Introduction
This part of ISO 13184 specifies the requirements of a real-time decision support system for guidance
information, designed to enhance mobility and vehicle safety and to provide a parking guide service
using personal ITS stations. The purpose of the system is to transmit guidance or warning messages to
drivers and pedestrians in real time, enhance the user’s convenience, and avoid congestion in parking
facilities by preventing accidents and enabling easy parking.
In addition, an application level guidance protocol for crossroads, safety warning and parking bay
guidance services between roadside ITS stations, installed at the road side, and user’s personal ITS
stations, is defined.
This part of ISO 13184 considers a protocol, which covers all subjects related to traffic safety, including
pedestrians and vehicle drivers. Therefore, this protocol describes how the safety-related services are
provided using personal ITS stations.
This system is based on the following assumptions:
— Personal ITS stations have limited resources. Therefore, the protocol is designed in such way that it
can be implemented with limited resources.
— The use cases related to the safety warning and parking bay guidance services can be classified
in various ways. Also, these use cases can be enabled or disabled depending on the specific
circumstances of roads and parking bays. Therefore, the protocol is designed to be flexible and
extendable, which enables to add or delete use cases conveniently.
— The protocol contains core data elements to configure the messages transmitted by personal ITS
stations and roadside ITS stations. The major use case includes safety warning at the road and the
parking bay guidance.
— The protocol provided by this part of ISO 13184 does not take the network or transport level protocol
into account. Instead, only the application level protocol for the safety warning and parking bay
guidance services are presented.

Intelligent transport systems — Guidance protocol via
personal ITS station for advisory safety systems —
Part 1:
General information and use case definitions
1 Scope
This part of ISO 13184 specifies guidance information protocol to provide real-time decision support
system to drivers or pedestrians using personal ITS stations:
Reference architecture for the real-time decision support system
This reference architecture provides a general structure for real-time decision support systems and
the method of message exchange between the personal ITS station and the roadside ITS station.
This reference architecture is used to build the interconnections between personal ITS stations and
roadside ITS stations.
Design method of application protocols for light-weighted devices
This method is a flexible application protocol for safety warning and parking guidance services.
Unlike many other application protocols in the ITS and Telematics domains, this protocol makes the
client part independent of use cases for supporting light-weighted devices.
Use cases at the road and parking bays for warning and parking guide
This part of ISO 13184 describes the use cases applicable to the communication services between
personal ITS stations and roadside ITS stations for the purposes of providing safety warning and
parking guidance.

4 Conventions
This part of ISO 13184 is based on the conventions discussed in the OSI Service Conventions
(ISO/IEC 10731:1994) as they apply for communication services. The ASN.1-based Road Guidance
Protocol (RGP) is applicable to OSI layers 5, 6 and 7.
5 Series overview and structure
ISO 13184 provides all documents and references required to support the implementation of the
requirements related to standardized access to guidance via personal ITS station for advisory safety
systems. ISO 13184 consists of the following parts.
Part 1: General information and use case definition
Part 1 provides an overview of the document set and structure along with the use case definition
and common set of resources (definitions, references), which are used for all subsequent parts.
Part 2: Road guidance protocol (RGP) requirements and specification
Part 2 specifies all technical requirements related to the application level Road Guidance Protocol
(RGP) to be used between the personal ITS station and the roadside ITS station. The requirements
will reflect the deriving needs from the use cases as specified in this part of the technical report.
[2]
The protocol shall be defined according to the requirements as specified in ISO 14817 .
Part 3: Protocol conformance test cases
Part 3 specifies conformance test cases for a self-conformance test by the provider of the personal
ITS station and the roadside ITS station. The conformance test cases will follow the use cases
defined in part 1 as well as the requirements stated in Part 2.
The purpose of Part 3 is to provide the test procedure of the information flow between the personal
ITS station and the roadside ITS station. The information is transferred only from the corresponding
roadside ITS station to the personal ITS stations, where the personal ITS station locates within the
communication range of the corresponding local sever. This final step in the development process
enables to verify the system for all providers that their personal ITS station and/or the roadside ITS
stations meet a high degree of functional requirements expected by the end user.

6 General information
6.1 Purpose of this part of ISO 13184
This part of ISO 13184 addresses three major areas:
— identification of the requirements of application level protocol for safety warning and parking
guidance services, that can be frequently inserted, modified and deleted;
© ISO 2013 – All rights reserved 3

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
ISO/TR 13184-1:2013(E)

— identification of the method to describe the communication protocol for all subjects related to traffic
safety, including warnings and the parking bay guidance services between the roadside ITS station
and the personal ITS station;
— specification of the major use cases, that should be included for the advance warning of accidents at
crossroads and the parking bay guidance.
6.2 Relevant standards
Application level protocols for ITS define some important applications, their services and message
transmission sequences. These predefined applications are generally called use cases. The services and
message sequences of an ITS application protocol are fixed and applications should implement a rigid-
formatted message set and message sequences for each use case.
[5] [6]
SAE J2735 and EN 12795 define the interoperability among DSRC applications through the use of
standardized message sets, data frames and data elements.
These standards provide the message sets, data frames and data elements (if applicable) to produce
interoperable DSRC applications between Roadside Equipment (RSE) and On-Board Equipment (OBE).
ISO 13184-2 proposes an ASN.1-based flexible application Road Guidance Protocol (RGP) via R-ITS-S and
P-ITS-S for safety warning and parking guidance services.

7.1 Overview
7.1.1 Basic principles for use case definition
Basic principles have been established as a guideline to define the use cases:
— The use cases of guidance protocol to support the advisory safety systems describe the interaction
between the personal ITS station and the roadside ITS station.
— The use cases in this part of ISO 13184 define sample cases to guide or give warnings required to support
advisory safety systems for drivers and pedestrians, which are applicable for any personal ITS station.

use case clus-
ter
1 – Crossroads This cluster is separated into five use cases by taking the signal violating vehicle as
with a traffic a risk factor. The driver of a vehicle at a crossroads is required to follow the traffic
signal signals. The use cases presented in this cluster are designed to provide services for
crossroads traffic control while complying with the signalling system and protecting
pedestrians on a pedestrian crossing.
  — UC 1.1 — Vehicle violates a stop signal without stopping
  — UC 1.2 — Vehicle violates traffic signal and is inside the crossroads
  — UC 1.3 — Guiding the pedestrian on a pedestrian crossing
  — UC 1.4 — Pedestrians violate the traffic signal on a pedestrian crossing
  — UC 1.5 — Traffic is bumper to bumper on the crossroads
2 – Crossroads This cluster considers the scenario that the crossroad is not equipped with a traffic
without a traf- signal, which may cause a traffic congestion if several vehicles enter into the cross-
fic signal roads simultaneously.
  — UC 2.1 — Prevent heavy traffic congestion at crossroads
This use case is designed to provide smooth traffic flow by preventing heavy traffic
congestion or reducing waiting time.

3 – Risky envi- This cluster describes two use cases that consider the frequent accidents area at the
ronment alarm curved road.
  — UC 3.1 — Vehicle strays into the path of an oncoming vehicle
  — UC 3.2 — Vehicle approaches the curved road with overspeed
The cluster considers the oncoming vehicle and speed limit regulation. The use cases
focus on reducing and preventing the accident which can be caused by the geometric
structure of the road.
The following two use cases consider the speed limit of the vehicles with some spe-
cial cases that contain school zones and severe weather conditions.
  — UC 3.3 — Risky environments alarm in severe weather condition
  — UC 3.4 — Risky environments alarm in the areas of speed limit enforcement
The use cases help safe driving by informing of the presence of the school zone and
the severe weather condition.
The following two use cases consider temporary road occupation scenarios and the
situation of an emergency vehicle to establish a clear path.
  — UC 3.5 — Vehicle approaches a temporary road occupation
This use case addresses the situation when a vehicle approaches a temporary road
occupation such as the road construction, accident/disabled vehicles or obstacles on
the road. By informing the status of temporary road occupation, the road congestion
will be prevented.
  — UC 3.6 — Emergency vehicle approaches on its route
This use case addresses the situation when an emergency vehicle is moving to
establish a clear path. This cluster handles the safety messaging procedure when an
emergency vehicle is approaching. By announcing the emergency vehicle approaching
information, an emergency vehicle can have a clear path.
4 – Parking bay This cluster describes two use cases for the parking guide.
guidance
  — UC 4.1 — Parking guidance when the vehicle enters the parking area
  — UC 4.2 — Searching the path and parking bay on demand
The parking path guide in the parking bay use case refers to simple transmission of
the path to the user’s personal ITS station, not to the vehicle navigation system.
When a vehicle enters the parking bay, it is difficult for the vehicle driver to check
how many parking bays are available at which spot. Therefore, if the parking bay is
full or if a parking bay is available but cannot be identified conveniently, the driver
will waste time to park the vehicle or even be unable to find a parking bay for the
vehicle. In addition, the driver may not be able to park the vehicle at the convenient
spot.
The detailed definition of each use case is defined in Clause 8.
Figure 5 shows the use case clusters and associated use cases.

8 Use case definition
8.1 Overview
This clause describes the major use cases at the crossroads, frequent accidents and parking bay areas.
The use cases at the crossroads are classified by the existence of a traffic signal. The use cases at the
parking bay are classified as two cases where one case is that an available parking bay is notified
only once a vehicle enters into the parking area, and the other case is that the parking bay guidance is
provided on demand as the traffic flow in the given parking bay changes while a vehicle is being parked.
Use cases for areas of frequent accidents are:
— risky environment alarm in the curved road,
— environment alarm in the speed limit area,
— temporary road occupation, and
— emergency vehicle approaching.
8.2 UC cluster 1 — Crossroads with a traffic signal
8.2.1 UC 1.1 — Vehicle violates a stop signal without stopping
This use case describes the safety guidance procedure when a vehicle violates a stop (red light) signal
at the crossroads.
Table 2 describes the UC 1.1 — Vehicle violates a stop signal without stopping (enters into the crossroads).

ISO/TR 13184-1:2013(E)

Table 2 — UC 1.1 — Vehicle violates a stop signal without stopping
Use case name UC 1.1 — Vehicle violates a stop signal without stopping
Goal Provide a “collision” notification/indication to the drivers of vehicles and pedestri-
ans at a crossroads in case another vehicle is not able to stop at the line when violat-
ing the stop signal (red light).
Actor R-ITS-S, P-ITS-S
Use case input The following input signals need to be considered:
  — A vehicle approaches the crossroads;
  — A forecast calculation, that the vehicle could potentially cross the stop line if
the stop signal (red light) is overlooked by the driver;
  — If the vehicle is able to stop at the line.
Use case output The following output signals need to be considered:
  — The R-ITS-S broadcasts an alarm signal/sound at the crossing;
  — The R-ITS-S broadcasts a “collision” notification/indication;
  — All P-ITS-S receive the “collision” notification/indication;
  — The R-ITS-S broadcasts a “release” indication if the vehicle was able to stop
at the line.
Brief descrip- When a vehicle enters a crossroads and cannot stop at the line due to the long brak-
tion ing distance and velocity of the vehicle, a “collision” notification/indication is sent
to all vehicles (P-ITS-S) and pedestrians at the same crossroads. Conversely, if the
vehicle is able to stop on the line, a “release” notification/indication is broadcasted
to all P-ITS-S.
Classification Mandatory
8.2.2 UC 1.2 — Vehicle violated traffic signal and is inside the crossroads
This use case describes the handling procedure for when a vehicle violates the stop signal (red light) and
locates (comes to a stillstand) inside the crossroads. This situation is similar to the use case described in
8.2.1. However, unlike 8.2.1, this use case considers the handling procedure when a vehicle has already
violated the traffic signal (red light) and stops after the stop line inside the crossroads.
Table 3 describes the UC 1.2 — Vehicle violated traffic signal and is inside the crossroads (came to
