IMAGINE-B5G

SMATRA-5G is a cutting-edge vertical experiment led by Odin Solutions (ODINS) and selected in the third Open Call of IMAGINE-B5G. The project introduces an innovative solution for smart transport by leveraging Virtual On-Board Units (vOBUs), integrated with advanced 5G capabilities such as Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC), seamless handover, and low-latency communications.

The experiment explores how dynamic virtualised components can replace traditional in-vehicle systems to ensure continuous connectivity, lower energy consumption, and enhanced scalability in vehicular environments. By deploying vOBUs near moving vehicles and orchestrating them across multiple 5G cells, SMATRA-5G paves the way for more resilient and efficient connected and autonomous vehicle (CAV) systems.
