed location, AutoX, which Autolink connects with AutoNavi, receives an order and will park at a safe location nearby based on the traffic conditions at the passenger's starting point.

　　According to relevant laws and regulations, although self-driving online car-hailing vehicles do not require human intervention during the driving process, in the first stage of the unmanned vehicle demonstration application, each vehicle will still be equipped with a safety officer to ensure that the vehicle runs normally. Through the vehicle's camera and radar equipment, the large screen in the car can also accurately restore the surrounding conditions of the vehicle, and remind passengers of the current speed, traffic signal status, steering reminder and other information.

　　Baidu has launched the first unmanned car-hailing service in Changsha, Hunan. The first batch of 45 unmanned vehicles has been put into trial operation. Each vehicle is equipped with a safety officer and no mileage limit. Changsha citizens can use their mobile phones within a specified time period. The APP calls the vehicle in real time and rides for free.

　　High-tech helps "car connects everything"

　　As an important landing application entity of the Internet of Vehicles industry, self-driving vehicles take the driving vehicle as the information sensing object and realize the "Vehicle Connected Everything" (V2X) with the help of a new generation of information and communication technology, that is, vehicles and vehicles, people, roads, and service platforms Etc. With the accelerated application of 5G technology in the industry, "Car Connected Everything" will also be presented in a more rapid and stable form.

　　During driving, self-driving vehicles need to identify the traffic lights in front of them, pedestrians in the surrounding vehicles, and facilities on both sides of the road, establish efficient and stable real-time "communication" with these road traffic entities, and do current road conditions and driving status. To make a judgment and then execute the corresponding driving action, the entire process must be completed in milliseconds.

　　Tang Jialiang, an analyst at BAIC Investment, believes that 5G has high reliability and low latency, and it is a "knocking brick" for the further development of autonomous driving technology. "Car uniting everything" is the core landing scenario of 5G.

　　Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued the "Notice on Promoting the Rapid Development of 5G", which proposes to promote the "5G + Internet of Vehicles" collaborative development and promote the development and verification of wireless communication technology standards for Internet of Vehicles. Industry insiders pointed out that with the development of a new generation of network technology, autonomous driving systems can cope with more complicated urban traffic road conditions, and timely adjust the driving status of vehicles in the event of extreme weather such as rain, snow and typhoons to reduce the probability of traffic accidents.

　　In addition, 5G technology can also help vehicles to quickly upgrade their automated driving systems remotely, by continuously updating software to reduce possible security vulnerabilities in the system, to avoid accidents caused by system "crashes" during driving, and to allow autonomous vehicles to operate in various road conditions and Safety and reliability in the environment have reached a new level.

　　Good policy, frequent "God assists"

　　Eleven departments including the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the Ministry of Science and Technology jointly released the "Smart Car Innovation Development Strategy" a few days ago, expounding the overall deployment and strategic implementation of China's smart car innovation and development, and formulating a clear road map for the development of China's smart car industry.

　　The Ministry of Transport recently published the "Overall Technical Specifications for Automated Driving Auxiliary Facilities for Highway Engineering (Draft for Comment)" on the planning and construction of highway ancillary facilities at the level of adaptive driving to make technical specifications to better support vehicles on the highway For automated driving.

　　In response to the needs of intelligent vehicle management in the Internet of Vehicles environment, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Public Security, and the National Standardization Management Committee recently jointly issued the "Guidelines for the Construction of a National Standardization System for Internet of Vehicles (Intelligent Vehicle Management)" to guide the registration and authentication of smart connected vehicles. Standardization work in areas such as safety, road operation management, and vehicle-road collaborative management and service.

　　"There are already a series of related standards for smart connected cars in the making." Experts in driverless technology said that formulating unified standards to regulate the identification and management of smart vehicles will help scale the existing transportation system. The verification and demonstration of intelligent vehicles are effectively managed and controlled, and obstacles will be cleared for the success of more follow-up demonstration demonstrations of the Internet of Vehicles.
