How to solve connectivity for next-gen fleet telematics

In a richly detailed whitepaper prepared by John Gole, the Research Director for European IoT Practice at IDC Europe; transport companies are briefed on the challenges they face under next-gen fleet telematics and how to solve them. As these systems evolve to include new driver safety features, predictive maintenance support, recorded images and video, augmented reality and autonomous functionality; connectivity providers must respond with innovations to meet these new latency, bandwidth, reliability, location and technology needs.

In this report, learn:

  • What transport companies think about the adoption of 5G and other technologies – In a representative sample of transport sector respondents, in the IDC’s European Cloud-Edge-IoT Demand Landscape Survey; 5G, big data, AR and autonomous vehicles ranked as the highest areas of interest.
  • Providers are facing challenges delivering the needed connectivity – Roaming, inconsistent core networks, low carrier priority and integration issues with CMPs still reign. However, the IoT connectivity industry and its managed IoT service providers have addressed these issues to provide reliable connectivity for fleet telematics anywhere in the world.
  • How global IoT connectivity providers are stepping up to the plate – They are specialising in delivering essential services across a globally distributed core network with international carrier relationships where centralisation, flexibility and responsiveness are essentials, not add-ons. They are focusing on support for advanced SIM solutions with consumption-based charging and connectivity for 5G and satellite support included.
  • What the IDC recommends – Where a stable and consistent global connectivity service for powering vehicle telematics solutions is the goal, operators must choose a connectivity provider that includes comprehensive management capabilities across a range of roaming partners. It’s also worth considering 5G and advanced SIM support without lock-ins looking for partners where telemetrics is a core business function.
