Foreword
This Technical Specification (TS) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Intelligent Transport System (ITS).
The present document is part 1 of a multi-part deliverable covering the test specifications for the channel congestion
control algorithms operating in the 5,9 GHz range as identified below:
Part 1: "Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS)";
Part 2: "Test Suite Structure (TSS) and Test Purposes (TP)";
Part 3: "Abstract Test Suite (ATS) and partial Protocol Implementation eXtra Information for Testing (PIXIT)
proforma specification".
Introduction
To evaluate protocol conformance of a particular implementation, it is necessary to have a statement of which
capabilities and options have been implemented for a telecommunication specification. Such a statement is called a
Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS).
ETSI

1 Scope
The present document provides the Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS) proforma for the test
specifications for the channel congestion control algorithms operating in the 5,9 GHz range as specified in
TS 102 687 [1] and TS 102 724 [2] and in compliance with the relevant requirements and in accordance with the
relevant guidance given in ISO/IEC 9646-7 [4] and ETS 300 406 [5].
The supplier of a protocol implementation which is claimed to conform to TS 102 687 [1] and TS 102 724 [2] is
required to complete a copy of the PICS proforma provided in annex A of the present document and is required to
provide the information necessary to identify both the supplier and the implementation.
In the present document only the ITS-G5A and ITS-G5B channels are covered.
2 References
References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or

reference document (including any amendments) applies.

3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in TS 102 687 [1], TS 102 724 [2] and the
following apply:
PICS proforma: document, in the form of a questionnaire, designed by the protocol specifier or conformance test suite
specifier, which, when completed for an OSI implementation or system, becomes the PICS
NOTE: See ISO/IEC 9646-1 [3].
Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS): statement made by the supplier of an Open Systems
Interconnection (OSI) implementation or system, stating which capabilities have been implemented for a given OSI
protocol
NOTE: See ISO/IEC 9646-1 [3].
static conformance review: review of the extent to which the static conformance requirements are met by the IUT,
accomplished by comparing the PICS with the static conformance requirements expressed in the relevant standard(s)
NOTE: See ISO/IEC 9646-1 [3].
3.2 Abbreviations
For the purposes of the present document, the abbreviations given in TS 102 687 [1], TS 102 724 [2] and the following

4 Conformance
A PICS proforma which conforms to this PICS proforma specification shall be technically equivalent to annex A, and
shall preserve the numbering and ordering of the items in annex A.
A PICS which conforms to this PICS proforma specification shall:
a) describe an implementation which claims to conform to TS 102 687 [1] and TS 102 724 [2];
b) be a conforming ICS proforma which has been completed in accordance with the instructions for completion
given in clause A.1;
c) include the information necessary to uniquely identify both the supplier and the implementation.

Annex A (normative):
PICS proforma
Notwithstanding the provisions of the copyright clause related to the text of the present document, ETSI grants that
users of the present document may freely reproduce the PICS proforma in this annex so that it can be used for its
intended purposes and may further publish the completed PICS proforma.
A.1 Guidance for completing the ICS proforma
A.1.1 Purposes and structure
The purpose of this PICS proforma is to provide a mechanism whereby a supplier of an implementation of the
requirements defined in relevant specifications may provide information about the implementation in a standardised
manner.
The PICS proforma is subdivided into clauses for the following categories of information:
- instructions for completing the PICS proforma;
- identification of the implementation;
- identification of the protocol;
- PICS proforma tables (for example: Major capabilities, etc.).
A.1.2 Abbreviations and conventions
This annex does not reflect dynamic conformance requirements but static ones. In particular, a condition for support of
a PDU parameter does not reflect requirements about the syntax of the PDU (i.e. the presence of a parameter) but the
capability of the implementation to support the parameter.
In the sending direction, the support of a parameter means that the implementation is able to send this parameter (but it
does not mean that the implementation always sends it).
In the receiving direction, it means that the implementation supports the whole semantic of the parameter that is
described in the main part of the present document.
As a consequence, PDU parameter tables in this annex are not the same as the tables describing the syntax of a PDU in
the reference specification.
The PICS proforma contained in this annex is comprised of information in tabular form in accordance with the
