Definitions

signal service request (Information Flow): A call for service or extension for a signal control phase that is issued by the RSE for connected vehicles approaching an intersection and/or pedestrians at a crosswalk. This flow identifies the desired phase and service time.

Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment (Source Physical Object): 'Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment' (CV RSE) represents the Connected Vehicle roadside devices that are used to send messages to, and receive messages from, nearby vehicles using Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) or other alternative wireless communications technologies. 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.

ITS Roadway Equipment (Destination Physical Object): 'ITS Roadway Equipment' represents the ITS equipment that is distributed on and along the roadway that monitors and controls traffic and monitors and manages the roadway. This physical object includes traffic detectors, environmental sensors, traffic signals, highway advisory radios, dynamic message signs, CCTV cameras and video image processing systems, grade crossing warning systems, and ramp metering systems. Lane management systems and barrier systems that control access to transportation infrastructure such as roadways, bridges and tunnels are also included. This object also provides environmental monitoring including sensors that measure road conditions, surface weather, and vehicle emissions. Work zone systems including work zone surveillance, traffic control, driver warning, and work crew safety systems are also included.

US: NTCIP Signal Priority - SNMPv3/TLS (5)
(None-Data) - Secure Internet (ITS) (32)

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

Selected Solution

US: NTCIP Signal Priority - SNMPv3/TLS

Solution Description

This solution is used within the U.S.. It combines standards associated with US: NTCIP Signal Priority with those for I-F: SNMPv3/TLS. The US: NTCIP Signal Priority standards include upper-layer standards required to implement center-to-field traffic signal control priority communications (e.g., for busses and emergency vehicles). The I-F: SNMPv3/TLS standards include lower-layer standards that support secure center-to-field and field-to-field communications using simple network management protocol (SNMPv3); implementations are strongly encouraged to use the TLS for SNMP security option for this solution to ensure adequate security.

Interoperability	Description
Local	In cases where an interface is normally encapsulated by a single stakeholder, interoperability is still desirable, but the motive is vendor independence and the efficiencies and choices that an open standards-based interface provides.

Security

	Confidentiality	Integrity	Availability
Rating	Not Applicable	Moderate	Low
Basis	info is not confidential or encrypted	requests should be accurate and not tampered with, otherwise incorrect or malicious requests could be granted which could lead to delays	requests should be timely and available immediately but availability cannot be guaranteed over a wireless medium; also worst case scenario is the vehicle or pedestrian has to wait for the appropriate signal
