  11. Collaboration on ITS Communications Standards Provide a globally recognized forum for the creation of an internationally accepted, globally harmonized set of ITS communication standards of the highest quality in the most expeditious manner possible to enable the rapid deployment of fully interoperable ITS communication-related products and services in the global marketplace.

  12. Collaboration History Starting point was a ISO/ITU joint workshop in August 2011 in Japan Regular, open, face-to-face meetings in different regions, collocated with relevant events and meetings. Remote phone participation available Participants have represented ITS communications activities of CCSA, ETSI, IEEE, ISO TC 204 WG 16, ITU-R, ITU-T, SAE International, TIA, TTC ITU-T TSAG decided to run this activity on a trial basis, TSB provides secretariat

  13. Collaboration Work Items • Study of high-priority ITS applications and their communications requirements • Gap analysis and quality assessment of current ITS communications standards • Converge, harmonize, and incorporate appropriate published and emerging ITS communications standards (regardless of their SDO source) into ITU Recommendations • Create a complete, coherent and effective package of security frameworks and standards for use within ITS communications

  14. Collaboration Work Items (2) • Develop standards to govern the interaction of drivers with communications devices brought into vehicles (e.g., smart phones) • Investigate regulatory and legislative actions necessary to facilitate the deployment of ITS communications products and services based on the standards being developed • Review mobility network services and ITS communications for their application as a 'last resort' supplement to other communication systems for emergency and disaster handling

  15. Collaboration Management • Interest and participation is encouraging • Joint effort needed • GSC organizations are invited to actively contribute and to join the Collaboration Management

  16. Upcoming Opportunities • Week of 24 June 2013, Geneva • 24-25 June: Q27/16 (vehicle gateway platform) • 25 June: opening of UNECE World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations (WP.29) with ITS segment • 26, 28 June: Collaboration meeting • 27 June: Joint ITU/UNECE workshop • [20-22 August 2013, North America (tbc)] • [12-13 October 2013, Tokyo (tbc, with ITS World Congress and ISO TC 204 WG16)]

  17. Additional Information and References • Collaboration website http://itu.int/en/ITU-T/extcoop/cits/ • Terms of Reference • List of Work Items • Requirements report (August 2012) • Standards catalogue questionnaire • Working procedures

  18. Highlights of ISO TC 204 WG 16 Current Activities • The following material is from Mitch Tseng, Rapporteur, ISO TC204 WG16 • The group has published and is maintaining 20 standards • The recent activities focus on the following areas • ITS Architecture (Revision on Communication access, and ETSI EN 302 665 alignment) • IPv6 for ITS Communication access (IPv6 Security, Optimization and Flow Paths) • 6LowPAN and COAP for ITS Communication Access • ITS Station Flow Management • Pre-emption of ITS communication networks for disaster and emergency communication • Dedicated short range communication (DSRC) - DSRC application layer • Probe data revision to accommodate harmonized ITS-S Architecture • LTE as means of ITS Communication Access

  19. ISO TC 204 WG 16 Strategic Direction • The focus of ISO TC204 WG16 is to develop ITS standards with the following aspects • ITS Architecture • Media (used for ITS Communications) • Networking Aspects for ITS (including IP aspects and network management) • Probe Data • Application Management • Disaster Recovery Communications • Security Aspects • Collaboration with other Standard Development groups • IEEE 1609 • IETF • ETSI TC ITS • CEN • ITU (Collaboration on ITS Communication Standards)

  20. ISO TC 204 WG 16 Challenges • Opportunities to collaborate with other ITS Standard Development Groups • Meeting time and location alignment • Sharing of expertise on global ITS work • WG16 has been trying to co-located with other groups in meeting planning • ITS is a broad subject, so the focus on each region may not always be aligned • Harmonize regional approaches and requirements to avoid redundancy

  21. ITS Vehicle Safety Communications Is Under Attack in the U.S. • 2012 legislation required the U.S. government to examine the dedicated use of 5.9 GHz • This was the result of an effort lead by Wi-Fi suppliers like Cisco • The U.S. National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) preliminary draft report recommends allowing unlicensed users in 5.9 GHz • ITS America and vehicle manufacturers wrote an objection • The Chairman of the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) stated at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) that the FCC plans to allow Wi-Fi in 5.9 GHz • The Administrator of the U.S. National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) has questioned to practicality of the security approach proposed for IEEE 802.11p

  22. WAVE vs. TD-LTE • IEEE 802.11p is an isolated technology left over from the 20th century, with no other uses than ITS • TD-LTE is the mainstream for mobile communications • Moving 5.9 GHz (760 MHz in Japan) DSRC to use TD-LTE will give ITS communications long-term relevance • The same changes that took IEEE 802.11a to IEEE 802.11p can be made to TD-LTE to provide dedicated proximity communications for vehicle-to-vehicle safety applications • 3GPP is already working on proximity, possible for Release 12 • Public safety communications in the U.S are moving to LTE and other regions will follow
