Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 14815 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee
CEN/TC 278, Road transport and traffic telematics, in collaboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 204,
Intelligent transport systems, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and
CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This first edition cancels and replaces ISO/TS 14815:2000, which has been technically revised.

Introduction
System specification
This International Standard is designed to enable users and suppliers of AVI/AEI systems to specify system
specification that will enable a nominal interoperability based on a DSRC link.
The terms “AVI” and “AEI” are used both to describe “independently functioning AVI/AEI systems” and as “the
function of identification within other RTTT/TICS systems”. This International Standard supports both such
uses where no other application or sector standard applies.
Whilst it may be desirable to determine a single set of requirements for operation in all environments and
under all operating conditions, this could impose unacceptable costs.
This International Standard therefore provides standard “classes” for different aspects of system specification,
such that a system specifier may select the appropriate performance parameters to meet a particular
requirement. Supporting informative annexes also provide a number of general use “categories” which may be
used to specify the environmental and operating parameters to support interoperable applications.
The architecture descriptions provided in this International Standard are in compliance with the guidelines
provided by CEN/TC 278 WG13 ISO/TC 204 WG1.
For the data structure elements, Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) Packed Encoding Rules (PER)
(ISO 8825-2) are used. This usage provides maximum interoperability and conformance to existing standards.
For detailed information on the use of ASN.1 PER for AVI/AEI applications, reference is made to ISO 14816.
This International Standard provides classification procedures and details test requirements needed to support
system definition. These requirements are, wherever possible, determined by reference to existing standards
and established practices.
Test requirements
Test requirements are determined for AVI/AEI system components. The requirements to meet this
International Standard encompass general performance measurement, operational, and environmental
aspects.
How to use this International Standard
It is also an objective to provide users with different applications and in different environmental circumstances
a useful tool that is flexible enough to serve the various different needs. The categorization and classification
system in this International Standard provides for this.
A brief guide showing how to use this International Standard is provided at the end of Annex A.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 14815:2005(E)

Road transport and traffic telematics — Automatic vehicle and
equipment identification — System specifications
1 Scope
This International Standard defines a generic AVI/AEI System specification for nominal AVI/AEI to provide an
enabling International Standard, which, whilst allowing the system specifier to determine the performance
levels and operating conditions, provides a framework for nominal interoperability.
Within the road context of the Transport and Traffic Telematics Sector, AVI and AEI systems have the specific
objective of achieving a unique or unambiguous positive identification of a vehicle or item of equipment, and to
make that identification automatically.
Whilst AVI may also be seen as an essential component of some applications, the particular needs of such
systems are outside the scope of this International Standard. As far as is possible, care is still taken to provide
a useful tool for such applications.
This International Standard only refers to AVI/AEI in the road environment. Multimodal and intermodal
exchanges of AVI/AEI are outside the scope of this International Standard.
Where AVI/AEI applications are part of a larger system, and where no standardized application-specific test
requirements exist, these test requirements apply.
Anonymity and privacy issues are discussed in ISO 14816, and are not handled in this International Standard.
This International Standard is designed for system specification that will enable a nominal interoperability
based on a DSRC link. AVI/AEI systems that are relying on other link types are outside the scope of this
International Standard for those parameters where the link type influences parameters.
The scope of this International Standard is confined to generic AVI/AEI system specification for systems that
have the following “core” components:
 A means of communication between the vehicle/equipment and the reading station (e.g. a DSRC link);
 operation within a reference architecture which enables compatible systems to read and interpret the
identification (See ISO TR 14814);
 compliance to commonly understood data structures that enable meaningful interpretation of the data
exchanged in the identification sequence (See ISO 14816);
 the provision of operating and environmental parameters (or classes of operating parameters) within
which such systems must successfully function without impairing interoperability. This is to ensure that
the system specifier can state his requirements clearly to Implementation Designers and Integrators, and
measure the performance of such systems (covered in this International Standard).

6 Requirements
6.1 Generic system specification for AVI/AEI systems
This clause summarizes the generic system specification for AVI/AEI systems in terms of functions supported,
data exchanges, categorization and classification. The requirements defined in this clause:
 provide operation within the reference architecture defined in ISO/TR 14814,
 allocate application data in accordance with ENV ISO 14816, and
 enable nominal interoperability.
To obtain interoperability, it is a requirement that nominal AVI/AEI system FE shall have the capability to
operate with nominal AVI/AEI system OBE, albeit of different capability using an air interface as referenced
in 6.5.
However, the environmental and operating conditions within which such equipment has to function may be
different according to geographical location, traffic operating conditions, etc. This International Standard
provides environmental/operational classes grouped into categories to enable the marketplace to decide the
most appropriate FE for individual fixed locations. This is with the knowledge that, within the
operating/environmental constraints selected, any properly configured standard compliant AVI/AEI system
OBE shall have the capability to be identified by all standard compliant AVI/AEI system FE.
To obtain nominal AVI/AEI system interoperability, it is a requirement that OBEs shall have the capability to
operate with nominal AVI/AEI system FE.
However, the environmental and operating conditions within which on-board equipment has to function may
be different according to geographical location, vehicle or equipment type, OBE location, etc. This
International Standard provides options and environmental/operational classes to enable the marketplace to
select the most appropriate OBE equipment, with the knowledge that, within the operating/environmental
constraints selected, any properly configured standard compliant AVI/AEI system FE shall have the capability
to identify all standard compliant AVI/AEI OBEs passing within its compass.
These generic system specifications provide a migration path to later generations of equipment and to
equipment of greater capability.
In order to enable an AVI/AEI system to operate across wide areas, it is necessary for the system to use the
standardized interfaces architecture and data structures normalized in this family of AVI/AEI European
Standards. As particular system specifications will vary, well-declared and flexible structures are used. It is
important, for example, that AVI/AEI system FE facilities can effectively operate different variants of OBE. The
system specification defined in this International Standard supports the numbering schemes and data
structuring defined in ISO 14816.

6.2 System specification: architecture
It is the Vision of the AVI/AEI system specification International Standard to:
“provide a method (trans-national and interoperable) of automatically identifying a vehicle or item of equipment
using a standard DSRC link.”
Other subsequent standards may determine requirements for AVI/AEI systems working at other air interfaces.
It is the Mission of the AVI/AEI system specification International Standard to:
“Define the functionality, environmental and operating parameters (system specification for AVI/AEI) such that
they may achieve the objectives of the Vision Statement in an Open Systems Environment, enabling
interoperability, whilst retaining the ability for different equipment to coexist.”
According to the operational situation, AVI/AEI systems may be viewed either as a service to support an
application (such as the vehicle identification component in a public transport system or freight management
system), or as an application in itself (for example, the identification of a “probe” vehicle in a traffic
management situation or in an enforcement situation). As such, the AVI/AEI system function may be achieved
using purpose-specific dedicated equipment (such as an AVI/AEI system transponder), or may be achieved
using equipment installed for the application that it supports, or indeed, using existing equipment installed for
another application (such as a freight logistics system utilizing AVI techniques). Such multi-application support
and interoperability will be particularly common in respect of the OBE, although it will also be required in
respect of the FE.
