Abstract

This document describes the key actors in the eCall chain of service provision in hybrid circuit switched/packet switched network
environments as:
1) In-Vehicle System (IVS)/vehicle,
2) Mobile Network Operator (MNO),
3) Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP),
and to provide conformance tests for actor groups 1) – 3).
NOTE 1 Conformance tests are not appropriate nor required for vehicle occupants, although they are the recipient of the service.
NOTE 2 Third party eCall systems (TPS-eCall) are not within the scope of this deliverable. This is because the core TPS-eCall
standard (EN 16102) does not specify the communications link between the vehicle and the TPS service provider.
NOTE 3 These conformance tests are partly based on the appropriate conformance tests from EN 16454 and CEN/prEN 17240.
This deliverable therefore adapts and revises Conformance Test Protocols (CTP) from EN 16454 and CEN/prEN 17240 for hybrid circuit switched/packet switched network environments.
This document complements EN 16454 and CEN/prEN 17240 and provides a suite of conformance tests for IVS equipment, MNOs and PSAPs, required to ensure and demonstrate compliance with CEN/prEN 17905.
The scope covers conformance testing of new engineering developments, products and systems, and does not imply testing associated with individual installations in vehicles or locations.

EN 18052:2025/prA1 is a CEN draft amendment to the European standard on eCall end-to-end conformance testing in hybrid circuit switched/packet switched network environments. It specifies conformance tests for the In-Vehicle System (IVS), Mobile Network Operator (MNO), and Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) parts of the eCall chain, so engineers can verify how eCall behaves across domain selection, fallback, call-back, and message handling cases.

What does EN 18052:2025/prA1 specify?

EN 18052:2025/prA1 specifies how to test eCall HLAP behavior in hybrid network environments where both circuit switched and packet switched service are involved. The scope focuses on conformance testing for the IVS/vehicle, the MNO, and the PSAP, because these are the actors that make the service work in practice.

EN 18052:2025/prA1 excludes vehicle occupants from conformance testing and leaves TPS-eCall outside its scope. The document also states that the tests are for new engineering developments, products, and systems, not for checking individual vehicle installations or local site installations.

The amendment is organized as changes to the normative references, eCall timers, test applicability, and many conformance test protocols in Clauses 9 and 11. It revises test cases for IVS behavior, eCall-only IVS behavior, and PSAP behavior.

What are the key requirements of EN 18052:2025/prA1?

EN 18052:2025/prA1 mainly updates when tests apply, how the tester can interact with the system, and how hybrid-network eCall cases are checked. The practical effect is that labs and implementers need to re-read the affected test cases, because many pass conditions now depend on release alignment, supported capabilities, and the actual eCall domain path taken by the IVS.

Applicability and reference updates

  • Clause 2 updates the normative references to ETSI TS 124 229 and ETSI TS 123 167 so that the release conditions reflect eCall over 4G and eCall over 5G. In practice, this keeps the test basis aligned with the radio and session behavior that the IVS is expected to support.
  • Clause 8.4 revises the CTP test applicability note so that the release range for ETSI specifications is treated consistently, and the note now points to completed alignment work in ETSI/3GPP Release 19. This matters because a test may be applicable only when the IVS supports the relevant capability as defined for the release range in use.
  • Several test cases use updated applicability logic tied to ETSI TS 124 229 behavior, including cases where PSAP call rejection or call failure already triggers the required domain behavior. In practice, testers must confirm the supported feature set before deciding whether a test is run or skipped.

IVS behavior in hybrid eCall cases

  • Many IVS test cases in Clause 9.2 now allow the IVS to have completed or skipped network registration before the eCall. This is important because the conformance target is the eCall result, not whether registration happened in exactly one way.
  • Several table updates delete the wording “or manual” from tester actions. That means the tests are being tightened around defined protocol behavior rather than manual intervention.
  • Clause 9.2 includes multiple domain change and fallback scenarios, such as fallback to IMS emergency call in PS domain, fallback to emergency call in CS domain, and switching between PS and CS after eCall failure, rejection, or abnormal termination. These tests check whether the IVS can recover the call in the correct domain after a failure.
  • Clause 9.2.18 sets a redial behavior after abnormal termination in PS domain, with a redial attempt expected within 2 minutes and a 5% admissible margin. In practice, this checks the IVS retry logic under a realistic network failure.
  • Clause 9.2.34 and the related persistence cases check that the IVS remains registered after in-call domain handover or domain change. Clause 9.3.6 also tests registration persistence for an eCall-only IVS over a defined time window. These tests matter because the system must stay reachable long enough for emergency handling to continue.
  • Clause 9.2.40 updates MSD transfer using in-band modem in PS domain after negative or missing AL-ACK. That tells implementers how the IVS should continue or stop sending MSD when the PSAP response is incomplete.

PSAP behavior and call-back handling

  • Clause 11.2 adds and revises PSAP cases for logging the MSD transfer type in PS domain. This matters because the PSAP must record whether the MSD came by in-band modem.
  • Clause 11.2.8 covers call-back to the vehicle after domain change to PS domain, and the updated wording allows the call-back to come from the same or a different MNO. In practice, PSAP systems must handle callback conditions without relying on one specific network path.
  • Clauses 11.2.9 to 11.2.11 cover requests for a new MSD after call clear-down and domain change. The tests allow for failure, timeout, or success depending on the exact case, so PSAP behavior is checked against real call-clear-down timing and domain changes.
  • Several PSAP-related table updates also require the tester to configure the PSAP test point to reject redial attempts or accept incoming calls in the specified cases. That means the PSAP side of the test is not passive - it actively drives the recovery scenario.

What terms does EN 18052:2025/prA1 define?

  • Conformance Test Protocols (CTP) - The step-by-step test procedures used to verify eCall behavior in a specific scenario, including initial conditions, stimulus, expected behavior, and pass conditions.
  • In-Vehicle System (IVS) - The vehicle-side eCall equipment being tested in most of the IVS clauses, including registration, call setup, fallback, and MSD handling.
  • Mobile Network Operator (MNO) - The network test point used to observe and control registration, domain changes, and call handling on the circuit switched or packet switched side.
  • Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) - The emergency call center test point that answers calls, receives MSD, sends acknowledgements, and triggers callback or retry scenarios.
  • eCall-only IVS - An IVS configuration that is limited to eCall behavior, with special test cases for registration, fallback, and retained connectivity.
  • MSD - The data carried during the eCall exchange and checked, logged, retried, or acknowledged in the test cases.
  • AL-ACK - The acknowledgement used in the eCall message exchange when the PSAP confirms the MSD handling step in the relevant test case.
  • LL-ACK - The lower-level acknowledgement used in the in-band modem test sequences when MSD transfer is continued or stopped.

Who uses EN 18052:2025/prA1?

EN 18052:2025/prA1 is used by vehicle manufacturers, eCall equipment suppliers, telecom operators, PSAP operators, and test laboratories that need to prove conformance of eCall functions in hybrid network environments. It is also useful for quality managers and buyers who need to check whether a product or service has been tested against the right eCall scenarios.

In practice, users apply it to test IVS equipment, MNO service behavior, and PSAP handling for new engineering developments, products, and systems. It is a conformance-testing document, so it is used for verification and demonstration rather than for vehicle-by-vehicle installation checks.

What changed in EN 18052:2025/prA1 from the previous edition?

EN 18052:2025/prA1 is an amendment to EN 18052:2025. The changes listed in the document update the normative references, eCall timer wording, test applicability rules, and many test cases across IVS, eCall-only IVS, and PSAP scenarios.

The amendment also revises several tables so that the test logic matches current hybrid-network behavior, including domain selection, fallback between PS and CS domains, MSD handling, callback behavior, and logging of the MSD transfer type.

Which standards are used with EN 18052:2025/prA1?

StandardWhat it contributes
ETSI TS 124 229SIP and session behavior used in the eCall test applicability and call-handling cases, including release-based applicability for eCall over 4G and 5G.
ETSI TS 123 167Session behavior used together with ETSI TS 124 229 in the updated applicability text.
EN 16454One of the sources of conformance tests that this document adapts for hybrid circuit switched/packet switched network environments.
CEN/prEN 17240Another source of conformance test protocols that are revised here for hybrid environments.
CEN/prEN 17905The compliance target that the test suite is intended to help demonstrate.
EN 17184:2024+A1:2026Referenced in a modified IVS test case for packet switched eCall behavior after fallback from PS to CS.
EN 16062:2025Referenced in a modified IVS test case for circuit switched eCall behavior after PS-domain failure.
EN 16072:2025Referenced in the same fallback test logic for CS-domain registration and eCall handling.
EN 15722Used in the PSAP in-band modem cases for MSD format checking.

What does the EN 18052:2025/prA1 document contain?

EN 18052:2025/prA1 contains clause-by-clause modifications, not a new standalone test method. The main content is replacement text for Clause 2, Clause 8.3, Clause 8.4, and many conformance test tables in Clauses 9.2, 9.3, and 11.2.

The tables give the test point sequence, tester actions, SUT behavior, pass conditions, and the conditions under which a test is not applicable. They cover domain selection, call setup, MSD transfer, redial attempts, abnormal termination, PSAP callback, and registration persistence.

Several modified tables also define timed behaviors and conditional steps, such as waiting windows for redial, registration retention after handover, and MSD transfer using in-band modem. This makes the document useful for lab testing, product verification, and conformity assessment of hybrid eCall implementations.
