Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 14815 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee
CEN/TC 278, Road transport and traffic telematics, in collaboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 204,
Intelligent transport systems, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and
CEN (Vienna Agreement).

ISO 14815:2005(E)
Introduction
System specification
This International Standard is designed to enable users and suppliers of AVI/AEI systems to specify system
specification that will enable a nominal interoperability based on a DSRC link.
The terms “AVI” and “AEI” are used both to describe “independently functioning AVI/AEI systems” and as “the
function of identification within other RTTT/TICS systems”. This International Standard supports both such
uses where no other application or sector standard applies.
Whilst it may be desirable to determine a single set of requirements for operation in all environments and
under all operating conditions, this could impose unacceptable costs.
This International Standard therefore provides standard “classes” for different aspects of system specification,
such that a system specifier may select the appropriate performance parameters to meet a particular
requirement. Supporting informative annexes also provide a number of general use “categories” which may be
used to specify the environmental and operating parameters to support interoperable applications.
The architecture descriptions provided in this International Standard are in compliance with the guidelines
provided by CEN/TC 278 WG13 ISO/TC 204 WG1.
For the data structure elements, Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) Packed Encoding Rules (PER)
(ISO 8825-2) are used. This usage provides maximum interoperability and conformance to existing standards.
For detailed information on the use of ASN.1 PER for AVI/AEI applications, reference is made to ISO 14816.
This International Standard provides classification procedures and details test requirements needed to support
system definition. These requirements are, wherever possible, determined by reference to existing standards
and established practices.
Test requirements
Test requirements are determined for AVI/AEI system components. The requirements to meet this
International Standard encompass general performance measurement, operational, and environmental
aspects.
How to use this International Standard
It is also an objective to provide users with different applications and in different environmental circumstances
a useful tool that is flexible enough to serve the various different needs. The categorization and classification
system in this International Standard provides for this.
A brief guide showing how to use this International Standard is provided at the end of Annex A.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 14815:2005(E)
Road transport and traffic telematics — Automatic vehicle and
equipment identification — System specifications
1 Scope
This International Standard defines a generic AVI/AEI System specification for nominal AVI/AEI to provide an
enabling International Standard, which, whilst allowing the system specifier to determine the performance
levels and operating conditions, provides a framework for nominal interoperability.
Within the road context of the Transport and Traffic Telematics Sector, AVI and AEI systems have the specific
objective of achieving a unique or unambiguous positive identification of a vehicle or item of equipment, and to
make that identification automatically.
Whilst AVI may also be seen as an essential component of some applications, the particular needs of such
systems are outside the scope of this International Standard. As far as is possible, care is still taken to provide
a useful tool for such applications.
This International Standard only refers to AVI/AEI in the road environment. Multimodal and intermodal
exchanges of AVI/AEI are outside the scope of this International Standard.
Where AVI/AEI applications are part of a larger system, and where no standardized application-specific test
requirements exist, these test requirements apply.
Anonymity and privacy issues are discussed in ISO 14816, and are not handled in this International Standard.
This International Standard is designed for system specification that will enable a nominal interoperability
based on a DSRC link. AVI/AEI systems that are relying on other link types are outside the scope of this
International Standard for those parameters where the link type influences parameters.
The scope of this International Standard is confined to generic AVI/AEI system specification for systems that
have the following “core” components:
A means of communication between the vehicle/equipment and the reading station (e.g. a DSRC link);
operation within a reference architecture which enables compatible systems to read and interpret the
identification (See ISO TR 14814);
compliance to commonly understood data structures that enable meaningful interpretation of the data
exchanged in the identification sequence (See ISO 14816);
the provision of operating and environmental parameters (or classes of operating parameters) within
which such systems must successfully function without impairing interoperability. This is to ensure that
the system specifier can state his requirements clearly to Implementation Designers and Integrators, and
measure the performance of such systems (covered in this International Standard).

6 Requirements
6.1 Generic system specification for AVI/AEI systems
This clause summarizes the generic system specification for AVI/AEI systems in terms of functions supported,
data exchanges, categorization and classification. The requirements defined in this clause:
provide operation within the reference architecture defined in ISO/TR 14814,
allocate application data in accordance with ENV ISO 14816, and
enable nominal interoperability.
To obtain interoperability, it is a requirement that nominal AVI/AEI system FE shall have the capability to
operate with nominal AVI/AEI system OBE, albeit of different capability using an air interface as referenced
in 6.5.
However, the environmental and operating conditions within which such equipment has to function may be
different according to geographical location, traffic operating conditions, etc. This International Standard
provides environmental/operational classes grouped into categories to enable the marketplace to decide the
most appropriate FE for individual fixed locations. This is with the knowledge that, within the
operating/environmental constraints selected, any properly configured standard compliant AVI/AEI system
OBE shall have the capability to be identified by all standard compliant AVI/AEI system FE.
To obtain nominal AVI/AEI system interoperability, it is a requirement that OBEs shall have the capability to
operate with nominal AVI/AEI system FE.
However, the environmental and operating conditions within which on-board equipment has to function may
be different according to geographical location, vehicle or equipment type, OBE location, etc. This
International Standard provides options and environmental/operational classes to enable the marketplace to
select the most appropriate OBE equipment, with the knowledge that, within the operating/environmental
constraints selected, any properly configured standard compliant AVI/AEI system FE shall have the capability
to identify all standard compliant AVI/AEI OBEs passing within its compass.
These generic system specifications provide a migration path to later generations of equipment and to
equipment of greater capability.
In order to enable an AVI/AEI system to operate across wide areas, it is necessary for the system to use the
standardized interfaces architecture and data structures normalized in this family of AVI/AEI European
Standards. As particular system specifications will vary, well-declared and flexible structures are used. It is
important, for example, that AVI/AEI system FE facilities can effectively operate different variants of OBE. The
system specification defined in this International Standard supports the numbering schemes and data
structuring defined in ISO 14816.
ISO 14815:2005(E)
6.2 System specification: architecture
It is the Vision of the AVI/AEI system specification International Standard to:
“provide a method (trans-national and interoperable) of automatically identifying a vehicle or item of equipment
using a standard DSRC link.”
Other subsequent standards may determine requirements for AVI/AEI systems working at other air interfaces.
It is the Mission of the AVI/AEI system specification International Standard to:
“Define the functionality, environmental and operating parameters (system specification for AVI/AEI) such that
they may achieve the objectives of the Vision Statement in an Open Systems Environment, enabling
interoperability, whilst retaining the ability for different equipment to coexist.”
According to the operational situation, AVI/AEI systems may be viewed either as a service to support an
application (such as the vehicle identification component in a public transport system or freight management
system), or as an application in itself (for example, the identification of a “probe” vehicle in a traffic
management situation or in an enforcement situation). As such, the AVI/AEI system function may be achieved
using purpose-specific dedicated equipment (such as an AVI/AEI system transponder), or may be achieved
using equipment installed for the application that it supports, or indeed, using existing equipment installed for
another application (such as a freight logistics system utilizing AVI techniques). Such multi-application support
and interoperability will be particularly common in respect of the OBE, although it will also be required in
respect of the FE.
6.2.1 Conceptual architecture
See ISO/TR 14814.
6.2.2 Logical architecture
See ISO/TR 14814.
6.2.3 Functional architecture
See ISO/TR 14814.
6.2.4 Control architecture
See ISO/TR 14814.
6.2.5 Identification principles
This International Standard adheres to the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) philosophy, i.e. the definition
is concerned with the exchange of information between systems and not the internal functioning of each
individual system component.
In order to cooperate, entities in any OSI layer, other than the lowest layer, communicate by means of the set
of services provided by the next lower OSI layer.
This International Standard references the series of International Standards developed by CEN/TC 278/WG9.
The work of ISO/TC 204, especially WG1/SG3, is taken into account as far as possible, as are other existing
relevant definitions of data elements [such as the “Data elements to be used in surface transport applications
of machine readable cards” (CEN/TC 224/WG11)].
6 © ISO 2005 – All rights reserved
ISO 14815:2005(E)
Where the RTTT/TICS system service has to support devices in an interoperable environment, it is essential
that the devices be capable of “upwards migration”, either to accommodate different types of devices in the
emerging specifications, or as new generations of systems are developed.
6.2.6 Information architecture
See ISO/TR 14814 and ISO 14816.
6.2.7 Physical (application) architecture
This clause describes the physical configuration and physical interconnection of equipment to achieve its
function (not the equipment itself).
The physical architecture shall be as defined in 4.5 of ISO/TR 14814.
The following clauses provide a summary of the application architecture.
In the majority of situations, the objective of the AVI/AEI system function is to uniquely identify vehicles or
equipment. In some circumstances, the position may be reversed and it may be for a moving vehicle or
equipment to identify a static or moving object (such as a location identifier, or another moving vehicle or
equipment).
In some cases, it is necessary to protect the identity of a vehicle or equipment for reasons of privacy or
security. In these cases, the AVI/AEI system shall provide an alias or temporary unambiguous identification
that does not necessarily provide the permanent identification of the vehicle or equipment. (It may, for
example, identify a smart card temporarily located in an on-board unit.) Such identifications are supported
within this International Standard.
Figure 1 — Example of physical architecture model
ISO 14815:2005(E)
The example in Figure 1 shows one central FE system with a number of local FE systems. Each local system
may have one or multiple FE connections. The example also shows OBE of two different types, without
indication of the exact number of each.
The AVI/AEI system may be a stand-alone function using dedicated equipment, or may be an application
service within a more complex service (such as fee collection, route guidance, fleet management, etc.)
achieved using the equipment provided for that service. The FE used may provide the functions of more than
one service, or indeed the function may be performed by a combination of equipment (such as an interrogator
plus an antenna).
The general application configuration shall be comprised of FE and OBE (OBE), making use of the DSRC to
communicate.
The FE shall utilize an antenna targeted on the identification zone. The FE shall normally, but not necessarily,
be connected to either a local and/or a central computer system.
The OBE shall utilize an antenna located such that it will pass through the identification zone.
As the OBE passes through the Identification Zone, communication shall be effected using a DSRC link
(see 5.5). All AVI/AEI system application-specific data shall be comprised of one or more numbering
scheme(s) determined in ISO 14816, or a “private” class data construct supported within that International
Standard.
The AVI/AEI system identification component specified within this International Standard may be described as
a “bi-directional monologue” — bi-directional in that there shall be a communication phase where contact is
established with the OBE and the OBE responds, a monologue in that the AVE/AEI identification is a data
structure (or group of data structures) sent from the OBE to the FE.
Additional bi-directional data exchanges are permissible (and indeed are essential to support many application
services) but are outside the domain of this International Standard. Other standards for the sector shall
prescribe the form of these data exchanges.
An AVI/AEI system identification, or AVI/AEI system component of a more complex RTTT/TICS identification,
shall only be regarded as a standard-compliant identification if it complies with the system specification
determined in this International Standard. In order to ensure interoperability within the sector, no form of
AVI/AEI system, other than that determined in this International Standard (and in the related International
Standards ISO/TR 14814 and ISO 14816), may claim to be compliant with CEN TC 278 RTTT standards for
AVI/AEI systems or ISO/TC 204 TICS International Standards for AVI/AEI systems.
6.2.8 Deployment (implementation) design
The deployment architecture for AVI/AEI systems is not considered appropriate for standardization.
6.3 Specific system specification for stand-alone AVI/AEI systems
This clause defines the specific data exchange operation to achieve the AVI/AEI transaction.
The AVI/AEI transaction is an essentially simple bi-directional monologue transaction in which the FE requests
the data from the OBE and the OBE provides its data.
The data shall comprise one or more standardized data constructs as defined in ISO 14816.
The transaction shall conform to any relevant CEN or ISO system specification standard for AVI/AEI. The
clause below defines the description method used in describing the specific system specification for an
AVI/AEI transaction.

ISO 14815:2005(E)
6.3.1 GET function
The principal function to support access to the AVI/AEI data structures (defined in ISO 14816) is:
GET
NOTE This is the only standardized function required to perform AVI/AEI.
GET is an AVI/AEI system function used to initiate a read operation of AVI/AEI system information, i.e.
AVI/AEI system application data.
Usage: GET (〈ASN.1DataStructureIdentifier〉, Data)
6.3.2 Further (optional) functions
Some AVI/AEI systems may additionally provide further functions. The following functions are not mandatory,
but if present shall conform to the following general form and to the definition as specified in any CEN/ISO
AVI/AEI standard. This function requires a full bi-directional link.
6.3.2.1 SET
SET is an AVI/AEI system function used to put data into the memory of on-board equipment (OBE).
Usage: SET(〈ASN.1 DataStructureIdentifier〉.[DataElementIdentifier], data to be written,[〈location〉]).
6.4 Specific system specification for the AVI/AEI system function incorporated into other
systems
The AVI/AEI system may be used as an identification element within another application (e.g. fleet
management, parking management, etc.).
Where an application requires simply an AVI/AEI system identification transaction, it shall use the method
defined in 6.3. above. In cases where there is an application-defined transaction using a standardized DSRC
interface, this International Standard does not apply.
6.5 Air interface aspects
This International Standard assumes the provision of adequate DSRC interface European Standards provided
by ETSI (EN 300 674) and CEN (EN 12253, 12795, 12834). The provisions and determinations specified
within this International Standard assume a DSRC link at 5,795-5,805 GHz as recommended by
CEPT/ERC 22/04 or other frequencies as may be specified in such ETSI and CEN Standards.
NOTE 1 Whilst many of the system specifications determined in this International Standard may be applicable
regardless of the frequency, it will be necessary to reconsider each of the provisions of this International Standard in
situations where new frequency ranges are to be used. Where appropriate, new standards may need to be developed for
specific frequency ranges.
NOTE 2 For ISO parallel voting, the relevant ITU reference will replace or be added to this clause as soon as available.
6.6 Operating parameters
6.6.1 AVI/AEI system operating parameters
In order to claim compliance, a declaration for all tables and table combinations shall be made. Omission of
declaration of any one table or any table combination in this section shall constitute non-conformance to the
International Standard.
Where speed is claimed, the maximum number of transponders in zone shall be declared; where life of
transponders is claimed, the number of reads per period shall be declared.
ISO 14815:2005(E)
6.6.1.1 Reliability, availability, lifetime and maintainability
The operational requirements for reliability, availability, lifetime and maintainability on the AVI/AEI system level
are formulated qualitatively, not quantitatively.
6.6.1.1.1 Reliability
This clause relates to the reliability requirements between reference points alpha and delta determined in
ISO/TR 14814.
In order to be considered reliable, a compliant AVI/AEI system shall deliver a declared maximum of
undetected erroneous identification results under nominal operational conditions at reference point beta.
6.6.1.1.2 Maintainability
The FE shall be designed to facilitate maintenance.
The OBE (excluding exchangeable batteries or external power source) shall not require maintenance.
6.6.1.1.3 Minimum number of identifications per year for the OBE
Table 1 — Identification per year for OBE
Class Identifications per year
A1 20 000
A2 10 000
A3 4 000
A4 2 000
Where an internal battery is used in the OBE, Class A is to be considered in conjunction with Class B below.
In order to claim compliance with a particular “Class A” classification, the OBE shall also meet the claimed
OBE lifetime classification.
6.6.1.1.4 Lifetime of OBE
The minimum lifetime of the OBE shall be as determined in Table 2.

6.6.1.1.5 Distance between FE and OBE antennas
Table 4 — Distance between FE and OBE antennas
Class Reading distance test points
C1 20 m
C2 10 m
C3 6 m
C4 3 m
C5 1 m
C6 0,5 m
To achieve Class C1, it shall read at all test point, Class C2, all test points up to 10 m, etc.
Where ETSI Standard I-ETS 300 674 applies, distance shall be measured according to power levels as
defined by ETSI Standard I-ETS 300 674. The power class, where applicable, shall be documented
(e.g. Class C1/1, Class C1/2, etc). Applicable ETSI power classes shall not be exceeded.
6.6.1.2 OBE Installation
The technology adopted for an AVI/AEI system shall not preclude OBEs that can be installed by the user
without any aid from any expert.
Installation is to be effected according to an approved, documented procedure provided by the manufacturer.
When being fitted to a vehicle, the equipment and the whole installation must comply with the provisions relating
to maximum tolerances laid down by the manufacturer's specifications.
The equipment shall be immune to damage caused by the normal handling, connection and disconnection
that are necessary for installation and maintenance activities.
This shall not preclude OBEs which are specifically designed to cease functioning upon removal or tampering.
ISO 14815:2005(E)
6.6.1.3 Electromagnetic disturbance
The AVI/AEI system shall be able to perform identifications in an environment with electromagnetic
disturbance in accordance with IEC 801 and EN 50081. For the radio link, part I, ETS 300 674 applies.
6.6.1.4 Emissions
The electric or magnetic fields produced by the AVI/AEI system shall not exceed the levels as specified in
IEC 215 (EN 60215). This clause applies to both FE and OBE. For the radio link, part I, ETS 300 674 applies.
EXAMPLE IEC 215 (EN 60215) requires that the transmitted electric and magnetic fields shall not exceed 200 V/m
or 0,5 A/m, respectively over the frequency range 30 MHz to 30 GHz. This approximately corresponds to a radiation power
2 2
density of 100 W/m (10 mW/cm ) and applies to distance greater than 5 cm from accessible surfaces of the equipment.
NOTE For the ISO parallel voting, the relevant ITU reference will replace or be added to this clause as soon as
available.
6.6.2 AVI/AEI system-specific operating parameters
Due to the variations in size and loading configurations of items of equipment that may be encountered in an
RTTT/TICS environment, references to distance detailed in this clause refer to distances between the OBE
antennas.
The system must be able to operate within the limits as specified in the following tables.
Table 5 — Maximum number of OBE antennas per cubic metre
Class OBEs per m
D1 0,1
D2 1
D3 10
D4 25
D5 50
D6 100 and above
NOTE Depending on the technical solution, there may be a requirement to specify the maximum number of OBEs in
the read zone as a factor of passing speed.
Table 6 — Minimum distance between OBE antennas
Class Clearance between OBEs
E1 1 cm
E2 5 cm
E3 10 cm
E4 25 cm and above
NOTE This will normally reference distance between monolithic OBEs when mounted according to manufacturer's
specification.
