Definitions

pathway equipment state (Information Flow): Current state of the pathway equipment as it relates to use by pathway users (e.g., elevator on Floor 10, door open)

Pathway Equipment (Source Physical Object): 'Pathway Equipment' represents the equipment that is distributed along pathways that monitors and supports movement on the pathways and interfaces with electronic devices used by travelers on the pathways. This physical object includes elevators, escalators, electronic turnstiles, pedestrian (and other VRU) detectors, electronic signage, electronic waypoints, and warning systems for pathway users.

Personal Safety Device (Destination Physical Object): Personal Safety Device represents devices used by travelers (vulnerable road users) to support safe wayfinding. A personal safety device could include wearables like a specialized vest, backpack, cane, or any other safety peripheral used to enhance the safety of travelers while traveling along pathways.

Communication Solutions

(None-Data) - Local Unicast Wireless (1609.2) (51)
(None-Data) - Local Unicast Wireless (EU) (54)

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

Selected Solution

(None-Data) - Local Unicast Wireless (1609.2)

Solution Description

This solution is used within Canada and the U.S.. It combines standards associated with (None-Data) with those for V-X: Local Unicast Wireless (1609.2). The (None-Data) standards include an unspecified set of standards at the upper layers. The V-X: Local Unicast Wireless (1609.2) standards include lower-layer standards that support local-area unicast wireless solutions applicable to North America, such as WAVE DSRC, LTE-V2X, LTE, Wi-Fi, etc.

Note that some layers might have alternatives, in which case all of the gap icons associated with every alternative may be shown on the diagram, but the solution severity calculations (and resulting ordering of solutions) includes only the issues associated with the default (i.e., best, least severe) alternative.

Security

Information Flow Security
	Confidentiality	Integrity	Availability
Rating	Low	Moderate	Moderate
Basis	Probably no obfuscation is needed as most of the information in this flow should be otherwise observable.	Information should be correct and available or wayfinding will not function well. A re-levelling of integrity measures may consider this LOW, depending on the importance of wayfinding.	Information should be correct and available or wayfinding will not function well. Might be LOW depending on the importance attached to VRU wayfinding.
