TrackFi PowerMesh
Secure high bandwidth data transfer between multiple vehicles
TrackFi PowerMesh is a dual band Ethernet radio, capable of creating secure mesh networks whilst providing high bandwidth data transfer between multiple vehicles. This offers greatly improved reliability over standard WLAN technology, making it ideal for vehicle testing including Euro NCAP AEB testing and driverless vehicle testing.
Complete connectivity of all test vehicles and objects
TrackFi PowerMesh provides low latency data transfer between multiple vehicles or to Ground Traffic Control. It is suitable for use in large areas with obstructions such as trees or buildings and is immune to destructive multi-path interference.
Real-time data transfer between multiple vehicles
Live test data from multiple moving vehicles can be relayed to the laboratory for remote monitoring. This includes AB Dynamics' Driverless and Synchro Robot data, along with V2V and V2X position and speed measurement.
Case Study: Growth of Driverless and ADAS Testing
The recent growth in wireless data transfer from the increasing use of driverless traffic in automotive testing is causing significant issues for the industry.
Increasingly complex test scenarios require the use of driverless vehicles and other moving elements, such as ADAS targets, which must all be in constant communication with each other. This increase in data transfer can result in interference and signal dropout, triggering fail-safe architectures to stop the test, meaning that test scenarios have to be reset and repeated.
