Comprehensive testing of the Connected Car

The next phase of the Connected Car evolution will incorporate a wide range of technologies for wireless connectivity services relating to improved safety and traffic management, infotainment and vehicle relationship management. Implementing complex vehicle wireless systems gives rise to development challenges that automotive manufacturers need to address through comprehensive testing regimes.

The mobile industry typically conducts testing in the early stages of the development cycle when issues are less complicated, time-consuming and expensive to rectify. The automotive industry benefits from adopting similar test methodologies in order to reduce development time and costs associated with delivering the Connected Car vision. By performing repetitive testing in a laboratory environment using a simulated network, users are able to reduce test time and cost. With lab-based testing, the user is able to verify how well connectivity is established, taking into account vehicle motion as well as environmental conditions.
