Intelligent transport systems - eSafety - Part 5: eCall for UNECE category L1 and L3 powered two-wheel vehicles
In respect of operating requirements specified in EN 16072, this document specifies adaptations to enable the provision of eCall for powered two-wheel vehicles.
As with the existing provisions for eCall for category M1/N1 vehicles, these are specified within the paradigm of being OEM-fit equipment supplied with new vehicles.
This document includes only the requirements for category L1 and L3 P2WV (vehicle based) with the exception of L1e-A (powered cycle), although other documents can subject other ‘L’ subcategories to use this document. Other documents can be prepared for other UNECE category ‘L’ variants.
The requirements herein relate only to the provision of pan-European eCall and does not provide requirements for third party service provision of eCall. Other than in the 112-eCall using IMS over packet switched networks paradigm, which involves a direct call from the vehicle to the most appropriate PSAP, third party service provision involves the support of an intermediary third-party service provider before the call is forwarded to the PSAP.
The provision of eCall for vehicles via the aftermarket (post sales and registration), and the operational requirements for any such aftermarket solution, will be the subject of other work.
Intelligente Verkehrssysteme - eSicherheit - Teil 5: eCall für motorisierte Zweiräder der UNECE-Fahrzeugklassen L1 und L3
Im Hinblick auf Betriebsanforderungen, die in EN 16072 festgelegt wurden, legt dieses Dokument Anpassungen fest, um die Bereitstellung von eCall für motorisierte Zweiräder zu ermöglichen.
Wie bei den bereits bestehenden Festlegungen zu eCall für Fahrzeuge der Klasse M1/N1 werden diese unter dem Paradigma spezifiziert, dass es sich um vom Originalgerätehersteller in Neufahrzeuge eingebaute Ausrüstung handelt.
Dieses Dokument beinhaltet nur die Anforderungen an P2WV der Fahrzeugklassen L1 und L3 (fahrzeugbasiert) mit Ausnahme von L1e A (motorisiertes Rad). Dabei können andere Dokumente weitere Unterklassen von L verpflichten, dieses Dokuments zu verwenden. Andere Dokumente können für andere Varianten der UNECE-Klasse L vorbereitet werden.
Die hierin genannten Anforderungen beziehen sich ausschließlich auf die Bereitstellung des gesamteuropäischen eCall und liefern keine Anforderungen für eCall-Drittanbieterdienste. Anders als das 112 eCall-Paradigma unter Verwendung von IMS über paketvermittelte Netzwerke, welches einen Direktanruf vom Fahrzeug bei der zuständigen Notrufzentrale umfasst, beinhaltet die Diensterbringung durch Dritte die Unterstützung eines zwischengeschalteten externen Dienstleisters, bevor der Anruf an die Notrufzentrale weitergeleitet wird.
Die Bereitstellung von eCall für Fahrzeuge über den Nachrüstmarkt (nach Verkauf und Zulassung) und die betrieblichen Anforderungen für derartige Nachrüstlösungen werden den Gegenstand einer anderen Arbeit bilden.
Systèmes de transport intelligents - ESafety - Partie 5 : ECall pour les véhicules à deux roues motorisés des catégories UNECE L1 et L3
En ce qui concerne les exigences opérationnelles sont spécifiées dans l'EN 16072, le présent document spécifie les adaptations pour permettre la fourniture de l’eCall sur les véhicules à deux roues motorisés.
De la même manière que pour les dispositions existantes concernant le système eCall pour les véhicules des catégories M1 et N1, ces exigences sont spécifiées dans le cadre d'équipements OEM adaptés, fournis avec des véhicules neufs.
Le présent document contient uniquement les exigences applicables aux P2WV des catégories L1 et L3 (véhicules) à l'exception de la catégorie L1e-A (vélos à moteur), même si d'autres documents peuvent soumettre d'autres sous-catégories « L » au présent document. D'autres documents peuvent être rédigées pour d'autres variantes de la catégorie « L » de la CEE-ONU.
Les spécifications qu'il contient se rapportent uniquement à la fourniture du système eCall paneuropéen, à l'exclusion de toute spécification concernant la fourniture du système eCall par un fournisseur de services tiers. En dehors du paradigme d'appel eCall 112 utilisant les réseaux à commutation de paquets IMS, qui implique un appel direct entre le véhicule et le PSAP le plus approprié, la fourniture d'un service tiers implique l'intervention d'un fournisseur de services tiers intermédiaire avant la transmission de l'appel au PSAP.
La fourniture de systèmes eCall de véhicules dans le cadre d'une installation de seconde monte (après la vente et l'immatriculation) et les exigences opérationnelles de toute solution de seconde monte seront traitées dans d'autres ouvrages.
Inteligentni transportni sistemi - e-Varnost - 5. del: e-Klic za dvokolesna motorna vozila UN/ECE kategorij L1 in L3
V zvezi z zahtevami za delovanje, določenimi v standardu EN 16072, ta dokument določa prilagoditve za zagotavljanje e-Klica za dvokolesna motorna vozila. Tako kot obstoječe določbe za e-Klic za vozila kategorije M1/N1 so tudi te določbe opredeljene v okviru paradigme, da gre za originalno nameščeno opremo (OEM), ki je dobavljena z novimi vozili. Ta dokument vključuje samo zahteve za dvokolesna motorna vozila kategorij L1 in L3 P2WV (na osnovi vozila) z izjemo L1e-A (kolo z motorjem), čeprav lahko drugi dokumenti predpišejo uporabo tega dokumenta tudi za druge podkategorije »L«. Za druge različice kategorij UNECE »L« bodo morda pripravljeni drugi dokumenti. V tem dokumentu navedene zahteve se navezujejo samo na zagotavljanje vseevropskega e-Klica in ne zagotavljajo zahtev za zagotavljanje storitve e-Klic tretjega ponudnika. Razen v paradigmi e-Klica 112 z uporabo paketnega komutiranega omrežja (IMS), ki vključuje neposredni klic iz vozila do najustreznejšega centra za obveščanje (PSAP), zagotavljanje storitev tretjih ponudnikov vključuje podporo posredniškega tretjega ponudnika storitev, preden je klic posredovan centru za obveščanje. Zagotavljanje e-Klica za vozila po naknadni vgradnji (po prodaji in registraciji) in operativne zahteve za morebitne poprodajne rešitve bodo predmet drugih dokumentov.

Introduction
All new vehicle types of category M1/N1 will be equipped with 112-eCall and all new vehicle types of
category M1/N1 will support 112-eCall using IMS over packet switched networks.
NOTE See Regulation (EU) 2015/758 [3] and Delegated Regulation (EU) 2024/1180 [4], which cover M1- and
N1-category vehicles (cars and vans).
Powered two-wheel vehicle (vehicle mounted) 112-eCall systems, installed during the manufacture of
the vehicle, present challenges to the eCall paradigm in that, in case of an accident, the rider is likely to
be separated from the vehicle, usually by some distance. eCall equipment mounted on P2WVs is also
subjected to far harsher environmental exposure than its in-car counterparts, and providing equipment,
such as speakers, that will last and reliably operate for the lifetime of the vehicle, presents a significant
challenge. This document takes these issues into account as a variation of the requirements specified for
category M1 and N1 vehicles and, in particular, does not provide the requirement for two-way voice
dialogue in all models. Other features that characterize eCall are maintained as optional. An optional
additional data element (or, in the future, a specific bit in the MSD) that enables the PSAP to identify
where voice communications are possible or not, is added.
NOTE See CEN/TR 17249-1:2018.
This document specifies the additional high-level service requirements for the provision of eCall to
powered two-wheel vehicles of UNECE category L1 and L3 (vehicle mounted). As with the existing
provisions for eCall for category M1/N1 vehicles, and other requirements in this series, these are
specified within the paradigm of being OEM fit equipment supplied with new vehicles.
The provision of eCall for vehicles via the aftermarket (post sales and registration), and the operational
requirements for any such aftermarket solution for vehicle will be the subject of other work, that shall
use the requirements of this document as a principal reference point.
This document is based on and supersedes CEN/TS 17249-5:2022, following results achieved in sAFE
project (sub-activity 3.5) [6] to obtain a specification allowing a more practical implementation of eCall
for P2WVs.
1 Scope
In respect of operating requirements specified in EN 16072, this document specifies adaptations to
enable the provision of eCall for powered two-wheel vehicles.
As with the existing provisions for eCall for category M1/N1 vehicles, these are specified within the
paradigm of being OEM-fit equipment supplied with new vehicles.
This document includes only the requirements for category L1 and L3 P2WV (vehicle based) with the
exception of L1e-A (powered cycle), although other documents can subject other ‘L’ subcategories to use
this document. Other documents can be prepared for other UNECE category ‘L’ variants.
The requirements herein relate only to the provision of pan-European eCall and does not provide
requirements for third party service provision of eCall. Other than in the 112-eCall using IMS over packet
switched networks paradigm, which involves a direct call from the vehicle to the most appropriate PSAP,
third party service provision involves the support of an intermediary third-party service provider before
the call is forwarded to the PSAP.
The provision of eCall for vehicles via the aftermarket (post sales and registration), and the operational
requirements for any such aftermarket solution, will be the subject of other work.

6 Context
This document is based on the description of an eCall session as specified in EN 16072 and providing data
as determined in EN 15722 and EN 17870. This document provides requirements to extend the scope of
eCall to benefit incidents involving powered vehicles (e.g. petrol, electrical, fuel cell) hereinafter referred
to as P2WV. The document is limited to category L1 and L3 vehicles, excluding pedal powered vehicles
(category L1e-A (powered cycles)).
NOTE See UNECE/TRANS/WP.29/78/Rev.7 (2023) World Forum for Harmonization of Vehicle Regulations,
Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3) and Regulation (EU) No 168/2013 categorization
of motor vehicles.
The general context of the provision of eCall for P2WV is described in CEN/TR 17249-1:2018 [7] in its
general provisions, and particularly in its Clause 13, which is specific to P2WVs.
7 eCall requirements for P2WV
7.1 Context
Within this paradigm, the eCall equipment (the IVS) is fitted during manufacture or before the point of
first sale by or under the control of the original equipment manufacturer. eCall operating requirements
are provided in EN 16072, and the “minimum set of data” requirements are specified in EN 15722.
NOTE eCall characteristics and provisions are defined in several EU Regulations, notably Regulation (EU)
2015/758 [3] concerning type-approval requirements for the deployment of the eCall in-vehicle system based on
the 112 service and Delegated Regulation (EU) 2024/1180 [4].
7.2 Activation of an eCall
7.2.1 Automatic eCall
7.2.1.1 General
The eCall IVS for P2WVs shall support automatically initiated eCall as specified in EN 16072, which means
that the IVS shall automatically activate an eCall in case of a severe incident. In addition to the core eCall
standards, specific requirements need to be met for P2WVs.
7.2.1.2 Determining incident severity
The vehicle incident evaluation and triggering algorithms for eCall initiation, is to be designed to
minimize unnecessary deployments and false calls, and to adapt to triggering conditions. Algorithms
often consider such parameters as, for example: vehicle acceleration/deceleration (angular
accelerometers), wheel speed, attitude (gyroscopes), weight and/or presence of rider and pillion
passenger, brake pressure and omni-directional impacts.
For P2WV it is essential that the eCall automatic triggering criteria shall differentiate between three
incident levels: minor, possibly severe and major. To determine the incident level, parameters which have
high correlation with injury severity such as the vehicle speed shall be used. Figure 1 depicts the example
of incident scenario interpretation for the automatic eCall activation based on the vehicle speed and
vehicle acceleration (or delta-speed), result of studies done in sAFE project [6].
Figure 1 — Incident scenario interpretation for the automatic P2WV eCall activation
An incident is classified as minor if triggering variables are below the low severity threshold as shown
in Figure 1 (e.g. P2WV with engine running knocked off stand). A (combination of) high severity
threshold(s) is used to determine if an incident should be classified as major, which indicates a more
serious accident with potentially high injury severity. An incident that is neither minor nor major
classifies as possibly severe.
NOTE Neither the criteria to determine whether the incident is minor (below low severity threshold), nor what
constitutes “crash characteristics such that it is likely that the riders are injured” (above high severity threshold)
are part of this specification. Those will be at the determination of the manufacturer of the vehicle.
The requirements specified in this cl
