8. ITS Communications
8.0 General considerations on communications for EU-ICIP compliant systems
​
For examples of services and contexts that may need ITS communications click here ;-ABOUT ITS
8.0.1 Introduction
"
Intelligent Transport Systems" (ITS) means to apply "Information and Communication Technologies" (ICT) in the domain of surface transportation; where "surface transportation" means transportation on the ground such as achieved with vehicles, motorcycles, non-motorized cycles, trams, trains and also by feed (pedestrians) that can meet each other somewhere on the ground. Typically, this term does not cover explicitly transportation on water (ships) and in the air (planes); however, the applicable communications-technologies would be identical and beneficial for many use cases.
​
ITS covers several operational domains (use case domains), some of which are identified by specific terms, such as C-ITS (cooperative ITS) or U-ITS (urban ITS). Whilst such distinction might be useful to point to a specific feature or target of ITS, it is not at all helpful to distinguish applicable technologies, especially communication technologies and facilities. Further on, there is overlap in ITS services provided in different ITS operational domains; e.g. public transport also needs fleet management services.
​
The term C-ITS was created in the context of the EC's mandate M/453 [R5] for funding of the development of standards especially suitable for road safety and traffic efficiency, whilst the term U-ITS was created in the context of a subsequent mandate M/546 [R9], where urban issues were in the focus of standard development. It is obvious, that drawing a borderline between cooperative and non-cooperative, and between urban, sub-urban and rural is not feasible in a precise manner. Similarly, the C-ITS is not equal to the EC's C-ITS delegated act, and vice versa, which is clearly expressed in the C-ITS delegated act documents (the choice of technologies there is just a start for day-1 road safety applications).
​
Looking on communications, it is even more obvious, that the various ITS operational domains follow the same principles and characteristics, which simplifies integration of ITS operational domains with respect of exchange data. This leads to the concept of "hybrid communications". Consequently, this clause will provide
​
-
an explanation of hybrid communications;
-
a generally applicable description of communications including facilities;
-
information on which communications technologies currently are used in specific ITS use cases or are recommended for ITS use cases
-
finally, suggestions on management of stations to enable reliable security, perform lifecycle management and smooth migrations towards future technologies.
This section also presents an overview on standards from various standard development organizations (SDOs), which includes also some standards that are only partly related to communications.
​
8.0.2 General guidelines
General guidelines on the usage of (communications) standards for EU-ICIP are a pre-requisite for efficient development of equipment and software, and subsequent deployment. Such guidelines partly already exist under the label of C-ITS, and are provided in a series of Technical Reports from CEN: TR 21186 Cooperative intelligent transport systems — Guidelines on the usage of standards —
New work items for further parts

Part 4: Usage of the service announcement protocol specified in EN ISO 22418;
-
Part 5: Dynamically extendable data and protocol parameters ("Information Object Classes" and "Information Object Sets"; based on ASN.1 type CLASS);
-
Part 6: Usage of the GDTM framework specified in ISO TS 21184
​
are under preparation. This series of Technical Reports is accompanied by a Brochure on C-ITS that is available for download free of charge at https://www.itsstandards.eu/highlighted-projects/c-its-secure-communications/.

​
8.0.3 Communication profiles and station architectures
The major issue to standardize communications is to enable interoperability of equipment provided by different manufacturers. The observable and testable interface between a sender and a receiver is the communication link given by the communication protocol stacks in the sender and the receiver, and the communication medium. The communication medium can be a wire or a wireless medium. Examples of wireless media are radio waves, light, and acoustics. Upon usage of identical protocol stacks and equal configurations, i.e. applying the same communication profile (CEN TS 17496 ) at the receiver and the transmitter, communication is possible.
​
Although an agreed communication profile is a pre-requisite for communications, in no way this implies a specific station architecture. Disregard, to simplify presentation in this document, the ITS station architecture specified in ISO 21217 is used as a reference architecture describing functional blocks similar to the OSI layered communications architecture specified in ISO/IEC 7498-1:1994, i.e. the "Applications" entity, the "Management" entity, the "Security" entity, and the "Access", "Networking & Transport", and "Facilities" layers; see Figure 8.1. Basically the same architecture is applied in HARTS., and in the subsequently developed ARC-IT, (version9) which incorporates HARTS.

Figure 8.1: Simplified ITS station reference architecture (from ISO 21217)
​
Thus, the functionality referred to as "ITS station" (ITS-S) in ISO 21217 can be implemented in different ways, e.g. in dedicated stations (e.g. for vehicles as demanded by vehicle manufacturers), in traffic management centres, in mobile devices such as smart phones, in navigation devices, in roadside furniture, in after-market devices,etc. This example list also indicates the various implementation contexts identified so far in ISO 21217.
​
​
​
​
8.0.4 Basic principles of communications
8.0.4.1 Type of medium
The two basic types of communication media are
-
wired (e.g., cable, fibre-optics) and
-
wireless (e.g., radio waves, light, acoustics).
For each of these types a variety of physical instantiations and protocol details exist.
​
​
​
8.0.4.2 Networking modes
Communications between end-nodes (stations) can be performed as
​
-
localized communications, i.e. communications to nearby stations without involving networking from a source station through nodes of a network to a final destination station – also referred to as "ad-hoc communications", and
-
networked communications, e.g. applying the Internet Protocol or any other protocol supporting routing of packets through nodes of a network.
Localized communications allow for e.g. lowest latency and direct communications with the surrounding; e.g. broadcast of Cooperative Awareness Messages (CAMs) and Signal Phase and Timing (SPAT) message Networked communications typically are used for communications over long distances, quasi continuous sessions, support of non-time-critical applications, and larger amount of data to be transmitted.
​
​
​
8.0.4.3 End-node relations
Disregard whether it is localized or networked communications over a wire or a wireless medium, communications between end-nodes can be for the following purposes:
​
a) Information dissemination (one-to-many) from a sender SA to many receivers Rx which are not necessarily known to the sender. The following distinctions of this multicast communications are given:
-
broadcast: any receiver Rx who can physically receive a message is allowed to read it;
-
groupcast: a receiver Rx who can physically receive a message is allowed to read it only in case this receiver belongs to an identified group of receivers - this requires presence of an appropriate group identifier in the message.
Multicast messages are not acknowledged by a receiver.
To ensure full interoperability,
​
-
broadcast communication requires one single communication profile to be used by all nodes of the broadcast group of stations;
-
groupcast communication requires one single communication profile to be used by all nodes belonging to the same group.
Consequently, offering the same broadcast information dissemination service using different communication profiles by different transmitters is prohibited, as it would require implementing all communication profiles in all nodes.
​
b) Information exchange (one-to-one) is between an end-node NA and one other end-node NB. To exchange messages between NA and NB, these two end-nodes must know their respective communication addresses. Typically, a session initiation is a pre-requisite to start a session-based exchange of messages, and a session termination is used after finalization of the message exchange to correctly close down the link between the end-nodes and disable further communications.
As information exchange is peer-to-peer (with a possible master/slave relation at a functional level), the strict restrictions on communication profiles as given for information dissemination are not applicable. In other words, the communication partners NA and NB could agree on a communication profile for a specific session or in general for all of their sessions. However, for the purpose of session initiation, one commonly agreed communication profile for broadcast of a service announcement message might be necessary. As part of the session initiation using service announcement, the communication profile to be used in a subsequent session can be negotiated according to the capabilities of the two stations.
​
​
​
8.0.5 Communication needs of ITS applications
Selection of one or several appropriate communication profiles depends on the communication needs of EU-ICIP applications that are providing an EU-ICIP service by disseminating and / or exchanging information between the application processes (see ISO 21217 ). Different applications may require quite different communication features and might also need simultaneously different links (one for each flow of data) with different communication features. That expresses the basic need for support of different communication profiles in a single station.
​
Whilst the communication needs of an application process can be hard coded in a station for each flow of an application process, a flexible and thus future-proof approach as specified in EN ISO 17423 is beneficial. EN ISO 17423 specifies how ITS application processes can present their communication needs for each flow to the station management, such that by cross-checking with station capabilities (identified in ISO 24102-6 ) and locally applicable regulations and policies the uppermost appropriate communication profile can be selected by the station management; see Figure 8.2.

Figure 8.2: Automatic selection of communication profiles (from ISO 21217)
This method of path and flow management specified in ISO 24102-6 also supports dynamic real-time hand-over between communication profiles, as specific communication services might not be available at all locations and at any time.
​
8.0.6 Geo-fencing
As communications in general can carry location- and time-dependent information, stations typically either know their fixed location, or have means to estimate their location. Location referencing is explained in CEN/TR 17297-1. How to perform transformations between different location reference systems is specified in CEN/TS 17297-2. This is the basis of geo-fencing, i.e. identifying geographical areas within which specific regulations and policies apply. Geo-fencing is specified in CEN/TS 17380. Complementary to CEN/TS 17380, air quality management is specified in CEN/TS 17378.
​
Geo-fencing can be applied for different issues where regulations and policies must be considered, e.g., regulations of radio matters, privacy, security, traffic rules.
​
The result of geo-fencing is an input to the choice of communication profiles. This usage of geo-fencing is e.g. already implemented and used in the new Volkswagen Golf 8, which disables the ITS station whilst the vehicle is outside of the area of the European Union. [b8.1]
​
A future important usage of geo-fencing is the application of electronic traffic regulations, which is currently under investigation in a new work item on Management for Electronic Traffic Regulations (METR) - General concept and architecture [under development] at CEN/TC 278.
​
Geo-fencing is related to the "Local Dynamic Map" (LDM) specified in EN ISO 18750, which is a storage for time- and location-referenced data together with suitable query mechanisms.
​
8.0.7 Cyber security
Cyber security, strictly speaking, not necessarily belongs to communications. However, the approach to identify ITS communication profiles specified in CEN/TS 17496 considers cyber security as part of communication profiles, as quite often the necessary security means are part of communication protocols (for example TLS using the Internet Protocol Suite).
​
As EU-ICIP use cases deal with safety of human life and properties, information that is disseminated or exchanged must be secured. Whilst basically the communication (at least the access layer, but preferably also the networking & transport layer) can be unsecure, end-to-end security between application processes is needed to ensure:
​
-
confidentiality (access control);
-
data integrity (encryption of data);
-
source authentication (signing of messages);
-
non-repudiation (proof of integrity and origin of data).
This basic principle of end-to-end security between application processes is not strictly applied, e.g.
-
the ETSI GeoNetworking network & transport layer protocol uses IEEE 1609.2 certificates at the network layer for signing of messages;
-
the CEN / ISO approach for secure sessions specified in TS 21177 uses TLS with IEEE 1609.2 certificates, i.e., implements security at the transport layer. An explanatory video on how ISO 21177 works is available at https://app.box.com/s/cp4r8fowyonn9ahw8qxtosg1wqcr8uon.
An important feature of the IEEE 1609.2 certificates used for signing of messages (source authentication) and for secure sessions is to support identification of roles and access rights.
Example 1: Authorization to send a specific message, e.g., indicating "blue light and sirene switched on" will require the role of either "police", "fire brigade", or "emergency service". Although being a valid and acceptable ITS station unit, transmission of such a message is prohibited if the station cannot proof the respective required role.
Example 2: Access to specific data or actuators in a sensor and control network is controlled by configuration files (TS 21184 and TS 21177). If the requester cannot proof the necessary access rights, the request is denied although the request comes from a valid ITS station unit using exactly the correct message.
8.0.8 Facilities
Facilities are allocated in the facilities layer of the ITS station reference architecture, see Figure 8.1 above, corresponding with the OSI layers 5, 6 and 7. In simple words, facilities are located in between the communication protocol stack and the application processes. It is a "matter of taste" whether facilities are considered as part of communications, or as part of the applications. For the purpose of this document, facilities are considered as tools providing general functionality for communications and for applications.
​
Important examples of facilities are:
​
-
the local dynamic map specified in EN 18750, i.e. a storage for location- and time-referenced data;
-
the content subscription handler specified in CEN/TS 17429, i.e. a publish / subscribe mechanism useful to share data received from peer stations with local application processes;
-
a position - velocity - time service specified in ISO/TS 21176 and in the complementary EN 302 890-2 providing kinematic state information of the ego-station;
-
the global transport data management (GTDM) framework specified in ISO/TS 21184, providing e.g. necessary functionality for secure access to sensor and control network data with a precise and strict share of responsibilities and control for what is inside and outside the sensor and control network, and allows to define new messages or modify existing messages by means of configuration files, i.e. without a need to compile software newly;
-
the facilities service handler specified in CEN/TS 17429, i.e. a functionality that can be ordered by application processes to use facilities for finalization of message assembly, e.g. to add a time-stamp or cyber security information.
8.0.9 Service initiation: pre-defined or negotiated communications
Service initiation is explained in detail in ISO/TR 21186-1 Clause 6.2. Beside initiation of information dissemination services by simple broadcast of messages, or by polling an a-priori known URL, an important distinction is between (push) service initiation using service announcement specified in ISO 16460 and EN ISO 22418 and service initiation by a central station for subscribed users. The latter one typically is based on cellular networks and the Internet Protocol.
​
NOTE: In ITS, IPv6 is the currently preferred Internet protocol version for new developments. IPv4 may be tunnelled over IPv6. However, legacy implementations likely are using IPv4 and cannot easily be upgraded.
​
Services are announced by means of the globally unique "ITS Application Identifier" (ITS-AID), also referred to as "Provider Service Identifier" (PSID) in IEEE. Usage of the term "ITS-AID" is recommended for EU-ICIP. Service announcement may be used to indicate a source of information for download, or to initiate a session between the service provider and the service user. In both cases, part of the service initialisation phase is an optional change of communication profile for the service operation phase.
​
EXAMPLE: Whilst the service initialisation phase uses the ITS-G5 / GeoNetworking communication profile for broadcast of the service announcement message, service operation may use e.g.ITS-G5 / IPv6 or ITS-M5 / FNTP , or US-DSRC profile of IEEE 802.11 OCB [/ WAVE or a cellular link.
​
EN 22418 supports the full set of service announcement features, including e.g.
​
-
ITS Application Classes (similar to CEN DSRC BST/VST exchange - distinction of contexts; see ISO 4426;
-
mandatory applications;
-
private communication channels for the session operation phase, e.g. using ITS-M5 RAN frequency band rather than in the C-ITS frequency band at 5,9 GHz;
-
hybrid communications.
[1] The next series of Golf 8 will include further areas, such as Switzerland or Norway, where the ITS station is activated. Applying remote station management as e.g., specified in ISO 24102-2, such updates can be done also in already deployed stations.

8.0.10 Hybrid communications
Due to the diverging requirements from the multiplicity of already known and continuously emerging applications, multiple communication technologies with characteristics that may be fundamentally different or quite similar can be supported in a specific station. Supporting multiple access technologies and communication protocols is referred to as “hybrid communications”. Actually, this was a design principle of the ITS station architecture specified in ISO 21217 which was developed in 2008 / 2009 simultaneously with the activities of the EC-funded CVIS project . The urgent need for hybrid communications was also expressed by the German led EC CONVERGE project 2015, and in 2019 by the C-ITS deployment platform project C-Roads . This need is obvious also for EU-ICIP.
​
Hybrid communications can basically be defined as the composition of multiple access technologies and protocols with different characteristics combined to provide complementary or redundant communication channels. This can arise in multiple situations:
​
- when localized communications, i.e. communication to nearby stations without involving support of an infrastructure network, is combined with networked communications, i.e. communications using support of an infrastructure network, for instance when the V2X communication stack from ETSI is combined with TCP/IP (a typical use-case is black-ice warning);
- when technology-agnostic applications are developed and deployed in a communication system equipped with multiple access technologies with dynamic determination of the most appropriate communication profile;
- when safety critical communications, e.g. for platooning, requires physically independent redundant communication channels such that at least one of these channels provides the necessary information.
Thus, benefits of (managed) hybrid communications are:
​
- redundant communications, e.g. simultaneous usage of physically different links to increase reliability;
- possibility of mixed communications, e.g. to support multiple flows of the same application process with different communication needs;
- support of diverging communication needs from different application processes;
- smooth migration from one technology to an upcoming new one ensuring backward compatibility;
- support of different architectures for service provisioning requiring different communication technologies.
8.0.11 Station management of communications
8.0.11.1 General
ICT devices have at least a feature implemented that allows updating the operating systems. In addition, smart phones are connected to application stores and support download and installation of applications at almost any time and any location. This is a pre-requisite resulting from the very short lifetime of software.
​
Further well-known management features are e.g.:
​
- power consumption management (e.g. especially in battery-powered devices, and in "green" devices);
- interference mitigation (e.g. as available in Wi-Fi routers to select the least occupied frequency channel);
- security management (e.g. download certificates for real-time usage);
- selection of the best suited communication profile (e.g. in smart phone using cellular, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth);
The same applies for EU-ICIP stations (ITS stations).
​
​
​
8.0.11.2 Interference mitigation
Interference in wireless communications typically results from out-of- band emissions of neighbouring radio services, i.e. these out-of-band emissions of an interferer transmitter are in the receive band of the victim receiver. However, other types of interference also are possible. Radio parameters considered in frequency regulation are specified in EN 301 893 for RLAN devices operating in the 5 GHz band, and in EN 302 571 for ITS technologies (currently for ITS-G5 / ITS-M5 operating in the frequency band from 5,855 GHz to 5,925 GHz.
​
The impact of interference on the ITS service related to the victim radio quite often can be described by a statistical approach, identifying time parameters from the interferer radio and the victim radio, recovery mechanisms from the victim service, and power levels of both radios.
Mitigation techniques thus typically affect time parameters and power levels of the interferer radio. An example are the mitigation techniques specified in ETSI TS 102 792 . to protect the European road tolling service based on CEN DSRC from interference caused by ITS-G5 / ITS-M5 / US-DSRC profile of IEEE 802.11 OCB [/ WAVE.
8.0.11.3 Communication profiles
Whilst communication profiles could be basically considered as an off-line approach to distinguish different parameterized communication protocol stacks, actually the respective globally unique identifiers are used in real-time for general path and flow management. Details of path and flow management can be used e.g.
​
- for interference mitigation;
- for mapping of communications to application needs specified in ISO 24102-6 and EN 17423 ;
- for service announcement specified in EN 22418 ;
- in support of communication technology migration;
- in support of backward compatibility;
- in support of portability of applications.
8.0.11.4 Lifecycle management
The management of the lifecycle of an ITS station typically is under the control of the "owner" of the station using a "station management centre" of the owner, also referred to as the "host management centre" in the CVIS project, or the "ITS-SCU management centre" in ISO 24102-2 ISO 24102-2 specifies features of remote station management including lifecycle management, considering different communication contexts. It is a functional tool-box rather than a normative specification of technical details.
8.0.11.5 Security management
Requirements on security are partly standardized (technical tools) and partly defined by system operators or by regulation. Remote station management specified in ISO 24102-2 and local station management specified in ISO 24102-1 re tools in support of security management.
8.0.11.6 Geo-fencing
Geo-fencing is a feature related to local station management specified in ISO 24102-1 and to remote station management specified in ISO 24102-2 The local part deals first of all with identifying the position of the ego-station as specified in CEN/TS 21176, and the remote part deals with downloading of information from the ITS-SCU management centre that is applicable at the given location. Usage of this information is specified in various Sections of this document; see also 8.1.6.
8.0.11.7 Pseudonym management
Pseudonyms are used to mask real identities. As pseudonyms can be used at different layers of the communication protocol stack, simultaneous switching of all of them must be ensured; see also ISO 24102-1.
8.1 Legacy communication technologies
8.1.1 General
Many complementary and competitive communication technologies were developed so far, some of which were adopted by the market. The technologies considered may provide part of a protocol stack, or a complete protocol stack. With respect of networking, five classes are usually distinguished:
​
-
No networking; i.e., localized communications;
-
"Wide area network" (WAN);
-
"Metropolitan area network" (MAN);
-
"Local area network" (LAN);
-
"Personal area network" (PAN).
The borderline between WAN and MAN, and between MAN and LAN is a bit ambiguous, and thus a mapping to the one or the other network class is either according to the choice of related standards, or according to a personal choice.
​
The following sections provide an overview and classification of such technologies that are already in operation for the EU-ICIP use cases.
​
8.1.2 IP suites of protocols
The Internet Protocol (IP) is the principal communications protocol in the Internet protocol suite for relaying datagrams across network boundaries. Its routing function enables internetworking, and essentially establishes the Internet.
​
IP has the task of delivering packets from a source node to a destination node via other network nodes solely based on the IP addresses in the packet headers.
​
Historically, IP was the connectionless datagram service in the original Transmission Control Program introduced in 1974, which was complemented by a connection-oriented service that became the basis for the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). The Internet protocol suite is therefore often referred to as TCP/IP.
​
The first major version of IP, Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4), currently still is the dominant protocol of the Internet. Its successor is the Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6), which has been in increasing deployment on the public Internet since about 2006.
​
The Internet protocol is located in the OSI layer 3, and the related transport protocols are located in the OSI layer 4.
​
The IP is applicable for many different higher layer protocols, and many different lower layer protocols (wired and wireless).
8.
8.1.3 Cellular technologies (WANs)
8.1.3.1 2G
2G is an acronym identifying the second generation of cellular networks.
​
With the "General Packet Radio Service" (GPRS), 2G offers a theoretical maximum transfer speed of 40 kbit/s. With EDGE (Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution), there is a theoretical maximum transfer speed of 384 kbit/s. 2G has lost its relevance due to the subsequent cellular technology generations with better performance.
In some countries (but by no means all) allocated band is being refarmed to 4G or 5G.
​
2G remains the basic technology required in the EU regulation for the eCall service.
​​
8.1.3.2 3G
3G is an acronym identifying the third generation of cellular networks.
​
3G is based on a set of standards used for mobile devices and mobile telecommunications use services and networks that comply with the "International Mobile Telecommunications-2000" (IMT-2000) specifications published by the International Telecommunication Union.
3G telecommunication networks offer an information transfer rate of at least 144 kbit/s.
​
3G is used for e.g. wireless voice telephony, mobile Internet access, fixed wireless Internet access, video calls and mobile TV.
3G has lost its relevance due to the subsequent cellular technology generations with better performance.
In some countries (but by no means all) allocated band is being refarmed to 4G or 5G
​
8.1.3.3 4G - LTE
4G and LTE ("Long Term Evolution") are acronyms identifying the fourth generation of cellular networks.(3GPP Release 8).
A 4G system formally must provide capabilities defined by ITU in the "IMT Advanced" specification. However, the first release versions of LTE (and Mobile WiMAX) support much less than the required 1 Gbit/s peak bit rate, and thus are not fully IMT-Advanced compliant, but nevertheless are often branded 4G by service providers. LTE Advanced (LTE-A) (and mobile WiMAX Release 2 - also known as WirelessMAN-
Advanced or IEEE 802.16m) are IMT-Advanced compliant backwards compatible versions of the above two systems.
IMT-Advanced specified peak speed requirements for 4G service at 100 megabits per second (Mbit/s) for high mobility communication (such as from trains and cars) and 1 gigabit per second (Gbit/s) for low mobility communication (such as pedestrians and stationary users).
4G does not support the traditional circuit-switched telephony service, but instead relies on Internet Protocol (IP) based communication such as IP telephony.
Potential and current applications include amended mobile web access, IP telephony, gaming services, high-definition mobile TV, video conferencing, and 3D television.
8.1.3.4 Wi-Fi (WLAN)
Wi-Fi is a family of wireless network protocols specified in IEEE 802.11 which are commonly used for local area networking of devices, and for wireless access to the Internet. Wi‑Fi is a trademark of the non-profit Wi-Fi Alliance, which restricts the use of the term "Wi-Fi Certified" to products that successfully complete interoperability certification testing.
​
​
8.1.3.5 IEEE 802.15.4 based WPANs
8.1.3.5.1General
The standard IEEE 802.15.4 provides a "Wireless Medium Access Control" and "Physical Layer" specifications for low rate "Wireless Personal Area Networks" (WPAN). Based on this standard, various WPAN specifications are in use:
​
-
Zigbee - see 8.1.3.5.2;
-
6LowPAN - see 8.1.3.5.3;
-
Bluetooth - see 8.1.3.5.4;
8.1.3.5.2 Zigbee
Zigbee is a specification for a low-power, low data rate, and close proximity wireless personal area (ad hoc) network (WPAN) based on the standard IEEE 802.15.4 .
​
Its low power consumption limits single-hop line-of-sight transmission distances to the range of 10 meters up to 100 meters, depending on power output and environmental characteristics. Zigbee devices can transmit data over long distances by passing data through a mesh network of intermediate devices to reach more distant ones.
​
Zigbee is typically used in low data rate applications that require long battery life and secure networking (Zigbee networks are secured by 128-bit symmetric encryption keys.) Zigbee has a defined rate of 250 kbit/s suited for intermittent data transmissions from a sensor or input device.
​
With a suite of high-level communication protocols, Zigbee aims on home automation, medical device data collection, and other low-power low-bandwidth needs, designed for small scale projects which need wireless connection with short-range low-rate wireless data transfer.
​
The technology defined by the Zigbee specification is intended to be simpler and less expensive than other WPANs, such as Bluetooth or more general wireless networking such as Wi-Fi.

8.1.3.5.3 6LowPAN
6LoWPAN is an acronym of "IPv6 over Low -Power Wireless Personal Area Networks", developed by a working group in the IETF. The base specification developed by the 6LoWPAN IETF group is RFC 4944 (updated by RFC 6282 with header compression, and by RFC 6775 with neighbour discovery optimizations). The problem statement document is RFC 4919. IPv6 over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is defined in RFC 7668.
The 6LoWPAN concept originated from the idea that "the Internet Protocol could and should be applied even to the smallest devices," and that low-power devices with limited processing capabilities should be able to participate in the Internet of Things.
​
The 6LoWPAN group has defined encapsulation and header compression mechanisms that allow IPv6 packets to be sent and received over IEEE 802.15.4 based networks. IEEE 802.15.4 devices provide sensing communication ability in the wireless domain.
The standards ISO 19079 on 6LowPAN and ISO 19080 on the CoAP facility specify usage of 6LowPAN in the context of an ITS station.
​
8.1.3.5.4 Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard used for exchanging data between fixed and mobile devices over short distances (using UHF radio waves in the industrial, scientific and medical radio bands, from 2.402 GHz to 2.480 GHz), and building personal area networks (PANs). Bluetooth initially was specified in IEEE 802.15.1; however, this standard is no more maintained.
​
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) is now responsible for the development of the specification, manages the qualification program, and protects the trademarks. A manufacturer must meet Bluetooth SIG standards to market it as a Bluetooth device. Various patents apply to the technology, which are licensed to individual qualifying devices.
​
The "Bluetooth low energy" (BLE) version, also referred to as "Bluetooth smart", is independent of and incompatible with Bluetooth BR/EDR; however, BR/EDR and LE can coexist. BLE is intended to provide considerably reduced power consumption and cost while maintaining a similar communication range.
​
8.1.3.6 Other networking technologies
8.1.3.6.1 SigFox
SigFox points to the "low-power wide-area network" (LPWAN) wireless networks technology of a French global network operator that is designed to connect low-power objects such as electricity meters and smartwatches, which need to be continuously on and emitting small amounts of data. SigFox is operated in the Industrial, Scientific and Medical ISM radio bands at 868 MHz in the European Union, and at 902 MHz in the USA. It utilizes a wide-reaching signal that passes freely through solid objects, called "Ultra Narrowband" and requires little energy. The network is based on a one-hop star topology and requires a mobile operator to carry the generated traffic. The signal can also be used to easily cover large areas and to reach underground objects.
SigFox is not based on a standard.
8.1.3.6.2 LoRa
LoRa (Long Range) is a low-power wide-area network protocol developed by Cycleo and acquired by Semtech, the founding member of the LoRa Alliance.
​
The LoRa Alliance is a "501(c) association" created in 2015 to support LoRaWAN (long range wide-area network) protocol as well as ensure interoperability of all LoRaWAN products and technologies.
​
LoRa uses license-free sub-gigahertz radio frequency bands like 433 MHz, 868 MHz (Europe), 915 MHz (Australia and North America), 865 MHz to 867 MHz (India) and 923 MHz (Asia). LoRa enables long-range transmissions (more than 10 km in rural areas) with low power consumption. The specification covers only the physical layer. Other technologies and protocols such as LoRaWAN cover the upper layers. It can achieve data rate from 27 bps to 300 bps.
​
LoRa devices have geolocation capabilities used for trilateration of positions of devices (via timestamps from gateways).
LoRa and LoRaWAN permit long-range connectivity for Internet of things (IoT) devices in different types of industries.
Range extenders for LoRaWAN are called LoRaX.
​
8.1.3.7 Localized communication technologies
8.1.3.7.1 CEN DSRC
The CEN "Dedicated Short-Range Communication" (DSRC) technology has been developed specifically to provide a reliable and effective communication means for traffic and transport applications with a very few short messages in high speed single lane and multilane free flow environments. CEN DSRC is required in the EU regulation of the "European Electronic Toll Service" (EETS). The EETS regulation also refers to the Italian DSRC (high data rate DSRC).
It is to be noted that the term DSRC is used in the USA to indicate a Wi-Fi mode for communications in ITS; this is referred to as US-DSRC in this document.
​
The CEN DSRC technology can be characterised by the following features:
​
-
roadside units (RSU) with active transceivers, and low-power (battery-operated) on-board units (OBU) applying back scatter technology (battery lifetime beyond 7 years);
-
small and constrained communication zones - typically 5 m to 25 m;
-
supports point-to-point and broadcast communications;
-
uses the 5,8 GHz band designated by the European Communications Office;
-
high reliability, fast connection and low latency;
-
capable of serving multiple applications;
-
suitable for use in high speed single and multilane free flow systems.
Below are some examples of applications that use DSRC:
-
Electronic fee collection;
-
Access control to restricted areas;
-
Electronic parking payments;
-
Compliance checking of tachograph for heavy goods vehicles;
-
Compliance checking of weights and dimensions for heavy goods vehicles;
-
Emergency warning system for vehicles;
-
Vehicle safety inspection;
-
Transit or emergency vehicle signal priority;
-
Commercial vehicle clearance and safety inspections;
-
In-vehicle signing;
-
Probe data collection;
-
Highway-rail interSection warning.
The CEN DSRC technology has been adopted in the following European Regulations:
-
European Electronic Toll Service (EETS ) ;
-
Tachographs in road transport (ELI) [R1];
-
Maximum authorised dimensions and weights for road motor vehicles [R2].
Overview of CEN DSRC standards
CEN/TC 278 has produced the CEN DSRC requirements series of standards (EN 12253, EN 12795, EN 12834), whereas ETSI has produced the associated test specifications. ISO published the International Standard ISO 4426 containing the requirements from the CEN DSRC standards.
​
An overview on DSRC and EFC standards is published on the website of CEN/TC 278 .
8.1.3.7.2Technologies based on IEEE 802.11p (OCB mode at 5,9 GHz)
Whilst basic WiFi specified in IEEE 802.11 belongs to WLANs supporting networking, the OCB mode introduced in the edition 2016 of IEEE 802.11 (originally referred to as 802.11p) is designed for localized communications. This OCB mode is further detailed for ITS by means of profile standards of IEEE 802.11, i.e. in
​
-
ISO 21215 (ITS-M5)
-
ETSI EN 302 663 (ITS-G5),
-
IEEE 1609.4 (US-DSRC).
ITS-G5 was identified in the draft C-ITS Delegated act of the European Commission as one of the key communication technologies, being the only validated technology for localized communications so far.
​
Various protocol stacks are identified:
​
-
ITS-M5 with FNTP specified in ISO 29281-1 ;
-
US-DSRC with WSMP specified in IEEE 1609.3 ;
-
ITS-G5 with GeoNetworking specified in the series of ETSI EN 302 636-x standards -1, -2, -3 , -4, -5
It is to be noted that ITS-M5 and US-DSRC are compliant with IEEE 802.11 whilst ITS-G5 is not, as it is still using LPD instead of EPD at the MAC layer to identify the applicable upper layer protocol. "Smart" implementations can automatically distinguish LPD and EPD in the receive path.
Major benefits of IEEE 802.11p over CEN-DSRC are:
-
much wider communication zones (longer communication range);
-
higher data rates;
-
bigger messages;
-
supporting a large variety of higher layer protocols.
8.1.3.7.3 Smart cards
Smart cards communicate with readers either via the wired interface given by the contacts on the smart card, or via a wireless interface.
Both interfaces used for smart cards use "silo interface technologies", i.e. these interface technologies are used only for smart cards, and will not be used in a different context. Nevertheless, for completeness of this document, the standards specifying contactless smart cards and their wireless communications interface are given in ISO/IEC 14443-1, ISO/IEC 14443-2, ISO/IEC 14443-3, ISO/IEC 14443-4 .
8.1.4 Identified communication profiles
The concept of communication protocol stacks and communication profiles initially is specified in EN 17419 . Related globally unique numbering schemes are specified in CEN/TS 17496 . The following communication protocol stacks and communication profiles are already identified and can be referenced by a globally unique identifier.

8.3.1.1 ISO 4426, Intelligent transport systems — Lower layer protocols for usage in the European digital tachograph
This document specifies communication requirements in support of the "Smart Digital Tachograph" (SDT) as identified by Regulation[23] of the European Union.
The specifications cover:
• the "Physical Layer" at 5,8 GHz for "SDT Communications" (SDTC);
• the "Data Link Layer" (DLL) of SDTC;
• the "Application Layer" of SDTC;
• SDTC profiles which provide coherent sets of communication tools for applications based on SDTC.
This document provides further information beneficial for the design and development of SDTC equipment.
​
​
8.3.1.2 ISO/IEC 7498-1:1994, Information technology — Open Systems Interconnection — Basic Reference Model: The Basic Model
The purpose of this Reference Model of Open Systems Interconnection is to provide a common basis for the coordination of standards development for the purpose of systems interconnection, while allowing existing standards to be placed into perspective within the overall Reference Model.
​
The term Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) qualifies standards for the exchange of information among systems that are “open” to one another for this purpose by virtue of their mutual use of the applicable standards.
​
The fact that a system is open does not imply any particular systems implementation, technology or means of interconnection, but refers to the mutual recognition and support of the applicable standards.
It is also the purpose of this Reference Model to identify areas for developing or improving standards, and to provide a common reference for maintaining consistency of all related standards. It is not the intent of this Reference Model either to serve as an implementation specification, or to be a basis for appraising the conformance of actual implementations, or to provide a sufficient level of detail to define precisely the services and protocols of the interconnection architecture. Rather, this Reference Model provides a conceptual and functional framework which allows international teams of experts to work productively and independently on the development of standards for each layer of the Reference Model for OSI.
​
The Reference Model has sufficient flexibility to accommodate advances in technology and expansion in user demands. This flexibility is also intended to allow the phased transition from existing implementations to OSI standards.
​
While the scope of the general architectural principles required for OSI is very broad, this Reference Model is primarily concerned with systems comprising terminals, computers, and associated devices and the means for transferring information between such systems. Other aspects of OSI requiring attention are described briefly
​
The description of the Basic Reference Model of OSI is developed in stages:
​
Clause 4 establishes the reasons for Open Systems Interconnection, defines what is being connected, the scope of the interconnection, and describes the modelling principles used in OSI.
Clause 5 describes the general nature of the architecture of the Reference Model; namely that it is layered, what layering means, and the principles used to describe layers.
​
Clause 6 names, and introduces the specific layers of the architecture.
​
Clause 7 provides the description of the specific layers.
​
Clause 8 provides the description of Management Aspects of OSI.
​
Clause 9 specifies compliance and consistency with the OSI Reference Model.
​
An indication of how the layers were chosen is given in Annex A to this Basic Reference Model.
​
Additional aspects of this Reference Model beyond the basic aspects are described in several parts. The first part describes the Basic Reference Model. The second part describes the architecture for OSI Security. The third part describes OSI Naming and Addressing. The fourth describes OSI System Management.
​
The Basic Reference Model serves as a framework for the definition of services and protocols which fit within the boundaries established by the Reference Model.
​
In those few cases where a feature is explicitly marked (optional) in the Basic Reference Model it should remain optional in the corresponding service or protocol (even if at a given instant the two cases of the option are not yet documented).
​
This Reference Model does not specify services and protocols for OSI. It is neither an implementation specification for systems, nor a basis for appraising the conformance of implementations.
​
For standards which meet the OSI requirements, a small number of practical subsets are defined from optional functions, to facilitate implementation and compatibility.
​
8.3.1.3 ISO/IEC 14443-1:2018, Cards and security devices for personal identification — Contactless proximity objects — Part 1: Physical characteristics
ISO/IEC 14443-1:2018 defines the physical characteristics of proximity cards (PICCs).
ISO/IEC 14443-1:2018 is intended to be used in conjunction with other parts of ISO/IEC 14443.
8.3.1.4 ISO/IEC 14443-2:2020, Cards and security devices for personal identification — Contactless proximity objects — Part 2: Radio frequency power and signal interface
This document specifies the characteristics of the fields to be provided for power and bi-directional communication between proximity coupling devices (PCDs) and proximity cards or objects (PICCs).
This document does not specify the means of generating coupling fields, nor the means of compliance with electromagnetic radiation and human exposure regulations, which can vary depending on the country.
​
8.3.1.5 ISO/IEC 14443-3:2018, Cards and security devices for personal identification — Contactless proximity objects — Part 3: Initialization and anticollision
his part of ISO/IEC 14443 describes the following:
- polling for proximity cards or objects (PICCs) entering the field of a proximity coupling device (PCD);
- the byte format, the frames and timing used during the initial phase of communication between PCDs and PICCs;
- the initial Request and Answer to Request command content;
- methods to detect and communicate with one PICC among several PICCs (anticollision);
- other parameters required to initialize communications between a PICC and PCD;
- optional means to ease and speed up the selection of one PICC among several PICCs based on application criteria;
- optional capability to allow a device to alternate between the functions of a PICC and a PCD to communicate with a PCD or a PICC, respectively. A device which implements this capability is called a PXD.
Protocol and commands used by higher layers and by applications and which are used after the initial phase are described in ISO/IEC 14443‑4.
This part of ISO/IEC 14443 is applicable to PICCs of Type A and of Type B (as described in ISO/IEC 14443‑2) and PCDs (as described in ISO/IEC 14443‑2) and to PXDs.
NOTE 1 Part of the timing of data communication is defined in ISO/IEC 14443‑2.
NOTE 2 Test methods for this part of ISO/IEC 14443 are defined in ISO/IEC 10373‑6.

8.3.1.7 ISO 14812, Intelligent transport systems — Vocabulary
Approved. Awaiting publication.
8.3.1.8 ISO 14813-1:2015, Intelligent transport systems — Reference model architecture(s) for the ITS sector — Part 1: ITS service domains, service groups and services
This part of ISO 14813 provides a description of the primary services that an ITS implementation can provide to ITS users. Those services with a common purpose can be collected together in “'ITS service domains'” and within these there can be a number of “'ITS service groups'” for particular parts of the domain. This part of ISO 14813 identifies thirteen service domains, within which numerous groups are then defined.
​
In this version of this part of ISO 14813 an indication has been provided to show the relationship of each service to Cooperative-ITS.
​
Cooperative-ITS provides services that have previously been unavailable, notably those for ITS users who are on the move. For many other services, Cooperative-ITS can actually be seen as a "delivery mechanism" that can be used to enhance their use and availability. Thus for some services, Cooperative-ITS is essential, whilst for others it adds value. However for a small number of services it is not relevant.
​
This part of ISO 14813 is intended for use by at least two groups of people involved in the ITS sector. The first group is those looking for ideas about the services that ITS implementations can provide and the second is for those who are developing standards.
​
For the first group, this part of ISO 14813 provides service descriptions that can act as the catalyst for more detailed descriptions. It is possible for the level of detail to differ from one ITS implementation to another, depending on whether or not a national ITS architecture is involved, and whether this architecture is based directly on services, or on groups of functions.
​
For standards developers, this part of ISO 14813 is applicable to the working groups of ISO TC 204 and other Technical Committees who are developing standards for the ITS sector and associated sectors whose boundaries cross into the ITS sector (such as some aspects of public transport (transit), plus inter-modal freight and fleet management). This part of ISO 14813 is designed to provide information and explanation of services that can form the basis and reason for developing standards.
​
This part of ISO 14813 is, in itself, by its nature, advisory and informative. It is designed to assist the integration of services into a cohesive reference architecture, plus interoperability and the use of common data definitions. Specifically, services defined within the service groups shall be the basis for definition of 'use cases', 'user needs' or "user service requirements' depending on the methodology being used to develop the resultant ITS architecture functionality, along with definition of applicable data within data dictionaries, as well as applicable communications and data exchange standards.
8.3.1.9 ISO 14816:2005, Road transport and traffic telematics — Automatic vehicle and equipment identification — Numbering and data structure
Overall numbering scheme
This International Standard establishes a common framework data structure for unambiguous identification in RTTT/ITS systems. It excludes any physical aspects such as interfaces. It is neither frequency- nor air interface protocol-specific.
​
Data elements that form part of transmission or storage protocols such as headers, frame markers and checksums are thus excluded.
The specifications for protecting against changes, classifying and qualifying security aspects of the data structure elements are not included within this International Standard.
​
The principles of data element structure and description determined in ISO/IEC 8824, ISO/IEC 8825-1 and ISO/IEC 8825-2 have been adopted to provide an interoperable architecture within a standard framework according to guidelines from ISO/TC 204 and CEN/TC 278.
This International Standard defines data structures based on the ISO/IEC 8824-1 ASN.1 UNIVERSAL CLASS types that may be directly IMPORTED to other application standards that would need only subsets of the full APPLICATION CLASS types. These UNIVERSAL CLASS and APPLICATION CLASS types are uniquely defined as an ASN.1 module in Annex B. This module may be directly linked into an application data definition.
​
This International Standard defines default encoding for simple AVI/AEI applications where no other relevant application standard exists. This definition forms Clause 4.
​
AVI/AEI numbering scheme
The principal registered schemes for AVI/AEI are determined in 4.7 and 4.8 of this International Standard. Other relevant and interoperable schemes are detailed in subsequent clauses and subclauses.
​
The structures defined in this International Standard provide interoperability, not only between simple AVI/AEI and more complex RTTT/ITS functions, but also with pre-existing International Standards (e.g. ISO 10374).
​
There is one Central Registration Authority that administers the AVI numbering scheme according to the rules of CEN and ISO (see Annex A).
​
The choices available to the issuer to operate its structure include, amongst others:
​
— simple identification, in which case the separate identities may be openly available, at the discretion of the issuer or nation state;
— an alias basis, in which case the “identities” are known, but secured under provisions of data protection to maintain privacy and therefore not available; and
— dynamically encrypted identities in an anonymous system.

8.3.1.10 ISO 14823:2017, Intelligent transport systems — Graphic data dictionary
This document specifies a graphic data dictionary, a system of standardised codes for existing road traffic signs and pictograms used to deliver Traffic and Traveller Information (TTI). The coding system can be used in the formation of messages within intelligent transport systems.
​
This document specifies the application interface in the context of electronic fee collection (EFC) systems using the dedicated short-range communication (DSRC).
​
The EFC application interface is the EFC application process interface to the DSRC application layer.
This document comprises specifications of:
​
— EFC attributes (i.e. EFC application information) that can also be used for other applications and/or interfaces,
— the addressing procedures of EFC attributes and (hardware) components (e.g. ICC and MMI),
— EFC application functions, i.e. further qualification of actions by definitions of the concerned services, assignment of associated
-
ActionType values and content and meaning of action parameters,— the EFC transaction model, which defines the common elements and steps of any EFC transaction,
-
the behaviour of the interface so as to ensure interoperability on an EFC-DSRC application interface level.
This is an interface standard, adhering to the open systems interconnection (OSI) philosophy (see ISO/IEC 7498-1), and it is as such not primarily concerned with the implementation choices to be realised at either side of the interface.
​
This document provides security-specific functionality as place holders (data and functions) to enable the implementation of secure EFC transactions. Yet the specification of the security policy (including specific security algorithms and key management) remains at the discretion and under the control of the EFC operator, and hence is outside the scope of this document.
8.3.1.12 ISO 15628:2013, Road transport and traffic telematics — Dedicated short range communication (DSRC) — DSRC application layer
Note: A technically equivalent standard exists in CEN: EN 12834
This International Standard specifies the application layer core which provides communication tools for applications based on DSRC. These tools consist of kernels that can be used by application processes via service primitives. The application processes, including application data and application-specific functions, are outside the scope of this International Standard.
​
This International Standard is named “application layer”, although it does not cover all functionality of OSI Layer 7 and it includes functionality from lower layers.
​
It uses services provided by DSRC data link layer, and covers functionality of intermediate layers of the “OSI Basic Reference Model” (ISO/IEC 7498-1).
​
The following subjects are covered by this International Standard:
-
application layer structure and framework;
-
services to enable data transfer and remote operations;
-
application multiplexing procedure;
-
fragmentation procedure;
-
concatenation and chaining procedures;
-
common encoding rules to translate data from abstract syntax ASN.1 (ISO/IEC 8824-1) into transfer syntax (ISO/IEC 8825-2:2008) and vice versa;
-
communication initialisation and release procedures;
-
broadcast service support;
-
DSRC management support including communication profile handling; and
-
extensibility for different lower layer services and application interfaces.
It is outside the scope of this International Standard to define a security policy. Some transport mechanisms for security-related data are provided.
NOTE No implementation of the “broadcast pool” functionality has become known. “Broadcast pool” functionality is therefore considered untested.

8.3.1.13 ISO 16460, Intelligent transport systems — Communications access for land mobiles (CALM) — Communication protocol messages for global usage
Note: Specifies messages harmonized with IEEE 1609.3.
This document specifies the following:
​
— the Localized Message (LM) format: an NPDU of a networking and transport layer protocol that does not support routing of a packet through a network;
— the Service Advertisement Message (SAM): an APDU to be transported in for example, an LM;
— the Service Response Message (SRM): an APDU acknowledging a SAM that offered a service based on an ITS application class[8] to be transported in for example, an LM;
— the related basic requirements for procedures.
Specifications are partly achieved by normative references to IEEE 1609.3TM-2016.
NOTE These message format specifications and basic procedures need to be complemented by complete procedures and SAP specifications according to the context of usage, i.e. an ITS station specified in ISO 21217,[2] or a WAVE device specified in IEEE 1609.0TM[11] or any other context.

​
This document specifies the following items related to probe vehicle systems (PVS), i.e. systems collecting probe data from private vehicles and processing these probe data statistically towards useful information that can be provided to various end users:
​
— architecture of the PVS in support of appropriate protection of data integrity and anonymity in the PVS;
— security criteria and requirements for the PVS, specifically requirements for data integrity protection and privacy;
— requirements for correct and anonymous generation and handling of probe data.

8.3.1.17 ISO/TS 17425:2016, Intelligent transport systems — Co-operative systems — Data exchange specification for in-vehicle presentation of external road and traffic related data
Note: Under Vienna Agreement: CEN TS 17425:2016
This Technical Specification specifies the In-Vehicle Signage service and application that delivers In-Vehicle Signage information to ITS stations (vehicle ITS stations or personal ITS stations devices) concerning road and traffic conditions, qualified by road authorities/operators, in a consistent way with road authority’s/operator’s requirements, in the manner that is coherent with the information that would be displayed on a road sign or variable message sign (VMS).
​
NOTE A Variable Message Sign is also named dynamic message sign. Both terms are considered as synonyms and can be used interchangeably. In the text below, only variable message sign and its abbreviated term VMS are used.
This Technical Specification defines the following:
​
— the In-Vehicle Signage service and the In-Vehicle Signage application that instantiates this ITS service;
— the requirements to be fulfilled by the In-Vehicle Signage service;
— the requirements for using functions provided by the ITS station facilities layer supporting the use of the In-Vehicle Signage service;
— the ITS-S application processes in the different ITS station, that instantiate the In-Vehicle Signage ITS service.
​
This Technical Specification also specifies: the sets of communication requirements and objectives (profiles) using the methods defined in ISO/TS 17423 to select the level of performance (best effort or real-time, etc.), confidence and security (authentication, encryption, etc.) for each communication flow between ITS stations in the scope of the In-Vehicle Signage service.
​
This Technical Specification defines the selection of relevant functions and procedures provided by the ITS station facilities layer (ISO/TS 17429) and defines the message structure, content, syntax, atomic elements to be used by the In-Vehicle Signage application.
​
NOTE This application is colloquially called “In-Vehicle Signage”.
​
The In-Vehicle Signage service includes the on-board information management. This management ensures contextual coherence of the end-user ITS service (e.g. vehicle characteristics, message priority, etc. avoiding amongst others things the presentation of conflicting information to end-users).
​
The production of information supporting the In-Vehicle Signage application, its qualification, and its relevance are out of the scope of this Technical Specification.
​
This Technical Specification does not specify the design of in-vehicle Human Machine Interfaces (HMI), but it does specify requirements that such interfaces shall be capable of supporting in order to permit the correct dissemination and use of information provided by the In-Vehicle Signage service.

8.3.1.18 ISO/TS 17426:2016, Intelligent Transport Systems — Cooperative Systems — Contextual speeds
​
Note: Under Vienna Agreement: CEN TS 17426
​
This Technical Specification
​
— specifies the Contextual Speed Information Service, namely the general requirements regarding the provision of the Contextual Speed Information Service, the data flow supporting the service, and the presentation of the service result,
— specifies the requirements to be fulfilled by the Contextual Speed Information Service,
— specifies the ITS Station (ITS-S) application processes of the vehicle ITS station, roadside ITS station, central ITS station, and personal ITS station that are required to instantiate the Contextual Speed Information Service,
— specifies sets of communication requirements and objectives (profiles) using the methods defined in ISO 17423 to select the level of performance (best effort or real-time, etc.), confidence and security (authentication, encryption, etc.) for each Contextual Speed Information Service communication flow between ITS stations,
— selects relevant functions and procedures provided by the ITS station facilities layer (see ISO 17429), and
— specifies messages, messages sets structure, content, and syntax to be used by the Contextual Speed Information Service.
​
This Technical Specification considers the scenario for the transmission of Contextual Speed information from the infrastructure/roadside to the vehicle, for onward presentation to the vehicle’s driver. This scenario foresees that the calculation of Contextual Speed information is performed on the Infrastructure side, not within the vehicle.
​
Mandatory speed limits or advisory speed recommendations are output of the Contextual Speed Information Service which (in the scenario considered in this Technical Specification) is run by the Road Operator in its Traffic Control Centre or comparable infrastructure (e.g. Roadside ITS Station). To transfer this information to the vehicle (and therefore the driver) over the air (wireless communication), defined messages are required. These messages are specified in this Technical Specification.
​
When Contextual Speed information arrives in the vehicle, further pre-processing might be necessary before the Contextual Speed information, and, if available, additional explanations on speed limits or recommendations, can be presented to the driver. This Technical Specification specifies the requirements that need to be fulfilled when processing the messages. It does not specify how the vehicle handles the incoming messages.
​
The production of information supporting this application, its qualification and its relevance are out of the scope of this Technical Specification.
​
This Technical Specification addresses Use Case 1 “Provision of mandatory speed limit information into vehicle – for driver awareness purposes” and Use Case 2 “Provision of advisory speed information into vehicle – for driver awareness purposes”.

8.3.1.19 ISO 17427-1:2018, Intelligent Transport Systems — Cooperative Systems — Roles and responsibilities in the context of co-operative ITS based on architecture(s) for co-operative systems
​
Note: Under Vienna Agreement: EN 17427-1
​
This International Standard contains a detailed description of the (actor invariant) ‘Roles and Responsibilities’ required to deploy and operate Cooperative-ITS (C-ITS). The organization / organization of actors / roles described in this document are designed to be appropriate for any fully operational system that uses the C-ITS concepts and techniques in order to achieve its service provision. This International Standard is presented in terms of an ‘Organizational’ or ‘Enterprise’ Viewpoint as defined in ISO/IEC 10746 Open Distributed Processing.
​
This International Standard, "Roles and Responsibilities in the context of Cooperative-ITS based on architecture(s) for cooperative systems” is for all types of road traffic of all classes, and for any other actors involved in the provision of applications and services which use C-ITS techniques to achieve service provision. The description of roles is technology agnostic and, in terms of Cooperative-ITS, agnostic in respect of communication modes and embraces vehicle-vehicle communications, vehicle-infrastructure communications and infrastructure-infrastructure communications.
​
This International Standard provides a methodology for the identification of service specific roles and their corresponding responsibilities based on a process oriented approach. Additionally, the methodology is used to identify the roles and responsibilities for Cooperative-ITS in general. Both the methodology as well as the roles and responsibilities for Cooperative-ITS are deduced from ISO/IEC 10746, the reference model of ‘Open Distributed Processing'. Open Distributed Processing offers five viewpoints of which the Enterprise Viewpoint corresponds with the ‘Organizational Architecture’ – and its roles and responsibilities.
​
To limit the scope of the document to the core of Cooperative-ITS, the roles are separated into ‘external’ and ‘internal’. Considered to be internal are all roles that are highly relevant for the purpose of achieving service provision by means of Cooperative-ITS. Considered to be external are all roles involved in Cooperative-ITS, but not set up only for the purpose of Cooperative-ITS.
​
This International Standard provides a description of a high-level architectural viewpoint on Cooperative-ITS. It is designed to be used as a blueprint when implementing service provision systems that use Cooperative-ITS, and the corresponding organizational structures. The characteristics of Cooperative-ITS entail a huge number of data / information exchanges – therefore the implementation stringently needs to respect privacy and data protection as it is defined in ISO/TR 12859 and in national laws and regulations (where instantiated). Privacy and data protection affects all roles defined in this International Standard due to these characteristics and all actors occupying roles in Cooperative-ITS need to respect the corresponding standards and regulations.

8.3.1.20 ISO/TS 17429:2017, Intelligent transport systems — Cooperative ITS — ITS station facilities for the transfer of information between ITS stations
This Technical Specification specifies generic mechanisms enabling the exchange of information between ITS stations for applications related to Intelligent Transport Systems. It complies with the ITS station reference architecture (ISO 21217) and defines the following ITS station facilities layer functionalities:
​
— Communication Profile Handler (CPH);
— Content Subscription Handler (CSH);
— Facilities Services Handler (FSH).
These functionalities are used by ITS-S application processes (ITS-S-AP) to communicate with other ITS-S application processes and share information. These functionalities describe:
​
— how lower-layer communication services assigned to a given data flow are applied to the service data units at the various layers in the communication protocol stack (CPH):
​
— how content from data dictionaries can be published and subscribed to by ITS-S application processes (CSH),
​
— how well-known ITS station facilities layer and management services can be applied to application process data units (FSH), relieving (ITS-S) application processes from having to implement these services on their own,
​
— how service access points (SAP) primitives specified in ISO 24102-3 are used,
​
— service primitives for the exchange of information between ITS-S application processes and the ITS station facilities layer (FA-SAP), and
​
— a set of communication requirements and objectives (profiles) using the methods defined in ISO/TS 17423 to select the level of performance (best effort or real-time, etc.), confidence and security (authentication, encryption, etc.) for information exchange between ITS stations, such as data provision, event notification, roadside configuration, map update.

8.3.1.21 ISO 17465-3:2015, Intelligent transport systems — Cooperative ITS — Part 3: Release procedures for standards documents
The scope of this Technical Report is to provide a description of the release procedures for standards that is to be used within ISO TC 204. In the main, these will be International Standards produced by ISO TC204; however, it is likely that some standards produced by other Standards Development Organizations will have to be included in some releases. Initially, this release procedure will be applied to the deployment of standards for cooperative-ITS, however, in principle at least, it should be possible to apply it to standards for other ITS domains. It also has to be possible for this release procedure to be used by other Standards Development Organizations that do not already have their own procedures and with suitable changes to the identities of the people and groups involved, by any other organization that needs to produce a consistent set of documents.

ISO/TS 19091:2019 defines the message, data structures, and data elements to support exchanges between the roadside equipment and vehicles to address applications to improve safety, mobility and environmental efficiency. In order to verify that the defined messages will satisfy these applications, a systems engineering process has been employed that traces use cases to requirements and requirements to messages and data concepts.
This document consists of a single document that contains the base specification and a series of annexes. The base specification lists the derived information requirements (labelled informative) and references to other standards for message definitions where available. Annex A contains descriptions of the use cases addressed by this document. Annex B and Annex C contain traceability matrices that relate use cases to requirements and requirements to the message definitions (i.e. data frames and data elements). The next annexes list the base message requirements and application-oriented specific requirements (requirements traceability matrix) that map to the message and data concepts to be implemented. As such, an implementation consists of the base plus an additional group of extensions within this document.
Details on information requirements, for other than SPaT, MAP, SSM, and SRM messages are provided in other International Standards. The focus of this document is to specify the details of the SPaT, MAP, SSM, and SRM supporting the use cases defined in this document. Adoption of these messages varies by region and their adoption may occur over a significant time period.
ISO/TS 19091:2017 covers the interface between roadside equipment and vehicles. Applications, their internal algorithms, and the logical distribution of application functionality over any specific system architecture are outside the scope of this document.

This document describes the networking protocol functionality related to 6LoWPAN networking between two or more ITS stations communicating over the global Internet communication network.
​
It is assumed that the reader is familiar with IETF specifications found in "Request for Comments" (RFCs) 4944, 6282 and 2460 for 6LoWPAN and IPv6 protocols respective blocks used within this document. This document does not define a new protocol, neither does it define new abstraction for exchange of messages at the 6LoWPAN layer nor does it define new data structures. It, however, illustrates how the IETF protocols are combined to allow seamless communication among both heterogeneous and homogeneous ITS stations using 6LoWPAN. The 6LoWPAN family of protocols defined in this document as the Internet of Things Management Service Entity (IoT MSE) is integrated within the ITS station reference architecture as a new protocol block of the ITS station Networking and Transport layer. The procedures defined to share information between the IoT MSE block of the ITS station networking and transport protocols and other components of the ITS station architecture will be defined in the ISO 24102 series. ISO 24102 series includes the specifications for ITS station management, which are standardized to be compliant with the ITS station reference architecture and related standards.
​
In addition to the requirements described within this document, a number of notes and examples are provided to illustrate the IoT MSE block and its configuration.

This document is part of a family of deliverables from Standard Development Organizations (SDOs) for Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS), which is a subset of standards for Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS).
​
ITS aims to improve surface transportation in terms of:
-
safety
e.g. crash avoidance, obstacle detection, emergency calls, dangerous goods;
-
efficiency
e.g. navigation, green wave, priority, lane access control, contextual speed limits, car sharing;
-
comfort
e.g. telematics, parking, electric vehicle charging, infotainment; and
-
sustainability,
by applying information and communication technologies (ICT).
The whole set of standards for deployment of C-ITS is difficult to understand for developers of equipment and software, especially ITS application software, and thus guidelines explaining a beneficial choice of standards (C-ITS release), the purpose and interaction of standardized features, beneficial implementation approaches, and guidance in developing ITS applications are a prerequisite for a fair and open market allowing early deployment of interoperable and future-proof solutions; see ISO/TR 21186-1.
Referencing other SDOs and their respective deliverables is in no way to be understood as an endorsement, but rather as an informative piece of information.
At the time of writing this document, no applicable Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) issues were known related to this document. However, this document references standards for which IPRs are known. Information on such IPRs is expected to be provided in those respective standards, which might be from any one of the SDOs working on ITS or C-ITS.
​
This document specifies a global transport data management (GTDM) framework composed of
-
global transport basic data model,

This document specifies a methodology to define ITS-S communication profiles (ITS-SCPs) based on standardized communication protocols to interconnect trusted devices. These profiles enable secure information exchange between such trusted devices, including secure low-latency information exchange, in different configurations. The present document also normatively specifies some ITS-SCPs based on the methodology, yet without the intent of covering all possible cases, in order to exemplify the methodology.
​
Configurations of trusted devices for which this document defines ITS-SCPs include:
​
a) ITS station communication units (ITS-SCU) of the same ITS station unit (ITS-SU), i.e. station-internal communications;
b) an ITS-SU and an external entity such as a sensor and control network (SCN), or a service in the Internet;
c) ITS-SUs.
Other ITS-SCPs can be specified at a later stage.
The specifications given in this document can also be applied to unsecured communications and can be applied to groupcast communications as well.

This document is part of a family of deliverables from Standard Development Organizations (SDOs) for Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS), which is a subset of standards for Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS).
ITS aims to improve surface transportation in terms of:
-
safety
e.g. crash avoidance, obstacle detection, emergency calls, dangerous goods;
-
efficiency
e.g. navigation, green wave, priority, lane access control, contextual speed limits, car sharing;
-
comfort
e.g. telematics, parking, electric vehicle charging, infotainment;
-
sustainability
by applying information and communication technologies (ICT).
In the European Union, the legal framework is given by the European Commissions Mandate M/453 on C-ITS, the European Commission Directive 2010/40, and the European Commission Mandate M/546.
The whole set of standards for deployment of C-ITS is difficult to understand by developers of equipment and software, especially ITS application software, and thus guidelines explaining a beneficial choice of standards (C-ITS Release), the purpose and interaction of standardized features, beneficial implementation approaches and guidance in developing ITS applications are a prerequisite for a fair and open market allowing early deployment of interoperable and future-proof solutions.
The ISO 21186 series provides necessary guidelines in multiple parts, each dedicated to a specific purpose:
-
Part 1: Standardization landscape and releases;
-
Part 2: Hybrid communications (this document);
-
Part 3: Security.
This document can be complemented by further parts as required, for example:
-
Usage of the service announcement protocol specified, for example, in ISO 22418;
-
Dynamically extendable data and protocol parameters ("Information Object Classes" and "Information Object Sets"; based on ASN.1 type CLASS);
-
Usage of the GTDM framework specified in ISO/TS 211841.
The purpose of this document is thus to inform about relevant standards and to describe the functionalities of the ITS station architecture defined in support for hybrid communication technologies. It is intended to serve as a guideline to structure the development of new C-ITS standards and to harmonize the deployment of C-ITS services relying on the use of hybrid communication technologies. It also intends to give support to the developers of standards defining C-ITS services and to the developers of C-ITS solutions and ITS applications complying with the ITS station architecture and its set of functionalities supporting hybrid communications.
At time of writing this document, no applicable Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) issues were known related to this document. However, this document references standards, for which IPRs are known. Information on such IPRs is expected to be provided in those respective standards, which might be from any one of the Standards Development Organisations working on ITS or C-ITS.
​
Referencing other SDOs and their respective deliverables in no way is to be understood as an endorsement, but rather as an informative piece of information.
​
More details on the C-ITS domain can be found in the Brochure cited in Reference.
This document serves as a guideline explaining the concept of hybrid communications and support functionalities for Cooperative ITS services deployed in conformance with the ITS station architecture and related Cooperative ITS standards.
https://www.iso.org/standard/79948.html
This document provides informative material of interest to implementers deploying secure systems to carry out ITS applications. ITS stations are rapidly maturing with regards to specification, use and security conformance standards. In support of the ITS station ecosystem new standards have been developed, such as ISO/TS 21177, which provide a framework for device-to-device secure sessions and resource access authorization. Common criteria protection profiles have been developed and adopted for use in distinctive European ITS service domains, such as automotive V2X safety services, as well as a narrow set of infrastructure messaging based services.
NOTE: ITS services are provided by means of ITS applications.
Given the diversity of anticipated ITS services and potential data sensitivities, this document was constructed to provide ITS stakeholders with a holistic analysis and indication of possible extensions to the ITS station security ecosystem.
This document includes the following sections:
​
1) An overview of security considerations for application specification and deployment in ITS. This overview also provides a detailed rationale for the following sections.
​
2) A use-case driven threat model based roughly on common criteria processes in establishment of threats, security objectives and SFR relative to three genericized ITS station data sensitivity and access control scenarios. Each scenario can be used by security practitioners as a starting point to baseline ITS station platform protection profiles of varying application types and data sensitivities. The genericized protection profile security requirements are then compared to several existing (or under development) protection profiles established for automotive use cases to determine possible gaps in security controls that should be addressed when tailoring subsequent security targets or related protection profiles.
​
3) An implementation example of the development of an access control policy implementation for an ISO/TS 21177 conformant ITS station unit. The example access control policy is application-specific and depends on many factors, including the type of ITS station unit on which the access control policy is used. Consequently, this access control policy implementation example is not suitable for being copy-pasted to the context of other ITS applications. Rather, the process described in this example can be considered as a suitable template for a process aimed at creating an access control policy for any ITS application running in an ISO/TS 21177 conformant unit.
​
4) Inputs for the development of a CP governing the issuance of certificates for ITS station units. A CP is necessary for the deployment of a system to ensure consistent behaviour of different CAs (or, more generally, credential issuance actors) within the system. This consistent behaviour enables receiving devices to trust all received messages to the appropriate level, knowing that those devices have been through the same certificate-issuing process no matter where the certificates were obtained. In early 2019, the European Commission published a CP for use for "Day 1" ITS applications, to be enforced by a top-level root of trust implemented in an entity called the TLM. This document concludes with a set of high-level gaps and potential mitigations for ITS PKI participants and implementers.
​
5) A description of additional functionality that extends the functionality of ISO/TS 21177. This material is written in a manner which will enable it to be inserted into a future revision of ISO/TS 21177.
​
These five areas of content significantly ease the process of deploying new ITS applications securely.
​
This document is forms part of the ISO 21186 series on "Guidelines on the usage of standards," which is comprised of the following Parts:
​
1) Standardization landscape and releases;
2) Hybrid communications;
3) Security (this document).
This document provides guidelines on security applicable in Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) related to communications and data access.
​
In particular, this document provides analyses and best practice content for secure ITS connectivity using ISO/TS 21177.
This document analyses and identifies issues related to application security, access control, device security and PKI for a secure ITS ecosystem.

This International Standard specifies networking protocol functionalities related to IPv6 networking between two or more ITS stations communicating over the global Internet communication network.
​
The International Standard assumes that the reader is familiar with IETF specifications found in "Request for Comments" (RFCs) of individual IPv6 protocol blocks used within this International Standard. This International Standard does not define a new protocol, a new exchange of messages at the IPv6 layer, or new data structures. It defines how standard IETF protocols are combined so that ITS stations can communicate with one another using the IPv6 family of protocols.
Procedures defined to share information between the IPv6 layer and other components of the ITS station architecture are defined in ISO 24102. In addition to the requirements specified within this International Standard, a number of notes and examples are provided to illustrate IPv6 addressing configuration and IPv6 mobility management.

8.3.1.48 ISO 22837:2009, Vehicle Probe Data for Wide Area Communication
This International Standard specifies the following.
​
• Reference architecture for probe vehicle systems and probe data. This reference architecture provides a general structure for probe vehicle systems within which a wide range of actual probe vehicle systems can be built whose physical characteristics may differ (e.g., in their choice of communications medium). The reference architecture is used to:
— clarify the major building blocks and logical interconnections of probe vehicle systems for which this standard will be used;
— categorize probe data in accordance with the information model described below.
​
• Basic data framework for probe data elements and probe data. This framework specifies how to define probe data elements and probe messages. Specifically it provides the following.
— Rules for mapping information models (as defined in ISO 14817) of probe data to probe data elements/messages. The information models show the logical structure of entities and concepts involved in probe data.
— Required characteristics of probe data elements and probe data messages.
— The notation for probe data elements/messages (in XML).
— Rules for using core data elements and basic data elements (see below), and extensions of data elements in each application domain.
​
• Core data element definitions. Core data elements are basic descriptive elements intended to appear in every probe message. These are the location and the time at which the probe data was sensed.
​
• Initial set of probe data elements. These elements will be commonly used in typical probe data enabled application domains, such as traffic, weather, and safety. Standardizing these probe data elements facilitates the development of probe vehicle systems and the distribution of probe data. This is not intended to be an exhaustive listing of probe data elements.
​
• Example probe messages. These messages define how probe data elements are combined to convey information to probe processing centres. This is not intended to be an exhaustive listing of probe messages.
To completely define probe processing, the standardization of probe data elements and probe messages is not sufficient. Standards are also required for processed probe data (the output of probe processing) and downlink elements and messages (to convey these results to vehicles and other users). This International Standard prescribes an initial set of probe data elements that are important for transmission from vehicles to land-side processing centres. The standardization of other probe data issues will be addressed in future work.

8.3.1.64 ISO 29282:2011, Intelligent transport systems — Communications access for land mobiles (CALM) — Satellite networks
This International Standard provides definitions and procedures for the establishment, maintenance and termination of an ITS (intelligent transport systems) communications session within a CALM (communication access for land mobiles) system environment using bi-directional satellite communications.
​
It defines the operation of the medium management adaptation entity (MMAE), which provides the management interface between a proprietary satellite communications medium and the “ITS station management”. This enables the “ITS station management” to know the status of the communications medium and control the interface without the need for applications at the ITS station to have any knowledge of the satellite communications interface. The procedures that the “ITS station management” expects to use are also explained.
​
NOTE 1 CALM links are required for quasi-continuous, prolonged and short-duration communications between vehicles and the roadside, between vehicles, and between mobile equipment and fixed infrastructure points, over medium and long ranges.
This International Standard defines how to connect and disconnect a communication session using satellite communication systems in the context of an application operated within the environment defined in ISO 21217. It supports peer-to-peer modes of communication. Support for broadcast satellite systems is defined in ISO 13183, which provides a common approach for all broadcast media. It supports satellite communications networks that are interconnected with the public network, as well as those which connect via the internet and those which provide a stand-alone capability.
​
NOTE 2 As there are multiple instantiations of satellite systems, most of which are not interoperable, there is the possibility of several simultaneous satellite sessions, each forming a separate CALM medium (although the differences may only be in software within the on-board equipment).
Wherever practicable, this International Standard has been developed by reference to suitable existing standards, adopted by selection. Application-specific upper layers are not included, but will be driven by application standards (which may not be technology-specific).

The DSRC Standards EN 12253, EN 12795 and EN 12834, which together form a three-layered architecture for DSRC, are designed to encompass a wide range of services for different purposes in order to make the basic DSRC architecture suited for many different applications and for a wide range of possible products and systems.
This document: - specifies a physical layer at 5,8 GHz for DSRC as applicable in the field of Road Transport and Traffic Telematics (RTTT). - provides requirements for the communication medium to be used for exchange of information between road-side units (RSU) and on-board units (OBU). - caters for a communication means to be used by several applications in the RTTT sector.
8.3.2.6 EN 12795:2005, Road transport and traffic telematics — Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) — DSRC data link layer: medium access and logical link control
This European Standard:
- defines the Data Link Layer of DSRC; - is positioned with respect to other related standards by the layers defined in OSI Basic Reference Model [EN ISO/IEC 7498-1] as adopted for DSRC;
- supports broadcast and half-duplex transmission modes;
- supports a variety of fixed equipment configurations. It supports configurations where one fixed equipment communicates with one mobile equipment unit, as well as configurations where one fixed equipment can communicate with several mobile equipment units;
- takes into account that the mobile equipment communicates with the fixed equipment while passing through a limited communication zone;
- defines neither any specific configuration nor the layout of the communication zone;
- does not define to what extent different instances of fixed equipment, operating in the vicinity of each other, need to be synchronised with each other;
- defines parameters to be used in negotiation procedures taking place between fixed equipment and mobile equipment.
By defining two distinct sublayers, namely the medium access control sublayer and the logical link control sublayer, this standard defines:
a) medium access control procedures for the shared physical medium;
b) addressing rules and conventions;
c) data flow control procedures;
d) acknowledgement procedures;
e) error control procedures;
f) services provided to application layer.
The MAC sublayer is specific to the DSRC. The LLC services offered are unacknowledged and acknowledged connectionless services based on [ISO/IEC 8802-2]
8.3.2.7 ​EN 12834:2005, Road transport and traffic telematics - Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) - DSRC application layer
This European Standard specifies the Application Layer Core which provides communication tools for applications based on DSRC. These tools consist of Kernels that can be used by application processes via service primitives. The application processes, including application data and application specific functions, are outside the scope of this European Standard.
The standard is named 'Application Layer' although - it does not cover all functionality of OSI Layer 7 and - it includes functionality from lower layers. This European Standard uses services provided by DSRC Data Link Layer, [EN 12795], and covers functionality of intermediate layers of the OSI Basic Reference Model [EN ISO/IEC 7498-1].
The following subjects are covered by this European Standard:
- application Layer structure and framework;
- services to enable data transfer and remote operations;
- application multiplexing procedure;
- fragmentation procedure;
- concatenation and chaining procedures;
- common encoding rules to translate data from abstract syntax ASN.1, [ISO/IEC 8824-1], into transfer syntax, [ISO/IEC 8825-2], and vice versa;
- communication initialisation and release procedures;
- broadcast service support;
- DSRC management support including communication profile handling.
It is outside the scope of this European Standard to define a security policy.
Some transport mechanisms for security related data are provided.
NOTE During the lifetime of ENV 12834:1997, no implementation of the Broadcast Pool functionality has become known. Broadcast Pool functionality is therefore considered untested and is kept in this European Standard for compatibility with the ENV only.

The document specifies the Basic Transport Protocol (BTP) for the transport of packets among ITS stations. It resides on top of the GeoNetworking protocol specified in ETSI EN 302 636-4-1 and ETSI TS 102 636-4-2 and below the ITS-S facilities layer. It provides an end-to-end, connection-less and unreliable transport service.
​
8.3.3.6 EN 302 636-6-1 V1.2.1, 2014-05, Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS); Vehicular Communications; GeoNetworking; Part 6: Internet Integration; Sub-part 1: Transmission of IPv6 Packets over GeoNetworking Protocols
The document specifies the transmission of IPv6 packets over the ETSI GeoNetworking protocol via a protocol adaptation sub-layer referred to as the GN6ASL (GeoNetworking to IPv6 Adaptation Sub-Layer). The scope of the present document is limited to the GN6ASL.
The techniques specified in the present document fulfil the requirements for GeoNetworking and IPv6 integration described in [b8.3]. In particular, these techniques allow for the transport of IPv6 packets by ETSI GeoNetworking protocol, enabling sub-IP multi-hop delivery of IPv6 packets, e.g. in a vehicular network. As a result, the connectivity provided by points-of-attachment to IPv6 infrastructure networks is extended by means of mobile relay nodes.
In addition to that, the techniques described in the present document allow for geocasting of IPv6 multicast packets. The scope of the GN6ASL is limited to the fulfilment of the requirements for GeoNetworking and IPv6 integration described in its clause 5.9, by enabling an ITS station including a GeoAdhoc router running the GeoNetworking protocol and an IPv6-compliant protocol layer to:
• exchange IPv6 packets with other ITS stations;
• acquire globally routable IPv6 unicast addresses and communicate with an arbitrary IPv6 host located in the Internet, whenever an ITS station including a GeoAdhoc router and including or connected to an access router providing IPv6 connectivity to the Internet is reachable directly or via other relay ITS stations;
• perform the operations required by for a Mobile Router whenever:
a) an ITS mobile router supporting Network Mobility Basic Support (NEMO BS) is present in the ITS station and runs on top of the GN6ASL; and
b) an ITS station including a GeoAdhoc router and including or connected to an access router providing IPv6 connectivity to the Internet is reachable directly or via other relay ITS stations.
NOTE: The document adopts the definition of "IPv6-compliant" and "sub-IP multi-hop delivery" introduced in clause 3.1. Extending the IPv6 basic standards to support new features is outside the scope of the present document. Extensions to NEMO BS [14] are outside the scope of the present document.
Mechanisms for the dissemination of IPv6 routing information for hosts and routers not directly attaching to the network where GeoNetworking is used are outside the scope of the present document (e.g. discovery of IPv6 in-vehicle prefixes). However, the present document aims at providing the underlying support for the dissemination of such routing information, i.e. IPv6 multicast support for the network where the GeoNetworking protocol is used. With respect to IPv6 multicast and anycast support, the document is limited to the support required to enable distribution of IPv6 multicast and anycast traffic on a shared link.
Amendments to specific IPv6 multicast forwarding mechanisms are out of the scope of the document. However, the document aims at not preventing existing IPv6 multicast forwarding mechanisms from being used in conjunction with the GN6ASL. In order to facilitate the deployment of ITS systems, the document aims at maintaining backward compatibility with pre-existent IPv6-compliant protocol implementations and NEMO BS implementations compliant with. A usage example of NEMO BS with the GN6ASL is presented in the informative annex F.
The document requires the assignment by IANA of an anycast identifier for ETSI GeoAnycast Reserved IPv6 Subnet Anycast Address (see clause 9.4).
The mechanisms specified in the document are distinct from but compatible with the IPv6-related functionalities, which specifies how IPv6 networking is generally operated in ITS stations.
The techniques described in the document provide a way to transport IPv6 packets that is fully compatible with the IPv6 specifications and pre-existing implementations, and hence is compatible with ISO 21210-2010: "Intelligent Transport Systems - Communications access for land mobiles (CALM) - IPv6 networking"

Broadcasting is defined as a communication configuration attribute which denotes a point-to-multipoint mode of transmission, i.e. unidirectional distribution to all ITS Stations connected to the network and tuned for receiving. Further interactions with the infrastructure and Central ITS Stations, like reservation or payment of a Charging Spot, are out of the scope of the document, but will be another part of the global ITS system specifications
​
The document provides a specification of the communication system required to support the requirements of Tyre Information System (TIS) application, TPG (Tyre Pressure Gauge) application and TPG operator application. The TIS application has the objective to monitor in real time the pressure of the vehicle tyres, to advise the driver and to support him for the tyre(s) refilling if one or several tyre(s) are not at the recommended pressure. TPG application and TPG operator application have the objective to notify the TPG to road users and provide tyre pressure refilling service to vehicles, either manually, or automatically. Consequently, the communication system specification considers the various phases of the driver support process starting with the provisioning of available Tyre Pressure Gauge (TPG) locations, pairing the vehicle with a selected TPG and ensuring the data elements exchange required for the selected TPG to refill the concerned tyre(s) until reaching recommended pressure(s). The present document is developed in accordance with requirements defined in CEN EN 16661.
