Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment --> Personal Information Device:
local traveler information

Definitions

local traveler information (Information Flow): Traveler information including traffic, road, and weather conditions for a particular locality. This flow includes the location-specific traveler information and time effectivity of the information.

Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment (Source Physical Object): 'Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment' (CV RSE) represents the Connected Vehicle roadside devices (i.e., Roadside Units (RSUs)) equipped with short range wireless (SRW) communications technology, as well as any other supporting equipment that leverage the RSU and are not described by other objects (e.g., a local roadside processor). CVRSE are used to send messages to, and receive messages from, nearby vehicles and personal devices equipped with compatible communications technology. Communications with adjacent field equipment and back office centers that monitor and control the RSE are also supported. This device operates from a fixed position and may be permanently deployed or a portable device that is located temporarily in the vicinity of a traffic incident, road construction, or a special event. It includes a processor, data storage, and communications capabilities that support secure communications with passing vehicles, other field equipment, and centers.

Personal Information Device (Destination Physical Object): The 'Personal Information Device' provides the capability for travelers to receive formatted traveler information wherever they are. Capabilities include traveler information, trip planning, and route guidance. Frequently a smart phone, the Personal Information Device provides travelers with the capability to receive route planning and other personally focused transportation services from the infrastructure in the field, at home, at work, or while en-route. Personal Information Devices may operate independently or may be linked with vehicle on-board equipment. This subsystem also supports safety related services with the capability to broadcast safety messages and initiate a distress signal or request for help.

Communication Solutions

Solutions are sorted in ascending Gap Severity order. The Gap Severity is the parenthetical number at the end of the solution.

Selected Solution

US: SAE Traveler Info - WAVE WSMP

Solution Description

This solution is used within Canada and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with US: SAE Traveler Info with those for V-X: WAVE WSMP. The US: SAE Traveler Info standards include upper-layer standards required to implement V2X traveler information flows. The V-X: WAVE WSMP standards include lower-layer standards that support connectionless, near constant, ultra-low latency vehicle-to-any communications within ~300m using the WAVE Short Messaging Protocol (WSMP) over IEEE WAVE in the 5.9GHz spectrum. The broadcast mode is interoperable with M5 FNTP.

Basis This data is intentionally transmitted to everyone via a broadcast. It can also be determined via other visual indicators. Some minimal guarantee of data integrity is necessary for all C-ITS flows. Flaws in this information will have a minimal effect on systems receiving it. All of the information can be verified through other means, and in a worst case scenario will only cause slightly increased traffic in the general proximity of the RSE. All of the information provided through this flow will be available from other sources and no systems will directly rely upon it.
