OmniAir Qualified Test Equipment (OQTE) status from the OmniAir Consortium has been awarded to Keysight Technologies’ vehicle to everything (V2X) test solution. OmniAir is the leading industry association promoting interoperability and certification for intelligent transportation systems (ITS), tolling and connected vehicles.

Automotive manufacturers and their suppliers are actively investing in V2X technology to improve the safety and efficiency of automobiles and for connected car applications.

Keysight's E6953A DSRC V2X Test Solution provides automotive OEM manufacturers and suppliers with confidence that their devices and software will pass global industry requirements for interoperability and compliance with current standards and regulations.

OmniAir has certified Keysight's V2X Test Solution to validate physical layer (PHY) and protocol conformance in V2X based on OmniAir Consortium's DSRC test specifications. Keysight's E6953A DSRC V2X Test Solution enables full test automation of OmniAir Consortium WAVE-DSRC test cases based upon standards SAE J2945/1, IEEE 802.11p, IEEE 1609.2, IEEE 1609.3, and IEEE 1609.4.
