<strong>Final</strong> Report <strong>PRE</strong>-<strong>DRIVE</strong> <strong>C2X</strong> 29.9.2010<br />
The operating system is a Delphi customized Linux system with no or only little<br />
deviations from LHS, compliant to GNU repositories.<br />
A VGA output allows you to connect an external analogue monitor to the system.<br />
Furthermore the system allows connection of an additional LVDS TFT display as<br />
well as video out and S-Video to connect to an analogue video display. The system<br />
can be connected to a network with a 10/100Mbps Ethernet (PORT 1),<br />
10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet (PORT2) or to WLANs by utilizing the internal<br />
DSRC radio.<br />
Peripheral equipment such as a modem, mouse, keyboard or mass-storage devices<br />
can be connected via two USB 1.1 or USB2.0 ports.<br />
The included wireless radio module is based on an Atheros AR5414 chipset. The<br />
wireless radio control driver enables the wireless radio communication supporting<br />
IEEE 802.11p communication standard and as well as standard WiFi<br />
communications (IEEE 802.11 a/b/g).<br />
2.3.3.4 NEC CCU<br />
The NEC CCU consists of two building blocks - a hardware platform called LinkBird-<br />
MX and a software system, i.e. the NEC <strong>C2X</strong>-SDK (CAR-2-X Communication<br />
Software Development Kit).<br />
The LinkBird-MX is a hardware platform designed for evaluation of vehicular<br />
communication protocols. It meets the requirements for Car2X field trials and is<br />
used with the NEC Car2X SDK Communication System and API, which provides<br />
geographical routing and interfaces compliant to the <strong>PRE</strong>-<strong>DRIVE</strong> <strong>C2X</strong> architecture<br />
and GeoNet specifications.<br />
The LinkBird-MX Version 3 is equipped with various interfaces. It provides as<br />
network interfaces embedded Fast Ethernet 10/100 Base-T; two embedded mini-<br />
PCIs IEEE802.11 a/b/g/p featuring simultaneous operations on 2 channels<br />
(IEEE802.11p D3.0); and optional GSM/UMTS/HSDPA modem automatically<br />
configured providing in-vehicle Internet access. In addition it offers two USB 2.0, two<br />
PCMCIA 32-bit, MOST (Media Oriented Systems Transport), VICS (Vehicle<br />
Information and Communication System), serial GPS, CAN, and RS232 UART<br />
(Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) system interfaces. Furthermore 4<br />
SMA connectors for 2 WLAN modules with configurable antenna diversity are<br />
installed on the LinkBird-MX. The LinkBird-MX fulfills automotive standards for<br />
temperature, range, power consumption and shock/vibration resistance. Figure 25<br />
depicts a front view of the exterior of LinkBird-MX Version 3.<br />
