Introduction (1)

• Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) address
  telematics and all
• types of communications in vehicles, between
  vehicles and
• between vehicles and fixed locations
• ETSI, with its wide range of telecommunications
  standardisation
• activities for fixed and mobile networks and
  services contributes to this
• area of converging technologies
• Collaboration with ISO/TC 204 WG 16 CALM project
  - Continuous Air
• Interface for Long and Medium distance (CALM)
  project is part of
• ETSIs brief
• The CALM infrastructures includes DSRC, GSM,
  2.5G, 3G,
• and infra-red transmission
• DSRC applications will be in the 5.8 to 5.9GHz
  frequency band

Introduction (2)

• The ETSI Strategy 2003 defines Intelligent
  Transport Systems (ITS) as an important emerging
  topic
• ETSI has the following Task Groups committed to
• supporting ITS activities
• ERM-TG04 - Automotive EMC
• ERM-TG29 - DSRC Radio Standards for Road
  Transport
• and Traffic Telematics in the ISM band of 5,8 GHz
• ERM-TG31B Ultra Wide Band Automotive Radar
• ERM -TG37 Intelligent Transport Systems

ETSI Activities Specific to Intelligent
Transportation Systems (1)

• The revision of the Automotive EMC Directive is
  relevant to ITS applications
• ERM-TG04 - Automotive EMC - is responsible for
  all matters relating
• to the Automotive EMC Directive (95/54/EC) and to
  the EMC Directive
• for two and three wheeled motor vehicles
  (97/24/EC) in respect of
• radiocommunications equipment fitted to, or used
  in, or adjacent to, a
• vehicle
• ERM-TG04 is to actively participate in drafting
  guidelines and any
• amendments to above Directive or standards
  associated to this
• Directive
• ERM-TG04 is to consider all aspects covering
  automotive radio equipment

ETSI Activities Specific to Intelligent
Transportation Systems (2)

• ERM-TG29 - DSRC Radio Standards for Road
  Transport and Traffic Telematics in the ISM band
  of 5,8 GHz
• ETSI had developed a number of deliverables to
  cover the regulatory and testing requirements for
  DSRC in the field of RTTT
• ERM-TG29 is to revise EN 300 674 to align with
  the revision of ENV 12253 to EN-status by CEN/TC
  278
• ERM-TG29 is to verify the CEN proposals for
  possible conflicts with regulatory and/or
  spectrum management requirements
• Specify product requirements (parameter values
  and test methods) for
• Roadside Units and On-Board Units as EN 300 674-1
  complementary
• to the CEN proposals
• Identify essential requirements under the RTTE
  Directive to facilitate the preparation of a
  harmonised standard EN 300 674-2

ETSI Activities Specific to Intelligent
Transportation Systems (3)

• ERM-TG31B Ultra Wide Band Automotive Radar
•  
• ERM -TG31B is to develop standards, system
  reference documents or
• other technical documents for short-range devices
  as covered by the
• ECC SRD Rec. 70-03 and the relevant ECC Decisions
  in the field of
• automotive ultra wideband radar applications
• ERM -TG31B will also investigate spectrum
  parameters for use in
• automotive radar systems in order to ensure the
  efficient use of the
• radio spectrum, considering global harmonisation

ETSI Activities Specific to Intelligent
Transportation Systems (4)

• ERM -TG37 Intelligent Transport Systems
• ERM -TG37 is to liase with other groups active in
  the ITS field, for
• example CEN TC 278 and ISO TC 204, to provide
  ETSI deliverables as
• appropriate, in particular for protocol
  specifications and conformance
• testing 
• ERM -TG37 will also act as a focus within ETSI
  for ITS activities, and
• will liase with ERM RM on spectrum issues
• The Task Group will provide ETSI input to the
  ICTSB/ITSSG, which is
• intended to provide strategic co-ordination on
  ITS issues

CEPT Recommendation 70-03 - Road Transport and
Traffic Telematics (RTTT)

• Frequency band a - 5795 to 5805 MHz (intended for
  road to vehicle
• systems, particularly (but not exclusively) road
  toll systems)
• Frequency band b - 5805 to 5815 MHz (on a
  National licensed basis)
• Frequency bands a) and b) are recommended for 5
  MHz channel
• spacing systems with the centre frequencies
  5797.5 MHz, 5802.5
• MHz, 5807.5 MHz and 5812.5 MHz with a 10 MHz
  channel spacing
• for 5800 MHz and 5810 MHz
• Frequency band c - 63 to 64 GHz (vehicle to
  vehicle and road to
• vehicle systems)
• Frequency band d - 76 to 77 GHz (vehicle and
  infrastructure
• radar systems)

Conclusion

• Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS)
  standardisation is an area of activity that
  merits the active co-operation
• of GRSC PSOs
• Motor vehicles are a global commodity and hence a
  global solution is required for ITS systems
