Business Implications
• US tolling drives 802.11p roll out• Government/legislation needs successful
deployment before investing in infrastructure
• Low-penetration applications need large coverage or municipal Wi-Fi
• Connected Car competes with Connected Driver (TomTom plus OBD2 via Bluetooth)
• Proven Security/Privacy solution is a Must
