Autotalks is the First to Complete Testing of C2C 
Positioning in ETSI Plugtest Event
Timing (POTI) tests were first organized by 
the Car2Car Communication Consortium as 
a part of its conformance assessment 
activities. 
 On March 17–27, 2015, TASS International 
hosted these tests as part of the ETSI 4th 
ITS Cooperative Mobility Services plugtest 
event in Helmond, the Netherlands.

For testing Dead-Reckoning (DR) in a 
variety of environments, including open 
sky, half-open sky, city, tunnel, forest, and 
reverse, TASS International test equipment 
streamed GNSS and CAN-bus signals that 
were previously recorded during live 
driving
The first device to participate in and pass 
the POTI tests was STMicroelectronics' 
Teseo II receiver, which was integrated with 
Autotalks' chipset, CRATON V2X 
communication processor, and PLUTON 
V2X RF transceiver.
For dependable safety applications in 
vehicle-to-vehicle communication, precise 
and timely positioning is necessary.
A driver's behavior may be negatively 
impacted by false alarms that are 
distracting or even dangerous if they are 
triggered by inaccurate or out-of-date 
positioning, or, more importantly, if true 
alarms are not triggered. 
 Therefore, even in difficult situations 
where the vehicle is moving quickly, 
making maneuvers, and entering a GNSS-
unfriendly environment like urban canyons, 
forests, parking lots, and tunnels, the 
positioning solution must be dependable.
The success of STMicroelectronics' (ST) and 
Autotalks' high-end V2X positioning 
solution was greatly influenced by their 
excellent collaboration. 
"It is very satisfying to have used Teseo II's 
superior positioning results and ST's 
capacity to carry out vehicle sensor fusion 
during the challenging scenario testing by 
TASS.
