Get Smart: Jargon Busting on the Road
As Highway England develops Smart Highways, it’s time to familiarise yourself with the Intelligent Transport System and its technical jargon with this glossary.
(firmenpresse) - Youivers. Known as the National Roads Telecommunications, the plans include the installation of a high-speed-fibre-optic cable network. It will provide internet connectivity to road signals, speed limits, beam traffic information and CCTV cameras. The final goal is to connect it to smart vehicles, too.
As an owner driver, it
V2X: Vehicle-to-Everything
V2X is an all-encompassing term that describes the standards that are being set for vehicle-to-vehicle communications, for connectivity protocols between on-board vehicle systems, and for communications between vehicles and road infrastructure.
You should also note that, in Europe, V2X development is part of ETSI
802.11p
In the same way that the military and police have their own communication channel, creators of the V2X quickly realised that they would need an exclusive bandwidth to stop hackers or unauthorised people from accessing safety-critical wireless communications. This is where the IEEE 802.11p comes in. Specifically created for V2X and Intelligent Transport Systems apps, it has been engineered to use 75 MHz bandwidth on the 5.9 GHz spectrum only. Essentially, it means that other vehicles and infrastructure won
V2V
Vehicle-to-Vehicle refers to communications between trucks. This is a useful tool for any owner driver, as it is being developed for autonomous vehicles. You may already have heard of its use in driver assistance systems, with vehicles that brake on their own or can park themselves.
V2V also includes:
V2i
When an on-board vehicle system can connect with external infrastructure, this is referred to as Vehicle-to-Infrastructure communication. This includes interactions with Smart Motorway data points, as well as the use of electronic tolling systems.
C-ITS
Coined by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), Co-Operative ITS refers to applications that simplify road communications. These apps will improve travel safety and better traffic management, as well as limiting environmental impacts. It is ideal for any owner driver, as the C-ITS supports full autonomous driving.
ITS-G5
Standardised across the EU, ITS-G5 refers to the automotive ITS and Road Transport and Traffic Telematics (RTTT) regulations. As Intelligent Transport Systems across the EU will use the same 5.9 HMz frequency, all transport safety applications will be available across the continent.
DRSC
An exchange of data between your vehicle and the roadside is known as Dedicated Short Range Communications. Toll plazas, for instance, use this system.
Keep this glossary as a reference guide. With Smart Vehicles becoming increasingly popular, it will make your job as an owner driver easier until you
