Major IntelliDrive Objectives
  • Move aggressively on vehicle to vehicle communications
        • Regulatory Decision on In-Vehicle Equipment by 2013
  • Accelerate in-vehicle technology
        • “Here I Am” messages
        • Enables safety and active traffic management
  • Accelerate infrastructure communications capability
        • Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) as initial focus
        • Enables safety, mobility, and environmental applications
  • On road multi-modal pilot deployments for high-value applications
  • Monitor and evaluation of driver distraction issues
  • Understand benefits and communications needs (DSRC/other) of transformative mobility applications


5
Evolution of IntelliDrive Deployment
  • Original VII Deployment Model
    • DSRC based for all applications
      • Infrastructure intensive using new DSRC technology
      • Vehicle turnover for embedded DSRC technology
    • Start with V2I (for all application types) and evolve into V2V (safety)
  • US DOT’s Current Perspective on IntelliDrive Deployment
    • Non-safety (mobility, environment)
      • Leverage existing data sources  & communications; include DSRC as it becomes available
      • Support development of key applications for public agencies using current data sources and evolving probe data from IntelliDrive
    • Safety à DSRC
      • Aggressively pursue V2V; leverage vehicle capability for V2I spot safety
      • Can leveraging of nomadic devices & retrofitting accelerate benefits?
      • Infrastructure requirement for security is still a TBD


6
Opportunity for Safer Driving
  • Greater situational awareness
    • Your vehicle can “see” nearby vehicles and knows roadway conditions you can’t see
  • Reduce or even eliminate crashes thru:
    • Driver Advisories
    • Driver Warnings
    • Vehicle Control
7
Key Elements of the IntelliDrive Safety Program
  • DSRC for low latency needs
  • OEM, retrofit, aftermarket device scenarios being considered for deployment
  • All vehicle types being examined for value added applications
  • Programs are structured towards achieving deployment
  • Establishing national level interoperability àOpen standards for communications and data
  • Introduction of new systems/devices must consider driver distraction safety issues
  • Ensure adequate levels of security
  • Reasonably protect personal privacy
  • Activities supportive of mobility and convenience applications

Technical and Policy Interactions
11
Outstanding Technical Issues
  • Penetration vs. Effectiveness
  • Driver Acceptance
  • Data Security
  • Positioning
  • Scalability
  • Channel Switching
  • Being addressed under current CAMP activities
  • Establish independent technical peer review
  • Safety Pilot to provide real-world deployment for proving out solutions



12
Outstanding Safety Policy Issues
  • How will tradeoffs between security, privacy and functionality be managed?
  • Operations
      • Who will monitor for misbehavior?
      • Who will operate the Security Certificate Authority?
  •  Compliance & Enforcement
      • Who will enforce DSRC standards?
      • How will the rules of operation be developed and enforced?
      • Who and how will DSRC devices be certified?
  • Critical V2V and V2I Policy Issues Being Defined
  • V2V Policy White Paper /Roadmaps Defined and Being Executed
  • Internal and External Stakeholder  Engagement Being Defined


13
Large Scale Multi-Application Pilot
  • Establish pilot V2I deployment that includes infrastructure and back office management
  • Encompasses all application types
  • Includes multiple wireless communication media
  • Follow on to current activities in:
      • Systems Engineering
      • SPaT development
      • Standards update
      • Aftermarket device maturity
      • Safety Pilot
  • Small prototyping over next 2 years
  • Currently under consideration for development
