Introduction The Basic Transport Protocol (BTP) provides an end-to-end, connection-less transport service in the ITS ad hoc network. Its main purpose is the multiplexing of messages from different processes at the ITS facilities layer, e.g. CAM and DENM from the cooperative awareness basic service and the distributed environmental notification basic service, for the transmission of packets via the GeoNetworking protocol as well as the de-multiplexing at the destination. BTP enables protocol entities at the ITS facilities layer to access services of the GeoNetworking protocol and to pass protocol control information between the ITS facilities layer and the GeoNetworking protocol. SIST EN 302 636-5-1 V1.2.1:2014



ETSI ETSI EN 302 636-5-1 V1.2.1 (2014-08)5 Message multiplexing/demultiplexing is based on ports, an ITS station-internal 16 bit address. A port represents a communication endpoint that identifies the ITS station protocol entity at the source (source port) or the destination (destination port). The usage of ports is similar to the two-stage packet transport in the IP protocol suite, where the IP provides the routing of packets from source to destination and the transport protocol, such as UDP, multiplexes/demultiplexes messages from/to application processes. In the case of BTP, the GeoNetworking protocol transports the packets among the ITS stations and the BTP protocol delivers the packets to the entities at the ITS facilities layer. BTP also adopts the concept of "well-known ports" from the IP protocol suite that assigns fixed ports to specific ITS facilities layer protocols. The definition of the ports, however, is beyond the scope of the present document. BTP is a lightweight protocol: It has a 4-byte protocol header and requires minimal processing. It provides an unreliable transport of packets, i.e. packets can arrive out-of-order, appear duplicated or can be lost. The design of BTP assumes that entities using the protocol are either tolerant against the unreliable packet transport or provide appropriate mechanisms for reliable communication in their protocols.

The Basic Transport Protocol (BTP) provides an end-to-end, connection-less transport service in the ITS ad hoc
network (ETSI TS 102 636-3 [4]). Similar to UDP (RFC 768 [i.6]), it offers a minimal transport service, i.e. the
non-guaranteed delivery of BTP-PDUs among BTP entities. It also allows protocol entities at the ITS facilities layer to
directly access the services provided by the GeoNetworking protocol.

Introduction
The Basic Transport Protocol (BTP) provides an end-to-end, connection-less transport service in the ITS ad hoc
network. Its main purpose is the multiplexing of messages from different processes at the ITS facilities layer, e.g. CAM
and DENM from the cooperative awareness basic service and the distributed environmental notification basic service,
for the transmission of packets via the GeoNetworking protocol as well as the de-multiplexing at the destination. BTP
enables protocol entities at the ITS facilities layer to access services of the GeoNetworking protocol and to pass
protocol control information between the ITS facilities layer and the GeoNetworking protocol.
Message multiplexing/demultiplexing is based on ports, an ITS station-internal 16 bit address. A port represents a
communication endpoint that identifies the ITS station protocol entity at the source (source port) or the destination
(destination port). The usage of ports is similar to the two-stage packet transport in the IP protocol suite, where the IP
provides the routing of packets from source to destination and the transport protocol, such as UDP,
multiplexes/demultiplexes messages from/to application processes. In the case of BTP, the GeoNetworking protocol
transports the packets among the ITS stations and the BTP protocol delivers the packets to the entities at the ITS
facilities layer. BTP also adopts the concept of "well-known ports" from the IP protocol suite that assigns fixed ports to
specific ITS facilities layer protocols. The definition of the ports, however, is beyond the scope of the present
document.
BTP is a lightweight protocol: It has a 4-byte protocol header and requires minimal processing. It provides an unreliable
transport of packets, i.e. packets can arrive out-of-order, appear duplicated or can be lost. The design of BTP assumes
that entities using the protocol are either tolerant against the unreliable packet transport or provide appropriate
mechanisms for reliable communication in their protocols.

1 Scope
The present document specifies the Basic Transport Protocol (BTP) for the transport of packets among ITS stations. It
resides on top of the GeoNetworking protocol specified in ETSI EN 302 636-4-1 [5] and ETSI TS 102 636-4-2 [i.2] and
below the ITS-S facilities layer. It provides an end-to-end, connection-less and unreliable transport service.
