Intelligent transport systems - After-theft systems for the recovery of stolen vehicles - Part 1: Reference architecture and terminology

For many years, consumers, law enforcement agencies and insurers have been confronted with an ever-increasing number of vehicle thefts, both genuine thefts and insurance frauds, as well as the growing problem of increasing violence and threats against vehicle drivers.
Manufacturers have and will continue to introduce after-theft systems that will enable the police to recover stolen vehicles. Different techniques are being used for that purpose. This document refers to them by the generic name of After Theft Systems for Vehicle Recovery (ATSVR).
Standards for Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) and Automatic Equipment Identification (AEI) are being developed by CEN/TC 278/WG 12 in parallel with EN ISO 14814. This ATSVR standard does not prejudice that work and does not seek to establish parameters for future AVI/AEI standards. DSRC and AVI standards are seen as basic technology blocks for types of short-range ATSVR systems.
Certain specialised terms and definitions have been used in writing the ATSVR standards. This preliminary document aims to provide the preliminary framework of ATSVR concepts and definitions for the purpose of following ones. It will therefore:
-   define the concepts and global architecture models for ATSVR and the appropriate terminology;
-   identify the various elements that may comprise an ATSVR.
The events and associated information that are relevant to the situation prior to the registration of the theft are relevant to the total process, but may be subject to the laws of individual countries. Such events and associated information may be described in the standards to give clarity to the technical processes identified, which obviously does not presume on the prevailing legal conditions.

Intelligente Transportsysteme - Systeme für das Wiederfinden gestohlener Fahrzeuge - Teil 1: Referenzarchitektur und Begriffe

Seit vielen Jahren sehen sich Konsumenten, Strafverfolgungsbehörden und Versicherer dem Problem zunehmender Gewalt und Bedrohung gegenüber Autofahrern als auch einer ständig steigenden Zahl von Autodiebstählen, die sowohl tatsächliche Diebstähle als auch Versicherungs¬betrug umfassen, gegenüber.
Hersteller haben Anti-Diebstahlsysteme, die der Polizei ein Wiederfinden der gestohlenen Fahrzeuge ermöglichen, in die Autos eingebaut und werden dies auch weiterhin tun. Zu diesem Zweck werden unterschiedlichen Verfahren genutzt. Diese Norm bezieht sich auf diese Systeme mittels des Begriffs des „Systems für das Wiederfinden gestohlener Fahrzeuge (ATSVR)“.
Normen zur automatischen Identifikation und Ausrüstung von Fahrzeugen wurden durch CEN/TC 278/WG parallel zu EN ISO 14814 entwickelt. Diese ATSVR-Norm beeinträchtigt diese Arbeiten nicht und versucht nicht, Parameter für zukünftige Normen zur automatischen Identifikation festzulegen. Mikrowellentechnologie (DSRC) und automatische Identifikation von Fahrzeugen werden als grundlegende Technologiebestandteile für bestimmte Typen von Nahbereichs-ATSVR angesehen.
Bei der Erstellung der ATSVR-Normen wurden bestimmte Begriffe verwendet. Dieses vorbereitende Dokument beabsichtigt, zum Nutzen nachfolgender Dokumente den vorbereitenden Rahmen aus ATSVR-Begriffen und Definitionen bereitzustellen. Es wird daher:
   Begriffe und umfassende Architekturmodelle für ATSVRs sowie die zugehörige Terminologie festlegen;
   die verschiedenen Bestandteile, aus denen ein ATSVR zusammengesetzt sein kann, ermitteln.
Ereignisse und damit verbundene Informationen, die für die Situation relevant sind, die der Anzeige des Diebstahls vorausgehen, sind relevant für den gesamten Vorgang, können jedoch den Gesetzen einzelner Länder unterliegen. Solche Ereignisse und die damit verbundenen Informationen dürfen in den Normen beschrieben werden, um die ermittelten technischen Abläufe zu verdeutlichen und stellen zu keiner Zeit Vermutungen zu den rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen dar.

Systèmes de transport intelligents - Systèmes intervenant après un vol pour la récupération des véhicules - Partie 1 : Architecture de référence et terminologie

Depuis plusieurs années, les consommateurs, les organismes d’application de la loi et les assureurs sont confrontés à un nombre sans cesse croissant de vols de véhicules, des vols réels et des fraudes à l’assurance, ainsi qu’au problème d’augmentation de la violence et des menaces à l’encontre des conducteurs de véhicules.
Les constructeurs doivent et continuent de développer des systèmes intervenant après un vol permettant à la police de retrouver les véhicules volés. Différentes techniques sont utilisées à cet effet. Le présent document fait référence à ces dernières par le nom générique de Systèmes intervenant après un vol pour la récupération des véhicules (ATSVR).
Les normes relatives à l'Identification automatique des véhicules/équipements (AVI/AEI, Automatic Vehicle Identification/Automatic Equipment Identification) sont en cours d’élaboration par le groupe de travail 12 du comité technique CEN/TC 278 en parallèle avec l’EN ISO 14814. La présente norme ATVSR ne compromet pas ce travail et ne cherche pas à établir des paramètres pour les futures normes AVI/AEI. Les normes DSRC et AVI sont considérées comme des blocs de technologie de base pour des types de systèmes ATSVR à courte portée.
Certains termes et définitions spécialisés ont été utilisés pour la rédaction des normes ATSVR. Ce premier document a pour objet de fournir le cadre de base des concepts et définitions ATSVR, et ce pour les besoins des documents qui suivront. Par conséquent,  le présent document
-   définit les concepts et les modèles d’architecture globale pour l’ATSVR et la terminologie appropriée ;
-   identifie les divers éléments que peut comporter un ATSVR ;
Les événements et informations associés qui correspondent à la situation préalable à l’enregistrement du vol sont pertinents pour l’ensemble du processus, mais peuvent être soumis aux lois de chaque pays. Ces événements et informations associés peuvent être décrits dans les normes pour clarifier les processus techniques identifiés, ce qui évidemment ne présume pas des conditions légales en vigueur.

Inteligentni transportni sistemi - Sistemi za odkrivanje ukradenih vozil - 1. del: Referenčna arhitektura in terminologija

Že več let se potrošniki, organi pregona in zavarovalnice soočajo s povečanim številom ukradenih vozil, ki sodijo med prave kraje in med zavarovalniške goljufije, ter vedno večjim problemom povečanega nasilja nad vozniki in groženj voznikom. Proizvajalci razvijajo in bodo tudi v prihodnje razvijali sisteme, ki bodo policiji omogočili odkrivanje ukradenih vozil. V ta namen se uporabljajo različne metode. Ta dokument zanje uporablja splošno ime Sistemi za odkrivanje ukradenih vozil (ATSVR). Standarde za samodejno identifikacijo vozila (AVI) in samodejno identifikacijo opreme (AEI) pripravlja odbor CEN/TC 278/WG 12 v skladu z EN ISO 14814. Ta standard ATSVR ne vpliva na delo odbora in njegov namen ni določitev parametrov za prihodnje standarde AVI/AEI. Standardi DSRC in AVI se obravnavajo kot tehnološka osnova za vrste sistemov ATSVR kratkega dosega. Pri oblikovanju standardov ATSVR so bili uporabljeni nekateri specializirani izrazi in definicije. Namen tega predhodnega dokumenta je zagotoviti predhodni okvir pojmov in definicij ATSVR, ki bi se jih lahko upoštevalo. Zato bo: - določil pojme in splošne arhitekturne modele za ATSVR ter ustrezno terminologijo; - opredelil različne elemente, ki lahko sestavljajo ATSVR. Dogodki in z njimi povezane informacije v zvezi s situacijo pred prijavo kraje so pomembni za celoten postopek, vendar so morda odvisni od zakonodaje posamezne države. Taki dogodki in z njimi povezane informacije so lahko opisani v standardih, da se zagotovi jasnost opredeljenih tehničnih postopkov, vendar pa ne presegajo prevladujočih pravnih pogojev.

Overview

EN 15213-1:2013 - issued by CEN - is Part 1 of the European standard series for Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) that address After-Theft Systems for Vehicle Recovery (ATSVR). This part defines a reference architecture and standardized terminology for systems, equipment and actors involved in detecting, locating and identifying stolen vehicles. It establishes a conceptual framework to promote interoperability between System Operating Centres (SOC), Law Enforcement Agencies (LEA) and ATSVR service providers while recognising national legal constraints on pre‑theft information.

Key topics

• Scope and objective: Provides a common vocabulary and global architecture models for ATSVR without prescribing implementation parameters.
• Core ATSVR functions: Defines the three basic technical functions - detection, location and identification - and clarifies methods such as detection by signalling or by consulting (interrogation).
• Location methods: Describes location approaches including geographic coordinates, homing (relative positioning) and tracking (periodic updates).
• System elements & roles:
  • On-Board Equipment (OBE) - vehicle-fitted devices used to signal or respond when a vehicle is registered as stolen.
  • Detection Equipment (DE) - stationary, mobile or portable devices that detect or interrogate OBEs.
  • System Operating Centre (SOC) - control/management centres (commercial or public) that coordinate recovery operations.
  • ATSVR users - LEAs, insurers, manufacturers, service providers and vehicle operators.
• Human factors & HMI: Identifies required human interactions and human–machine interfaces - recovery cannot be fully automatic.
• Interoperability considerations: Encourages use of DSRC, AVI/AEI building blocks while not precluding parallel standards work (e.g., EN ISO 14814).

Applications

• Vehicle manufacturers use EN 15213-1:2013 to align on terminology and architecture when integrating recovery modules into vehicles.
• System integrators & ATSVR service providers adopt the reference model to design SOCs, message flows and detection networks for cross‑border cooperation.
• Law enforcement and fleet operators leverage the standard to define operational procedures, interface expectations and information exchanges during recovery operations.
• Insurers and rental agencies use the standard to evaluate service capabilities and ensure consistent status reporting of registered stolen vehicles.

Related standards

• EN 15213 series: Parts 2 (status messages), 3 (short‑range interface/system requirements), 4 (long‑range requirements), 5 (messaging interface) and CEN/TS 15213‑6 (test procedures).
• DSRC, AVI and AEI technical work (CEN/TC 278/WG 12) and EN ISO 14814 (related vehicle identification standards).

EN 15213-1:2013 is a foundational document for anyone designing, deploying or operating ITS-based after‑theft vehicle recovery systems, providing consistent definitions and an architecture to support interoperable, law‑enforcement-ready solutions.

This will provide minimum standards of information and assurance to users as to the functionality of systems, thereby enabling the recovery of vehicles, detection of offenders and a reduction in crime. This European Standard refers to the potential development of systems to enable law enforcement agencies to remotely slow and/or stop the engines of stolen vehicles. This situation remains and further information is available in 2012 CEN publication N2643 Feasibility Report on Remote Slow and Stop Technology, available from CEN/TC 278.
