  1. Vehicle-Infrastructure Integration: Test Bed and Model Deployment Glenn N. Havinoviski, P.E. Associate Vice President and ITS Group Director HNTB Corporation Arlington, Virginia USA Presented for ITS Virginia Annual Conference and Exhibition Virginia Beach, VA April 29-30, 2008

  2. Role of VII in ITS • VII is proposed as the means through which future vehicle safety enhancements and in-vehicle services are delivered

  3. Growth of VII • Earliest application – Electronic Toll Collection • Concept derived from earlier work on National ITS Architecture, Intelligent Vehicle Initiative and Automated Highway Systems • Development of 5.9 GHz Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) and 802.11p wireless standards • Joint effort involving USDOT, state DOT’s (through AASHTO), auto and electronics industries

  4. Private Sector Uses VII Network E-payment • Real Time Network Data Signal Timing • Situation-Relevant Information Probe Data V2V Safety Communications Instrumented Roadside The VII Concept

  5. Roadside Infrastructure

  6. Vehicle-Side Technologies (OBE) • Human interface • GPS

  7. DSRC • FCC licensed at 5.9Ghz • Addresses physical layer – 802.11p • Other possible communications (short term) • Satellite • Cellular

  8. Roadside Equipment (RSE) • GPS, DSRC, routers, processors • Network management • Service delivery modes

  9. Intersection Crash Avoidance 9

  10. “Up-Ahead” Warnings Surface conditions Stopped vehicles Exits & works zones Electronic brake light 10

  11. Mobility Applications • Real-time travel info • Incident Alerts • Road Closures • Work Zones • Real-time Navigation 11

  12. Payment and Private Services Electronic payment Tollways Parking Gas stations Private sector Vehicle diagnostics Vendor enhanced information User specific routing 12

  13. Data for Operating Agency Traffic probes Weather information Road surface conditions Historical travel data Traffic management – signal timing 13

  14. Applications for Road Maintenance Snow plow / salt deployment Detect and repair potholes 14

  15. Michigan VII Initiatives • Test Beds • Model Deployment • Proof-of-Concept (USDOT) …..85 miles of road coverage with over 100 RSU’s

  16. VII Activities in Michigan 16

  17. Test Beds • Testing of Vehicle Data Exchange • Identification of Potential VII Deployment Issues

  18. Test Bed Partners • Michigan DOT • Road Commission of Oakland County • HNTB • Motorola • Rauhorn Electric 18

  19. Testing of Vehicle Data Exchange Pre-application evaluation - MDOT VII Data Use And Processing (DUAP) Vehicle diagnostic data exchange Technical considerations – Using “surrogate” radio communication 19

  20. Comm Networks for Test Beds Surrogate communications using… 802.11 WiFi MotoMESH 802.11b Upgradeability to DSRC 20

  21. Identification of Deployment Issues Communications at freeway speeds Scalability issues Infrastructure issues Protocol issues Input to USDOT Deployment Decision in Late ‘08 21

  22. Model Deployment • Michigan Regional ITS Deployment Environment (MiRIDE) • 8 RSU’s over 6 miles • Within USDOT Test Environment • Approx. 70 vehicles • Builds on Initial Test Bed Activities

  23. Model Deployment Partners • Michigan DOT • Road Commission of Oakland County • HNTB with PB, Kimley-Horn • Motorola • Daktronics • University of Michigan • Motor City

  24. Emphasis on Information Integration of Test Beds Further Development of DUAP Travel Times Incidents Predicted Congestion Weather Potholes / Road Conditions Archived Data Demo at ITS World Congress 24

  25. Summary Lots of promise regarding coverage and benefits Intensive testing efforts are addressing various technical, communications and application issues Institutional and commercial issues remain to be resolved – 800 lb. gorillas 25
