Introduction
Context of C-ITS
This document is part of a family of deliverables from Standard Development Organizations (SDOs)
for Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS), a subset of standards for Intelligent Transport
Systems (ITS).
ITS aims at improving surface transportation in terms of:
— safety, e.g. crash avoidance, obstacle detection, emergency call, dangerous goods;
— efficiency, e.g. navigation, green wave, priority, lane access control, contextual speed limits, car
sharing;
— comfort, e.g. telematics, parking, electric vehicle charging, infotainment;
by applying information and communication technologies (ICT).
To support interoperability, C-ITS specifications are developed to exchange and share information
within a given ITS application domain, or between ITS application domains.
C-ITS services are based on the exchange of data between vehicles of any category, the roadside and
urban infrastructure (e.g. traffic lights, road tolls, variable message signs), control and services centres
(e.g. traffic control centre, map providers), and other road users (e.g. pedestrians, cyclists).
Many ITS services require the cooperation of vehicles with their surrounding environment (e.g.
other vehicles, other road users, roadside and urban infrastructure), whilst other services require
connectivity to remote service platforms (e.g. road traffic control centres, map providers, service
providers, fleet managers, equipment manufacturers).
In order to support:
— a large variety of C-ITS services with diverging requirements, and
— efficient sharing of information maintained by individual service applications,
it is necessary to combine multiple access technologies and communication protocols with distinct
performance characteristics (communication range, available bandwidth, end-to-end transmission
delay, quality of service, security, etc.).
Combining multiple access technologies and communication protocols requires a common approach
to the way communications and data are managed in a secure way. A functional architecture (the ITS
station architecture) has therefore been specified to manage security, communications and data related
to C-ITS services.
For more detail on C-ITS, see the ITS station and communication architecture specified in ISO 21217,
and the multi-part technical report CEN/TR 21186 providing guidelines on the usage of C-ITS; see also
https:// www .itsstandards .eu/ cits.
Need for position, velocity and time (PVT) information in C-ITS
Many ITS services, particularly those where vehicles or other mobile devices such as smartphones are
involved, require position, velocity and time (PVT) information. Such PVT information is needed for
various purposes. It is notably used by navigation systems, any related ITS service where position is
needed (e.g. car-sharing, taxi ride booking, fleet management), advanced driver assistance or automated
driving systems. The information transmitted between ITS stations or between components of an ITS
station can be required to be marked with position or time information (geo- or time stamping).
PVT-related information can originate from various sources, such as a global navigation satellite system
or systems (GNSSs). Accuracy and reliability can be improved by usage of serval sources, such as anti-
spoofing flags used for GNSS signal authentication, inertial measurement units (IMUs), light detection

and ranging (LIDAR)-based sensors, video camera-based sensors, digital maps and differential
correction systems. Input from the various sources needs to be properly merged and the output be
associated with a defined accuracy.
The provision of PVT information in a standardized form that can be used by all types of C-ITS services
(e.g. road safety, traffic efficiency, public transport, freight and logistics, emergency call and other
value-added services) is urgently needed, particularly in pilots and pre-deployment of C-ITS standards
in Europe (e.g. ITS Corridor, ECo-AT, SCOOP@F, C-Roads), North America (e.g. Connected Vehicle Pilot
Deployments) and Asia (e.g. Anting Project). In addition, PVT information is applicable to forthcoming
deployments of the European emergency call (eCall) service. Further, high resolution and accurate PVT
information is essential for automated driving.
High availability, precision and integrity of PVT information is essential for some C-ITS services, notably
for advanced driver assistance or automated driving (e.g. lane keeping, platooning).
A major challenge in defining and assessing the (GNSS) positioning performance, is that it is highly
influenced by the environment and the operational scenario. Research projects, standardization
activities and pilot projects are on-going to address open issues and to define a common and broadly
adopted framework, including the definition of relevant quality parameters and associated test
procedures for conformance assessment.
SaPPART, an Action under the European Cooperation in Science and Technology programme, brought
together experts in GNSSs, ITS and mobility to address the open issues. SaPPART defined a framework
[22][23][24]
for the assessment of the performances of GNSS-based positioning terminals , whose concepts
have been integrated in leading ongoing research projects (e.g. inLANE and ESCAPE).
Context of use of this document
This document aims to define a functionality providing the PVT information and the interface between
this new functionality and other existing functionalities of the ITS station so that it can be used in a
uniform, flexible and future-proof extensible way by ITS-S application processes complying with the
ITS station and communication architecture and related standards.
This document makes provision for any kind of quality parameter definitions, for example, the accuracy
levels for predefined confidence levels, associated with PVT information.
It is outside the scope of this document to define the associated conformance evaluation test procedures.
[11]
The EN 16803 series defines a framework for assessing the performance of ITS GNSS-based
terminals. It defines so-called protection levels of position and velocity (i.e. error bounds around
the estimated position and velocity provided by the positioning module), of which each is associated
with an integrity risk (i.e. probability that the actual error for a given position or velocity exceeds
[11]
the associated protection level). EN 16803-2 defines a test methodology based on replay in the
laboratory of real data sets recorded during fields tests. It may be used to assess the accuracy of the
position and velocity of the positioning terminal and underpin the confidence levels of the position and
the velocity as defined in this document.
