The three keys to autonomous driving are sensors, data integration, and 100% safety decisions. In the past, due to the high latency and low reliability of the network, many decisions had to be made locally in the vehicle. This puts high demands on the vehicle itself, which results in the dilatory commercialization of automatic driving. With the advent of 5G, these situations will be greatly improved. In this paper, we present the improvements that 5G technology brings to autonomous vehicles especially in terms of latency and reliability amongst the multitude of other factors. The paper analyzes the specific areas where 5G can improve for autonomous vehicles and Intelligent Transport Systems in general (ITS) and looks forward to the application of 5G technology in the future.
