5	KEY SAFETY PROGRAM OBJECTIVES 2013 Decision on Vehicle Communications for Safety (light vehicles) 2014 Decision on Vehicle Communications for Safety (heavy vehicles) 2015 Infrastructure Implementation Guidance
6	REMAINING RESEARCH IN SUPPORT OF 2013 DECISION Interoperability à standards Data Communications Security Driver Clinics User acceptance data Model Deployment Safety system effectiveness data Real world operational proof Device Certification Policy Implementation Issues
7	Outstanding Technical Issues Security Establishing trust relationships Credential management Congestion mitigation Ensuring messages arrive when they need to
8	The DSRC Technology for Safety What it is Wi-fi radio product adapted for high speed environment Cheap to produce in quantity How the technology works Generates/receives messages at 10 times/sec Basic Safety Message (vehicle size, position, speed, heading, acceleration, brake system status) Operating range of 300 meters (line-of-sight) Necessary for crash imminent situations Benefits of the technology Reduced Price Less False Alarms à Delayed warnings More Crash Scenarios à Increased performance Can communicate around vehicles and blind intersections Drawback of the technology Both vehicles need to be equipped

10	SAFETY PILOT - TRYING TO DETERMINE… User acceptance Safety system effectiveness values How the system operates in a real world, concentrated environment Applications Security The role that aftermarket devices can play in accelerating benefits Questions Do aftermarket devices have the potential for accelerating benefits for safety? If DSRC is mandated for safety, what is the growth potential for this enabling technology? Or is this anticipated to be a niche market for safety only?

20	BASIC SAFETY MESSAGE (BSM) FUNDAMENTALS Connected V2V safety applications are built around the BSM, which has two parts BSM Part 1: Contains the core data elements (vehicle size, position, speed, heading acceleration, brake system status) Transmitted approximately 10 times per second BSM Part 2: Added to part 1 depending upon events (e.g., ABS activated) Contains a variable set of data elements drawn from many optional data elements (availability by vehicle model varies) Transmitted less frequently No on-vehicle BSM storage of BSM data The BSM is transmitted over DSRC (range ~1,000 meters) The BSM is tailored for low latency, localized broadcast required by V2V safety applications
