GSC Global Standards Collaboration GSC#10 28 August – 2 September 2005 Sophia Antipolis, France 1 Prime PSO Presentation Presented by T. Russell Shields Ygomi LLC Agenda Item: gsc10_grsc3_5.4, Intelligent Transportation Systems

GSC 2 2 Items for Discussion  Mobile Wireless Broadband for Public Sector Applications including Public Protection and Disaster Relief (PPDR)  Status of CALM  CALM M5 (DSRC/WAVE at 5.9 GHz)  Mobile Wireless Broadband  Vehicle Safety Communications  Review of GSC-9 Resolutions

GSC 3 Mobile Wireless Broadband (MWB) for Public Authority Needs  Much of the attention to ITS wireless communications has focused on serving private vehicles (automatic crash notification, wireless diagnostics, vehicles services like remote door unlock, etc.)  At least as important: Support of emergency vehicle fleets (police, fire, ambulance, etc.) for both routine operations and major disasters (PPDR)  Current situation: High level of incompatibility among emergency services and across jurisdictions

GSC 4 Operational Needs for Emergencies and Disasters (PPDR)  User requirements – Need to work together  Immediate area-wide high-bandwidth communications  Supplement or replace primary communication networks  Flexible, familiar user-interface  Standard terminal equipment and application software  System architecture and organization  Standard ISP system architecture plus mobility  Flexible, multi-tiered command and control

GSC 5 MWB with VOIP: Important Part of Public Sector Solution  Can provide a consistent, robust capability that  Works for all routine operations  Provides priority for emergency operations  Offers high-speed access to data including private Internet sites  Graphical, text, or speech output  Commercial vehicle cargo (esp. dangerous goods)  Building floor plans for fire fighters  Medical data for ambulances  Vehicle (and other) records for police  Maps and facility records for major emergencies and evacuations  Technology is just one aspect  Hard part is institutional arrangements across jurisdictions

GSC 6 Standards for MWB for Public Authorities  ETSI/TIA Project MESA has established the groundwork  There exist published standards that meet the needs of police, fire, ambulance, transportation disaster, etc.

GSC 7 CALM  Continuous Air interface for Long and Medium range  A family of umbrella protocols that enable vehicles to stay connected  Covers 2.5/3G, infrared, microwave (5.9 GHz), millimetre wave (~63 GHz), mobile wireless broadband  Allows vehicles to use the best combination of in-vehicle and infrastructure communications technology locally available  Particular emphasis on supporting vehicle safety applications  Two primary focuses in today’s presentation:  DSRC/WAVE at 5.9 GHz  Mobile Wireless Broadband

GSC 8 DSRC at 5.9 GHz  “WAVE”  Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) at 5.9 GHz now called WAVE (Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments) – 75 MHz of bandwidth allocated by U.S. FCC  Potentially a U.S. federally-funded vehicle-data network separate from cellular  Requires money and standards  In the U.S., money may finally be forthcoming from recent passage of long-delayed highway reauthorization bill “SAFETEA-LU”  Standards progress has been slow in IEEE p and IEEE 1609  Worldwide compatibility  The European vehicle manufacturers in the Car-2-Car Consortium are working through ETSI TG37 for a European solution compatible with the U.S.  Canada allocated spectrum in the same frequencies  More activities needed in Korea, Japan, and other countries that have or plan to have the capability to control vehicular traffic via wireless safety applications

GSC 9 Status of Vehicle Safety Communications Standards  High level of collaboration among SDOs, significantly arising from Project MESA  IEEE 1609 – Upper layers  Difficult to keep the focus on vehicle safety and public safety applications vs. commercial applications  IEEE p – Lower layers  Very slow progress  ISO/TC204/WG16 (ISO – CALM M5)  Creating umbrella standards, but depending on IEEE work for WAVE implementation specifics

GSC 10 MWB and CALM (1)  MWB is useful as well for commercial ITS, which includes large distances and high speed travel  Must remain consistent with public authority ITS including message prioritization in accordance with Project MESA objectives  MWB needs to operate within the CALM networking environment for vehicles  CALM networking needs to operate within MWB protocols for session establishment and maintenance

GSC 11 MWB and CALM (2)  ISO TC204 and ETSI TG37 are forming relationships with developers of standards and practices for MWB  IEEE and the WiMAX Forum  IEEE  ATIS for HC-SDMA  IETF NEMO (Network Mobility)  Intend to support (at least) the these MWB standards  IEEE e/WiMAXLet the market decide  IEEE which approaches will  ATIS HC-SDMAbe successful  Others?

GSC 12 Vehicle Safety Data Communications  ETSI TG37 and ISO/TC204 recognize the need for an environment like CALM that includes  Vehicle-vehicle and vehicle-infrastructure communications  Continuous/quasi-continuous communications over multiple technologies to effectively handle safety messages  Vehicle safety requires very high reliability  Because serious crashes are infrequent, error rate for vehicle safety data communications probably needs to be <10 -7  Safety data messages probably have to be sent via two or more technologies with substantially different characteristics, e.g., microwave (5.9 GHz) and millimetre wave (63 GHz)  Work items to support data registration for automatic crash notification (ACN) and access procedures using any available technologies have been added to the ISO/TC204 work programme  Work items to use MWB (three approaches) within CALM have been adopted into the CALM architecture and ISO/TC204 work programme; being developed jointly with ETSI TG37

GSC 13 The CALM Media Used For Safety Applications Need...  Handover protocols to enable continuous sessions  Adequate power and bandwidth to achieve  Uplink and downlink data rates of at least 200 kbps for vehicles travelling at 200 km/h toward and away from ground stations  Uplink and downlink data rates of at least 100 kbps to/from one another (combined speed of 400 km/h) for vehicle-to-vehicle communications Encourage ITU/CEPT/FCC to provide technology-agnostic bandwidth to support MWB, 5.9 GHz, and 63 GHz globally or with enough similarity to allow common technical solutions

GSC 14 Resolution Updates GSC-9/2 (Joint GTSC/GRSC): Emergency Communications  Major area of ITS activity  HC-SDMA standard approved by ATIS  New ISO work item: NP Specific Mobile Broadband Wireless Access Communications Systems  IEEE 1609 continues work on application layer standards for IEEE p  Significant topic at March 2005 ITU Workshop at Geneva Auto Show  Project MESA  Top standards need  International activity (possibly ITU) to push the needs of the mobile first responders for mobile wireless broadband

GSC 15 GSC-9/6 (GRSC): Supporting Automotive Crash Notification (“ACN”) by Public Wireless Communications Networks  ETSI TG37 has taken a leading role  New ISO work items  NP Automatic Crash Notification using any Available Media  NP Emergency Call using Cellular Networks  NP Emergency Call Architecture  Japan National Police Agency has initiated new activities  Help System for Emergency Life Saving and Public Safety (HELP) under its Universal Traffic Management System, now being updated  Top standards need  Updates to cellular standards to improve the probability of successfully delivering ACN messages in countryside areas while reducing the burden that ACN devices may put on cellular networks
