C-V2X Interoperability Packet Traces from Commercial OBUs and RSUs

Packet captures from Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything interoperability tests assess compatibility among commercial on-board and roadside units. Data was collected using a network sniffer and converted into PDML format by the National Institute of Standards and Technology, with the dataset last updated in March 2025. It includes three distinct test cases for vehicle-to-infrastructure, vehicle-to-vehicle, and combined C-V2X communications.

Use Cases

• Analyze packet timing and sequence in PDML traces to identify latency or jitter issues in C-V2V communications.
• Assess protocol compliance by examining packet headers and payloads against IEEE 1609.2 and SAE J2735 standards.
• Compare network traffic patterns across C-V2I, C-V2V, and C-V2X test cases to evaluate system performance under different scenarios.
• Validate the interoperability of commercial OBU and RSU hardware by inspecting captured message exchanges.

Strengths

• Data is explicitly tied to three defined test cases (C-V2I, C-V2V, C-V2X) for structured analysis.
• Captures real-world interoperability testing of commercial hardware against established IEEE and SAE standards.

Limitations

• The specific number of captured packets, test duration, and sample size are unknown.
• Geographic scope and environmental conditions of the testing are not specified, limiting reproducibility.
