INTELLIGENT TRANSPORT SYSTEMS - Cooperative, Connected and Automated Mobility (ITS-CCAM) and Electromobility

(A.) Policy and legislation

(A.1) Policy objectives

Intelligent transport systems apply ICT to the mobility sector. ITS services and applicationshelp to significantly improve road safety, traffic efficiency and comfort, by helping transport users to take the right decisions and adapt to the traffic situation. They also help to increase the number of multimodality options and improve travel and traffic management. contributing to the EU’s single market, competitiveness and the Green Deal objectives.

(A.2) EC perspective and progress report

To take full advantage of the benefits that ICT-based systems and applications can bring to themobility sector it is necessary to ensure interoperability and continuity of the services among the different systems throughout Europe. The existence of common European standards and technical specifications is paramount to ensure the interoperability of ITS services and applications and to accelerate their introduction and impact. International cooperation aiming at global harmonisation should be pursued.

(B.) Requested actions

(B.1) General actions

Action 1.1 Work to organise and lay down governance principles to enable the development of a coherent set of domain ontologies (to enable re-use and extension, instead of replication, or even worse: different models) for datasets within scope of the delegated regulation and directly adjoining ones based on the linked data principles.

Action 1.2 Building on the work of the DATEX II PSA and foreseen work of NAPCORE, undertake actions to revise DATEX II standards to support a wider range and approaches to publishing data.

B.2 Cooperative, Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM)

ITSto support the development of cooperative, connected and automated mobility. ITS services in general, and C-ITS (cooperative ITS) services in particular, along with the introduction of driving automation functionalities in vehicles are generally seen as converging paths: vehicles being connected to the mobility ecosystem in their immediate vicinity (other vehicles, infrastructure) and to the wider mobility ecosystem (central traffic management systems, other modes of transport, etc.), and to the internet.

As stated in the GEAR 2030 report1, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) connectivity should act as an additional enabler for the operation of highly and fully automated vehicles that will hit EU roads by 2030. Connectivity and cooperation can add collective intelligence and action to automation, thus improving the overall efficiency of transport flows, including in an intermodal perspective. For some functionalities and operations, it will even be essential.

Action 2.1 To complete the minimum set of standards required for the interoperable deployment of CCAM services based on V2X communication, connecting all road users and infrastructure, including vulnerable road users (VRU), and ensuring the overarching principles set out in the ITS Directive,in particular by: - achieving the Release2of ETSI TC ITS and CEN/CENELEC C-ITS standards; -updating theRelease1 of theETSI TC ITS and CEN/CENELECC-ITS standards taking into account the feedback from pilots and earlydeployments.

Action 2.2 Plugtest activities for conformity and interoperability testing, including guidelines with methods for assessing the conformity of the identified minimum set of standards.

Action 3 SDOs are invited to develop and perform an in-depth scrutiny of CCAM services from the standardisation standpoint, taking into account existingarchitectures, current standards and technical specifications. The analysis should identify missing complementary standards and identify possibly conflicting standards with the overarching objective of delivering fullapplication andservice interoperability. The analysis should be based on currently implemented technologies (notably those recognised by 17 Member States and other countries within the C-Roads platform, and subject to automotive deployment in line with COM (2016) 766) while also considering newly emerging technologies (in line with the 5G Action Plan) and build upon the principles and results of the RSCOM Mandate to CEPT (RSCOM17-26 rev.3) with the aimat achievinginteroperability betweenvariousservices.

Action 4 To support the implementation of a pan-European usable trust policy and processes to support multi-stakeholder business cases, SDOs should address the following misbehaviour detection and revocation of trust for ITS-Ss stations including requirements definition, standardisation of the data transmitted to the misbehaviour detection decision nodes andformat of the certificate revocation list (CRL).

In particular SDO should address the following areas: 1) misbehaviour detection and revocation of trust for C-ITS stations including requirements definition, standardisation of the data transmitted to the misbehaviour detection decision nodes, format of the certificate revocation list (CRL) or other revocation protocols that might satisfy the objectives of scalability, security and interoperability. Some research projects have developed revocation techniques which will allow to revoke the enrollment certificates or there might be other response or recovery solutions e.g. to enable a “self-revocation” by the misbehaving ITS-S to cancel or block the preloaded AT keys stored in its secure HW or via a configuration management protocol (SW updates in compliance with UN R156 regulation).. 2) Standards for protocols and profiles for enrolment credential requests or authorisation ticket requests are also a priority starting from the recently updated definitions of these protocols in the ETSI TS 102 941; EN.ISO TS 21177; EN.ISO TS 21184; EN.ISO TS 21185; EN.ISO TR 21186.

Action 5 To continue international cooperation in the field of ITS-CCAM standardisation, in particular with the USA and Japan, but also with other regions, including participation of the relevant SDOs.

OPEN IN-VEHICLE PLATFORM ARCHITECTURE AND HMI

The development, operation and user acceptance of vehicle-based intelligent transport systems and services will benefit from an agreed open in-vehicle platform architecture enabling a ‘single platform —multiple services’ approach and ensuring interoperability/interconnection with legacy in-vehicle communication networks (e.g. CAN-bus) and (generic) infrastructure systems and facilities.

The issue so far has been addressed in a fragmented way, providing building blocks (e.g. the research projects CVIS, GST, OVERSEE, the eSafety working group on SOA and the recommendations of the EeIP Task Force OPEN, and the ITS study) but an overall logical and cost-effective synthesis seems to be lacking. C-ITS standards should also be taken into account. A study launched under the ITS Action plan (action 4.1) focused on synergies among legal provisions and obligations for heavy goods vehicles (HGV).

Currently, significant efforts are to be made on the messages and information within different platforms and how it will be displayed in the vehicle.

Working group 6 (“Access to in-vehicle data and resources”) of the C-ITS Platform identified 3 possible technical solutions (on-board application platform, in-vehicle interface, data server platform) for accessing and sharing in-vehicle data. The following related standardisation needs have been identified:

Action 6 SDOs to continue developing standards for an advanced physical/electrical/logical interface (e.g. evolution of OBD2), including the necessary minimum level of security (i.e. integrity, authentication and availability) and the minimum data sets and standardised data protocols which enable ITS services, taking also into account, if appropriate, the existing ISO standard for access to in-vehicle data under the concept of Extended Vehicle (ISO 20077-1:2016). This would include aspects on information via HMI or any other device regarding traffic related safety information.

ELECTRIC VEHICLES (EVS)

Following the development of the electric vehicle market, new elements must be included in the deployment of the e-mobility infrastructure to facilitate the market uptake of EVs. The infrastructure must be fully integrated into the electricity system, allowing for smart charging and bidirectional V2G services within a smart electricity system. New actors such as e-mobility service providers (EMSPs) and e-roaming platforms are developing a relevant market. Such service providers need fair market access, which in turn requires interoperability also in terms of charging infrastructure, e.g. when it comes to payments.

Action 7 ESOs to consider the development of the needed standards in support of the proposal for Alternative Fuels Infrastructure (AFI) Regulation.

To support the development of standards for alternative fuels, DG MOVE is in the process of launching a standardisation request which includes the development of European standards considering the following communication domains:

  • In the EV Charging ecosystem:
  • EV-CP
  • CP-CPO
  • back-end (management system)
  • CPO-e-Roaming platform-EMS
  • Grid interface (link with the energy system, i.e., distribution and transmission system operators)
  • European standard containing technical specifications with a unified solution on a supply connector for recharging heavy duty vehicles (DC charging)
  • European standard containing technical specifications with a unified solution for wireless recharging for passenger cars and light duty vehicles
  • European standard containing technical specifications with a unified solution for wireless recharging for electric buses
  • European standard containing technical specifications with a unified solution on inductive static wireless recharging for heavy duty vehicles
  • European standard containing technical specifications on electric road systems (ERS) with a unified solution for inductive dynamic wireless recharging for passenger cars, light and heavy duty vehicles
  • European standard containing technical specifications on electric road systems (ERS) with a unified solution for dynamic overhead power supply via a pantograph, for heavy duty vehicles
  • European standard containing technical specifications on electric road systems (ERS) with a unified solution for dynamic ground level power supply through conductive rails for passenger cars, light duty vehicles and heavy duty vehicles
  • European standard containing technical specifications with a unified solution for battery swapping for heavy duty vehicles
  • European standard containing technical specifications with a unified solution for battery swapping for L category vehicles

These standards shall comply with the following requirements:

All standards must support an open market development. They must create a level playing field between all market actors and allow for fair competition between them, without inhibiting any risk of favouring one or more market actors.The future standards should converge current open protocols in the market (such as OCPP - Open Charge Point Protocol or OCPI - Open Charge Protocol Interface), aiming to achieve a simplification of the communication domain.

All standards must take into account and, insofar as possible and useful, build upon, standards developed at international level (e.g. ISO/IEC), taking account of market support (use and acceptance by market parties) and maturity (can be implemented quickly while requiring only limited changes to existing systems)

All communication standards must include a specific part related to cybersecurity, ensuring the adequately level of security for e-mobility IT infrastructure.

Action 8 SDOs to consider the development of standards on data collection of recharging/refuelling points for alternative fuels, taking into account the results of the PSA IDACS.

The Programme Support Action (PSA) for Alternative Fuels Infrastructure (AFI) in the framework of the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) so-called IDACS (Data collection related to recharging/refuelling points for alternative fuels and the unique identification codes related to e-Mobility actors) has two main objectives:

  • Develop an approach to set up e-mobility Identification codes (thereafter the e-mobility ID codes) for Charging Point Operators and EMSPs and collect the codes already in use. During the programme it will be agreedan approach to implement “a common ID registration repository” for exchanging information on these e-mobility ID codes across the Member States and for cross-referencing the assignment of new unique ID codes.
  • Ensure that data (static and dynamic) of infrastructure for electricity and hydrogen are made available through the National Access Points, which are defined in the Directive 2010/40/EU on Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS Directive) and the Commission Delegated Regulations in the format specified therein.Optionally, gather missing data for compressed natural gas (CNG), liquefied natural gas (LNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and high blended bio fuels and ensure that all data are made available through the National Access Points, which are defined in the Directive 2010/40/EU on Intelligent Transport Systems and the Commission Delegated Regulations in the format specified therein.

This PSA is being implemented by 15 Member States and has already agreed a format to set up e-mobility ID codes for CPOs and EMSPs. In this regard, the SDOs should work in the adoption of the format agreed in a standard. Discussion has been established on this aspect in the WP related to ISO 15118. The correct alingment must be ensured.

It is important to remark that the associated standardisation activity is fundamental in order to give certainty and support a structured market development of an EU-wide approach for the assignments of ID codes to e-mobility actors of alternative fuels and better information about the location/availability of the infrastructure. This will also contribute to digital maps and location features.

Finally, in terms of access to battery data, ESOs are requested to carry out standardisation work on the determination of State of Health (SoH) and State of Charge (SoC) for batteries for EVs. The determination of this parameters should cover both calculation associated to the period of functioning of the vehicle as well as end of life of batteries.

DIGITAL MAPS & LOCATION FEATURES:

It may be relevant to many services and applications to make use of a high precision location reference beyond current global navigation satellite systems aiming at enabling more effective and advanced services.To achieve this, all functional and technical methods need to be used (e.g. crowd sourcing, high precision objects and radio communications).

Action 9 SDOs to standardise data and communication aspects to ensure interoperable implementation and data sharing system for increased location accuracy.

Digital maps:

Action 10 SDOs to develop standards / specifications to steer and manage the exchange of accurate (public) road data in navigation-oriented maps, and of the timely integration of such updates in ITS digital maps for navigation and more advanced in-vehicle applications, including ITS applications for CCAM services and automated driving support, and for non-vehicle ITS applications. As far as possible, it will be significant to address the largest alignment with the technical framework for infrastructure for spatial information in the European community (INSPIRE).

Digital local dynamic maps:

Action 11 SDOs to extend the local dynamic map standards to integrate mechanismssupporting the use of high precision positioning and related objects, in particular for some relevant safety related applications.This may require additional specific object definition standardisation.

(URBAN) ITS - MULTIMODAL SERVICES

Standardisation request on urban ITS M/546 (Commission Implementing Decision of 12/2/2016)

A pre-study on Urban ITS was carried out by CEN/TC 2782 to identify further standardisation needs. It identified several actions, which were used as input to the EC Standardisation request M546:

Action 12 As possible further activities in relation to standardisation work on Urban ITS, the Commission will also discuss the following aspects with the ESOs and stakeholders:

The requested European standards and European standard deliverables should reuse, harmonise or interface as far as possible with existing standards, specifications (incl. priority actions A and B within the ITS Directive) and projects (CIVITAS, POSSE and smart cities projects etc.). In the domain of public transport, and particularly with respect to multimodal information and smart ticketing, the need for consistency will affect a broad set of standards and technical specifications, namely:

  • Transmodel the European Public Transport Reference Data Model (EN 12896);
  • SIRI (System Interface for Real-time Information EN 15531 1-4 & CEN TS 15531-5), largely based on Transmodel: defines standard exchanges of real- time public transport information and being extended to include new mobility services (sharing, pooling, rental and taxis);
  • NeTEx (Network and Timetable Exchange, CEN TS 16614 1-3), based on Transmodel parts 1,2,3 and 5: defines a physical data model and standard exchanges of planned public transport information and being extended to include new mobility services (sharing, pooling, rental and taxis);
  • Standards supporting the emerging interoperable fare management (IFM) systems: Public Transport interoperability (IOPTA) standard ISO EN 15320, currently under revision, defining the functional system architecture and the application scenarios; the EN 1545 standard describing the data elements and the ISO EN 24014-1 standard, currently under revision, defining functional system architecture and the application scenarios.
  • OpRa (Operating Raw data and statistics exchange): supports the identification of Public Transport raw data to be exchanged, gathered and stored in order to support the study and control phase of Public Transport Service and to enable Quality of Service evaluation. The work is compliant with Transmodel.

Necessary actions, in particular to fully satisfy the requirements of the Delegated Regulation EU 2017/1926 (priority action A): Public Transport:

Action 12 a continue defining data exchange formats and publication services related to OpRa in compliance with Transmodel and NeTEx.

Action 12 b continue developing NeTEx and SIRI European minimum profiles in order to support the requirements of the priority action A.

Action 12 c continue developing data models for alternative fuels infrastructure, including the emerging needs concerning the communication of recharging stations with the grid. Concretely, new data models should cover the exchange of information regarding price, demand response, load control, metering and capacity forecast The work shall be in coherence with existing standards, Transmodel/ NeTEx/SIRI/ DATEX II – CEN/prTS 16157-10 and -12

Link Road Transport / Public transport

Action 12 d to complete the infrastructure data model/data exchange format for the entire cycle network (i.e. entire cycling network and of roads in which cycles are allowed together with other vehicles or are forbidden) together with detailed cycle network attributes (e.g. surface quality, side-by-side cycling, etc) and the entire pedestrian network with accessibility features. The work shall take into account the existing results of INSPIRE. It shall also consider the achievements of the GDF standard and possibility of Open Street Map and shall be linked to Transmodel/NeTEx (in particular to trip/route representation).

Action 12 e to develop clear interoperability between key data modelling concepts for the parking domain, bringing alignment between existing standards (Transmodel/NeTEx, DATEX II and ISO/prTS 5206-1).

Action 12 f to develop the data model/data exchange format of the overall typology of Points of Interest to support the requirements of priority Action A.

Action 12 g to develop clear interoperability between Transmodel/NeTEx service network and the INSPIRE infrastructure network in order to respond properly to the provisions of priority Action A.

Action 13 SDOs, to consider, in cooperation with the Commissionand relevant stakeholders,possible further actions addressing the following aspects:

To develop a glossary of terms with their definitions in the contextof ITS, based as far as possible on the Public Transport Reference Data Model (Transmodel)

To provide standardized means to define the content and applicability of traffic regulations and to provide standardized means to exchange Traffic Regulations robustly and securely between interested parties (METR). It is also necessary to provide mechanisms to support verification of content for Electronic Traffic Regulations.

To provide standards to manage operations and enforcement in controlled traffic zones.

To consider standards to manage services that impact or part of urban transport, e.g. management of road gritters, road maintenance operations, buses, waste collection, social service visits, etc. ITS technologies can be used to assist administrations to manage such services.

With respect to Mobility platforms, including Mobility as a Service (MaaS), SDOs to provide further deliverables, in coherence and coordination with sectorial standards developed, related to the specification of “sales with and without reservation, fulfilment, after sales and payments”.

To deliver interface specifications for roadside sensors to roadside controllers.

To integrate app based new mobility services and vulnerable road users into the overall traffic planning by providing Standardised APIs for smartphone data collection and distribution.

Action 14 SDOs to develop standards supporting the emerging IFM, taking into account the findings from the smart ticketing alliance. This should include thedevelopment of:

technical specifications and test procedures for the quality assurance of the interoperable fare medium;

technical specifications and standards for profiles of information exchange between the operational entities in IFM; and

a technical report for a security architecture framework.

DATA EXCHANGE AND REUSE

Action 15 Further development of the DATEX II standard taking into account input from road operators. The Programme Support Action (PSA) for Intelligent Transport Services for Road (ITS) in the framework of the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) focused on the maintenance and further development of DATEX II for the provision of interoperable intelligent transport systems and services for road transport, in compliance with European specifications developed under the ITS Directive.Additional developments include the Systematic Reviews and revisions of Parts 8 and 9 of CEN 16157, adaptation and extensions to support additional datasets and provisioning of support for Linked (open) Data. Developments include the standardisation of developments made by the DATEX II PSA supporting the use of alternative encoding protocols (JSON, ASN.1)

Action 16 European standardisation deliverables on reference data models, common data dictionaries and metadata structure across the three domains and specific European standards:

Multimodal information services: new mobility services, alternative fuels infrastructure;

Traffic management: static/dynamic road data, traffic and traffic control data, weather data and traffic prioritisation and access regulations;and

Urban logistics: intelligent parking for light vehicles/commercial vehicles/trucks and loading bays information and reservation services for special freight vehicles and logistic sectors

Action 17 Take action to improve harmonization between existing standards, most notably TN ITS (CEN/TS 17268) and DATEX II (CEN 16157 series), especially in relation to the carrying of information concerning road traffic regulations, taking into account European activities in this field (e.g. TN-ITS GO and NAPCORE sub-activity 4.1 DATEXII) and European specifications developed under the ITS Directive.

Action 18 Another issue is related to on board weighing systems for trucks, where different providers may equip the tractor and the trailers that it will tow. ESOs should develop an interface standard between the different suppliers to ensure that the on board weighing computer in the tractor will be able to receive the weights per axle of any trailer, store them, secure them, and then calculate the total weight of the vehicle. This standard could be based on cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITS).

Action 19 SDOs to consider standardisation activities in support of EU-wide data privacy policies (e.g. GDPR) in the area of ITS-CCAM, in compliance with European regulation and recommendations.

Action 20 building on the collaboration between the DATEX PSA and the Alliance for Parking Data Standards, finalise the revision of the DATEX II on parking data publication standard (CEN/TS 16157-6) and address the necessary harmonisation with Transmodel/NeTEx.

Action 21 continue actions to specify global common standards for the exchange of traffic management and road-related data, noting the collaboration between the DATEX PSA/NapCore, CEN/TC278/WG8 and ISO/TC204/WG9. This includes developments to support API specification.

Action 22 Provisioning of messaging structures and content complementary to the DATEX II standard (CEN 16157 series) to provide information about energy related infrastructure together with dynamic information on its availability (for example of electric charging station slots) is essential for vehicle drivers to determine their optimal routes and stops. This work will also take into account new forms of vehicles

SECURITY in the context of C-ITS

Action 23 SDOs to investigate security aspects of cooperative, connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM) and intelligent transportation systems. SDOs are invited to analyse the evolution of C-ITS ‘Day1’ standards from a security angle to support automated vehicles design and deployment. In particular, SDOs are invited to expand standards based on the already defined C-ITS security mechanisms to achieve appropriate levels of authenticity and integrity of messages being exchanged between fixed and mobile C-ITS stations for higher levels of automation use cases. Standards shall provide suitable mechanisms to support C-ITS services going beyond information services, building upon the C-ITS certificate & security policy published on the European C-ITS Point of Contact4 for the implementation of the EU C-ITS security credential management system according to COM (2016) 766 and COM(2018)283.

In addition, to perform a mapping and the respective gap analysis in the context and the respective work of the foreseen ISA/SAE 21434 standard and the upcoming UNECE Regulations on Cybersecurity and OTA updates. The purpose will be to identify the way-forward in concrete terms and in regards with the elements missing for a comprehensive coverage of Cybersecurity issues in the CCAM ecosystem. In the scope of this action should be included relevant policy-driven initiatives like the new ENISA study on the security of Smart Cars and V2X communications.

(C.) Activities and additional information

(C.1) Related standardisation activities
CEN, ISO, ETSI

CEN/CENELEC and ETSI have been working together on a basic set of standards for Cooperative Intelligence Transport Systems (C-ITS) since 2014 on the so-called ‘Release 1 specifications’. Work is currently underway in both CEN/CENELEC and ETSI to develop the next package of standards (Release 2).

CEN/TC 278 www.itsstandards.eu with ISO TC 204 and ETSI TC ITS [3]. Cooperation is also ensured through the ITS Standardisation Coordination Group (ITS-CG)

Release 1 has been finalised — see ETSI TC ITS technical report TR 101 067 with the Release 1 standards and the development of ISO TR 17465-3 with the CEN/ISO Release 1 list. A joint document listing Release 1 standards also includes relevant standards from other SDOs such as SAE and IEEE. Development of Release 2 is well advanced with all of the key documents in revision.

The progress of 3GPP and LTE V2X is also relevant, noting the impending completion of Release 14, given that this access technology may also serve C-ITS purposes. The co-existence of technologies from 3GPP with those from ITS is being actively addressed in collaboration between ETSI and 3GPP SA6 in the context of the ETSI TVRA revision and updates in all of the ETSI TC ITS WG5 security documents.

ISO

ISO TC22 & ISO TC204 (CEN/TC278 WG16 & TC 301), SAE: In-vehicle Platform.

HLC & JWG between TC204 and TC22 discussing how to continue activities.

SAE looks at electrical connections related activities.

ETSI, CEN, ISO, SAE, IEEE Evaluation of the application of existing standards is an ongoing activity.

Harmonisation task groups (HTGs) are looking into harmonisation needs between the standards developed by the different organisations.

CEN, ETSI

CEN and ETSI areworking, in consultation with main stakeholders (such as ASECAP and C2C CC), to find an appropriate solution to ensure non-detrimental interference from ITS-G5 and 3GPP-based direct communicationsystemsontoCEN DSRC technology at 5.8 GHz.

See also CEN/TR 16690 on Electronic fee collection — Guidelines for EFC applications based on in-vehicle ITS stations

CEN

CEN/TC 278 develop standards in the field of telematics to be applied to road traffic and transport, including those elements that need technical harmonization for intermodal operation in the case of other means of transport. It shall support: vehicle, container, swap body and goods wagon identification; communication between vehicles and road infrastructure; communication between vehicles; vehicle man machine interfacing as far as telematics is concerned; traffic and parking management; user fee collection; public transport management; user information.

CEN/TC278/WG8: DATEX data exchange standards. DATEX II is a standardised e-language for traffic and travel data exchange between traffic control centres, traffic information centres and service providers. Further standardisation activities address new domains like energy infrastructure and traffic regulations, in particular for Urban Vehicle Access Regulations.

CEN/TC 278 WG17 has been created specifically to address standardisation requirements for Urban ITS, initially focussing on the priority areas identified in M/546 but not limited only to these aspects. WG17 is not only a standards development group, but provides a cross cutting workspace to liaise with other SDOs.

ETSI

ETSI TC ITS have made separation between access layers (potentially with examples ETSI ITS-G5, 3GPP LTE-V2X PC5 etc. ) and upper layer protocols. Considering the continues improvements of access technologies, e.g. LTE-V2X PC5, NR-V2X PC5, IEEE 802.110p and IEEE 802.11bd It is important that this independence is maintained in future standardisation.

More in details, since edge computing is a key priority area for V2X services, ETSI ISG MEC (Multi-access Edge Computing) has established a collaboration with 5GAA (5G Automotive Association). Recently 5GAA also joined ETSI ISG MEC membership.

ETSI, IEEE

ETSI, in close collaboration with IEEE (for 1609.2 and 1609.2.1), maintain development of protocols for ITS Security. In 2021 the primary developments for C-ITS Release-2 Security have been completed and extensions to address misbehaviour reporting (TS 103 759), as well as developing a wider understanding of the risk environment are at the forefront of the security workplan. This includes extension of risk analysis to address the roles and risks from RSUs, Central ITS authorities, data on vehicles and remote access to that data, and to more fully address any security requirements arising from integration of multiple radio connectivity options (LTE/5G-V2X, ITS-G5/DSRC, others).

ISO/IEC JTC1

The Collaboration on ITS Communication Standards provides a globally recognized forum for the coordination of an internationally accepted, globally harmonized set of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) communication standards of the highest quality in the most expeditious manner possible to enable the rapid deployment of fully interoperable ITS communication-related products and services in the global marketplace.

The Collaboration meetings are typically held twice a year (March and September), and are usually organized back-to-back with other ITS events, including theSymposia on the Future Networked Car. During the CITS meetings, the representatives of relevant SDOs are invited to submit to the Collaboration meetings status reports on ITS standardisation ongoing in their respective organizations. Based on the pertinent inputs and presentations, CITS maintains the globalITS Communication Standards Database.

IEEE

IEEE has standards activities in support of the digital transformation of transportation addressing e.g. communication, sensors, safety, and electric charging of EVs.

IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee:
• Intra-vehicle communication: WGs 802.3/802.1 evolve Ethernet standards to support high bitrates and Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) in a vehicle.
• V2X-wireless communication: WG: 802.11 (WLAN): the physical layer for mission critical communication and ad-hoc V2X networking has been optimized in the dedicated 5.9 GHz spectrum (IEEE 802.11p). The ongoing work on the next generation of IEEE 802.11p, i.e. 802.11bd will support many more use cases. ETSI ITS G5 relies on IEEE 802.11p and will benefit from 802.11bd.

The Dedicated Short Range Communication Working Group develops the IEEE WAVE family of standards (Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments). WAVE adds a whole protocol stack on top of IEEE 802.11p/bd. In particular, IEEE 1609.2 standardises a PKI based security architecture and security functions for V2X.
ETSI ITS-G5 and IEEE WAVE coordinate to harmonize security features for V2xX.

The Automotive Image Quality Working Group (in particular IEEE P2020) standardises a suite of objective and subjective test methods for measuring automotive camera image quality attributes, and tools and test methods to facilitate decision making among OEM and Tier 1 system integrators and component vendors regarding automotive ADAS image quality.

The Lidar Working Group develops a Standard for the Performance of Lidar Used in Traffic Speed Measurements (P2452) and a Standard for Test Methods of Automotive Lidar Performance (P2936)

The Automated Vehicles Standards Committee develops a Standard for Automotive Radar Performance Metrics and Testing Methods for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Automated Driving System (ADS) Applications (IEEE P3116)

The Smart Transportation enabling Terminal Working Group (STTWG) of the Smart Devices Standards Committee SDSC develops a Standard for Edge Intelligent Terminal for Expressway Cooperative Transportation (IEEE P2979)

A WG of the ITS Standards Committee develops a standard for a Formal Model for Safety Considerations in Automated Vehicle Decision Making (in particular P2846).
The WG ‘Exchange/Interoperability format for functional safety analysis and safety verification of IP, SoC and mixed signal ICs’ (in particular P2851) defines a data format with which results of safety analyses (such as FMEA, FMEDA, FMECA, FTA) and related safety verification activities - such as fault injection - executed for IPs, SoCs and mixed signal ICs can be exchanged and made available to system integrators. The goal of the standard is to provide a common ground for EDA, SoC and IP vendors in needs of developing tools, SoC and IP for safety critical applications.

The Distributed Ledger Technology in Connected and Autonomous Vehicles WG (in particular P2418.4) provides a common framework for distributed ledger technology (DLT) usage, implementation, and interaction in connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs).

The Software & Systems Engineering Standards Committee (C/S2ESC) has several WGs to develop a family of standards (P70xx series) for ethical considerations in a broad range of artificial intelligence/autonomous system uses, including vehicular contexts.

The ‘Smart Grid Powerline Communication’ WG develops IEEE 1901 to provide broadband over powerline communications to be used e.g. when charging electric vehicles (EVs).
The Working Group ‘Creating technical specifications of quick charger for electric Vehicles’ develops IEEE 2030.1.1 for a DC quick and bi-directional Charger for Use with Electric Vehicles.

IETF

The Emergency Context Resolution with Internet Technologies (ECRIT) Working Group has developed a general architecture for enabling IP applications to discover and connect to emergency services.

The [https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/geopriv/about/ Geographic Location/Privacy? (GEOPRIV) Working Group) has developed protocols that allow IP networks to inform end devices about their geolocation, a critical pre-requisite for emergency calling.

The application-specific working groups in the IETF (for example, the [https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/sipcore/about/ Session Initiation Protocol Core (SIPCORE) Working Group) have developed extensions to support emergency calling as required.

The IP Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (ipwave) WG works on Vehicle-2-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-2-Internet (V2I) use-cases where IP is well-suited as a networking technology and will develop an IPv6 based solution to establish direct and secure connectivity between a vehicle and other vehicles or stationary systems. These vehicular networks are characterized by dynamically changing network topologies and connectivity.

V2V and V2I communications may involve various kinds of link layers: 802.11-OCB (Outside the Context of a Basic Service Set), 802.15.4 with 6lowpan, 802.11ad, VLC (Visible Light Communications), IrDA, LTE-D, LP-WAN. One of the most used link layers for vehicular networks is IEEE 802.11-OCB, as a basis for Dedicated short-range communications (DSRC). Several of these link-layers already provide support for IPv6. However, IPv6 on 802.11-OCB is yet to be fully defined. Some aspects of the IPv6 over 802.11-OCB work have been already defined at IEEE 1609 and the specification produced by this working group is expected be compatible with these aspects.

This group’s primary deliverable (and the only Standards track item) will be a document that will specify the mechanisms for transmission of IPv6 datagrams over IEEE 802.11-OCB mode.

OASIS

OASIS hosts the Open Mobility Foundation (OMF) OASIS Open Project, an open source project launched by a coalition of cities and mobility and software vendors to provide an end-to-end set of standardized data specifications and open source software for managing traffic, availability and route planning for micromobility devices (such as dockless e-scooters). Various standards and code modules for vehicle ID, monitoring, traffic, parking control, consumer/passenger privacy, and policy issues are under development.

oneM2M

A distinguishing feature of oneM2M is its Basic Ontology specification, which enables semantic and syntactic interoperability across the IoT. This will become increasingly important as greater quantities of data are generated and shared across the IoT.

oneM2M has been designed for interworking: so it naturally lends itself to be used as a factory hub aggregating modern equipment (e.g. OPC-UA based), legacy controllers and the plethora of sensors that are being added to equipment to provide input for innovative applications and whose characteristics and usage do not match well with many of the controllers that are commonly used.
It is used, e.g., in BaSys 4.0, the Industrie 4.0 open-source middleware that has been funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) since 2016, whose implementation is available as Eclipse Project BaSyx.

Furthermore, the interconnection capabilities that facilitate interoperability among smart cities also enable oneM2M to be used to support the operations of distributed, coupled supply chains.

These characteristics have been outlined in a recent study by ETSI (ETSI TR 103 536 - Strategic / technical approach on how to achieve interoperability/interworking of existing standardized IoT Platforms)

International cooperation for the development of harmonised global standards is particularly important in these areas. The Commission has concluded agreements with the US Department of Transport and with the Japanese Ministry for Land Transport and Industry. Cross-regional harmonisation task groups (HTGs) have been established in this area.

ETSI has cooperation and liaison agreements with relevant standards organisations such as IEEE, SAE, ISO, IETF, and standardisation supporting industry groups like TISA. Additionally ETSI have liaisons and contacts with regional and national standards organisations such as ARIB (Japan), CCSA (China) and TTA (Korea) and the Asian Pacific Telecommunication organisation (APT).

ITU has launched the Collaboration on ITS Communication Standards (CITS) aims at providing a globally recognized forum for the creation of an internationally accepted, globally harmonised set of ITS communication standards of the highest quality in the most expeditious manner possible to enable the rapid deployment of fully interoperable ITS communication-related products and services in the global marketplace.
