MEC Intersection Management

Overview

'MEC Intersection Management' uses cellular communications to support connected vehicle applications that manage signalized intersections. It communicates with nearby vehicles and ITS infrastructure (e.g., the traffic signal controller) to enhance traffic signal operations. There may be constraints related to performance related to communications with participants using network operators foreign to the MEC.
