V2X Connected Smart Tyre Telemetry for Real-Time Road and Vehicle Monitoring

Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication enhances road safety and traffic efficiency by supporting Cooperative Intelligent Transport System (C-ITS) services. This study introduces the Vehicle Telemetry Information Message (VTIM), designed to share real-time tyre and road surface condition data from vehicle to roadside unit (RSU). We validate the system in a field test using a connected vehicle equipped with ITS-G5 communication and smart tyre technology. Our analyses evaluate V2X latency in telemetry transmission, along with bitrate and packet error rate at the receiving end. Experimental results confirm the system’s ability to facilitate timely and reliable data exchange, enabling vehicle telemetry and road surface monitoring (e.g., water detection) for enhanced road safety services.
