Intelligent transport systems - ESafety - Pan-European eCall operating requirements

The objective of implementing the pan-European in-vehicle emergency call system (eCall) is to automate the notification of a traffic accident, wherever in Europe, with the same technical standards and the same quality of services objectives by using 'Public Land Mobile Networks'(PLMN) (such as GSM and UMTS), which supports the European pre-assigned emergency destination address (see normative references) and to provide a means of manually triggering the notification of an incident.
This European Standard specifies the general operating requirements and intrinsic procedures for in-vehicle emergency call (eCall) services in order to transfer an emergency message from a vehicle to a Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) in the event of a crash or emergency, via an eCall communication session and to establish a voice channel between the in-vehicle equipment and the PSAP.
Private third party in-vehicle emergency supporting services may also provide a similar eCall function by other means. The provision of such services are defined in EN 16102, and are outside the scope of this European Standard.
The communications protocols and methods for the transmission of the eCall message are not specified in this European Standard.
This European Standard specifies the operating requirements for an eCall service. An important part of the eCall service is a Minimum Set of Data (MSD). The operating requirements for the MSD are determined in this European Standard, but the form and data content of the MSD is not defined herein. A common European MSD is determined in EN 15722.
This European Standard does not specify whether eCall is provided using embedded equipment or other means (for example in the case of aftermarket equipment).

This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 16072:2015.
The following revisions have been introduced:
— Subclause 7.10.1 has been adapted to better cover electrical vehicles;
— Subclause 7.17.3 has been adapted to comply with regulations;
— Subclause 11.3 has been changed to avoid conflicting requirements ;

— Removed references to the type of (mobile) networks (e.g. circuit switched (GSM and UMTS) or

packet switched (aka IMS eCall) where it caused text to be less readable or duplicated;

— Added clarification or reworded text to improve readability.

Introduction

The scale of death and injury on roads in Europe needs to be fully comprehended to understand the need

for 'Emergency Call' (eCall). In 2008 there were 38 900 fatalities in EU-27. The figure for 2009 is around

34 500 fatalities. The trend 2001 to 2008 is around 5 % reduction annually. Road accident injuries are in

the region of 1,7 million (2008). Roads remain unsafe and further efforts are needed. The pan-European

in-vehicle emergency call, eCall, is estimated to have the potential to save up to 2 500 fatalities annually

in EU-28 when fully deployed and furthermore to reduce the severity of injuries, to bring significant

savings to the society in and to reduce human suffering.

Emergency calls made from vehicles or mobile telephones using wireless technologies can assist with the

objectives of significantly reducing road deaths and injuries, but drivers often have poor (imprecise)

location- awareness, especially on interurban roads or abroad. Additionally, in many situations, the car

occupants may not be in a position to call using a normal mobile phone.

The situation is worse for those travelling abroad: A high (and increasing) number of vehicles travelling

outside their home country is thus also contributing to the need for automated emergency call system in

vehicles. In EU there are over 100 million trips to another EU country per year (EU-15). 65 % people feel

less protected while abroad and most do not know which number to call in an emergency (in some

countries over 60 %). Language problems are pertinent and may render proper communication difficult.

Yet, in the most crucial cases, the victim(s) may not be able to call because they have been

injured/trapped, do not know the local number to call and in many cases, particularly in rural situations

and late at night, there may be no witnesses, who happen to have a mobile phone and a sense of

community.

eCall, in the context of 'Road Traffic and Transport Telematics' (otherwise known as 'Intelligent

Transport Systems' or 'ITS'), can be described as an 'automatic or user instigated system to provide

notification to Public Safety Answering Points (PSAP), by means of wireless communications, that a

vehicle has crashed, and to provide coordinates, a defined Minimum Set of Data, and where possible a

voice link to the PSAP'.

The objective of implementing the pan-European in-vehicle emergency call system (eCall) is to automate

the notification of a traffic accident, wherever in the European Union and associated countries, with the

same technical standards and the same quality of services objectives of other emergency (TS12) services.

Definition of the Minimum Set of Data, the communications media and means of transferring the data are

not specified in this European Standard.

This European Standard specifies the generic operational requirements for the provision of an eCall

service. The practical provision and operation of eCall service and equipment is dependent on the

communications medium being available throughout the lifetime of equipment installed in vehicles.

NOTE The term PSAP, which is most widely used in the eCall documentation, European Commission

documents etc., equates to the term emergency call response centre.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) draws attention to the fact that it is claimed that

compliance with this European Standard may involve the use of patents concerning eCall given in this

European Standard.

The patents held may refer to the implementation of eCall in general using the network access device

referenced (but not defined) in this European Standard, but do not specifically directly refer to any of the

application specification clauses defined herein.

CEN takes no position concerning the evidence, validity and scope of these patent rights.

The holder of these patent rights has ensured to CEN that he/she is willing to negotiate licenses under

reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions with applicants throughout the world. In this

1 Scope

The objective of implementing the pan-European in-vehicle emergency call system (eCall) is to automate

the notification of a traffic accident, wherever in Europe, with the same technical standards and the same

quality of services objectives by using 'Public Land Mobile Networks'(PLMN) (such as GSM and UMTS),

which supports the European pre-assigned emergency destination address (see normative references)

and to provide a means of manually triggering the notification of an incident.

This document specifies the general operating requirements and intrinsic procedures for in-vehicle

emergency call (eCall) services in order to transfer an emergency message from a vehicle to a Public

Safety Answering Point (PSAP) in the event of a crash or emergency, via an eCall communication session

and to establish a voice channel between the in-vehicle equipment and the PSAP.

Private third party in-vehicle emergency supporting services may also provide a similar eCall function by

other means. The provision of such services are defined in EN 16102, and are outside the scope of this

document.

The communications protocols and methods for the transmission of the eCall message are not specified

in this document.

This document specifies the operating requirements for an eCall service. An important part of the eCall

service is a Minimum Set of Data (MSD). The operating requirements for the MSD are determined in this

document, but the form and data content of the MSD is not defined herein. A common European MSD is

determined in EN 15722.

This document does not specify whether eCall is provided using embedded equipment or other means

(for example in the case of aftermarket equipment).
