Introduction
There are several standards covering the sector of Electronic Fee Collection (EFC) within Road Transport and
Traffic Telematics (RTTT). Most of the standards are related to the different interfaces that are found in EFC
systems, but with few or no references to other EFC standards. Due to this a need has arisen for an ‘umbrella’ or
Architecture standard for EFC.
The objective of this standard is to define a reference system architecture for EFC used for vehicle related transport
services. The standard provides a framework of conditions for EFC that should be considered during the
specification and implementation. The given information is technology independent as far as possible to enable
various forms of EFC systems. Specific details with regard to e.g. payment means, communication medium and
design of equipment are intentionally kept out of the scope.
The standard provides details with regard to following aspects:
— Terminology, definitions;
— List of relevant standards, regulations and other relevant documents;
— Architecture model for EFC with regard to all relevant parties and facilities (entities);
— Identification of interfaces, including references to relevant (Pre-)standards / Technical Specifications;
EFC encompasses all systems designed to collect fees from users in a non-manual way for vehicle related
transport services. Generally EFC is characterised by the use of electronic means of payment, by absence of any
action from the user at the moment that payment or transaction is made and that payment or transaction for the
transport service may be collected whether or not the vehicle is moving or stationary. EFC does not exclude
manual payment, conventional money transaction, nor does it include payment by means of sticker, vignettes,
tickets, or magnetic stripe cards etc.
The applications to which EFC is related are Toll Collection, Road Pricing, Parking and Individual Traveller and
Traffic Information. EFC systems for public passenger transport or comparable applications that do not require
vehicle related EFC equipment are excluded.
Vision
To provide enabling standards for the collection of fees from road users by automatic means, primarily by use of an
air interface.
Mission
It is the mission of this standard to describe the overall system architecture for Electronic Fee Collection with the
Road Transport and Traffic Telematics.

5.1 General
This clause defines three essential issues related to Electronic Fee Collection:
a) Payment means and payment method;
b) Payment system;
c) Model for EFC used for vehicle related transport services.
5.2 Payment means and Payment method
By payment means is meant the expression of a Contract between the User and the Issuer that allows the User to
access the transport services available in the Payment System.
EXAMPLE 1 An example of a payment means is an account issued by VISA or MasterCard. The expression of the Contract
will be the information stored on the card and in the written contract between the User and the Issuer. For the User and the
11
---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
SIST-TS CEN ISO/TS 17573:2003
CEN ISO/TS 17573:2003 (E)
Transport service provider the card will be the crucial information carrier and for this reason the card itself becomes the symbol
of the contract and is often referred to as the payment means. An On-Board Unit may also be related to an account. In this case
the On-Board Unit becomes the symbol of the contract and is referred to as the payment means even though the real payment
means is the contract and the account behind the On-Board Unit. This perception of the On-Board Unit as the payment means
is strengthened in those cases where the payment means is an electronic purse on an IC-card inserted in the On-Board Unit.
The User will see the combination of the On-Board Unit and the IC-card as the payment means even though the payment
means is the information (electronic values) stored on the IC-card. In reality the OBU is just a physical device enabling
communication between the electronic purse (the payment means) and the charging point equipment at the roadside.
EXAMPLE 2 Another example of a payment means is illustrated by the situation where a User makes a call to the operator
to purchase his User rights via the phone. The User will give some information to the operator, e.g. a bank account number or
credit card number or even his vehicle licence plate number. The information (the ‘contract’) is stored somewhere in the EFC
system enabling the User to benefit from the transport service and the operator to charge the User for the transport service
provided, e.g. by debiting a bank account or sending an invoice based on information from the national vehicle register.
Payment means also cash, cheques etc. used for any manual fee collection at the charging point.
Payment mode means the concept defining the time dimension in payment (pre-payment, immediate payment or
post-payment).
Payment scope means the field of application in which the payment means is accepted, e.g. national transport
services.
By Payment method is meant the combination of Payment means, payment mode and payment scope. An example
will be a post-paid central account that can be used in all EFC systems within one country.
5.3 Payment system
5.3.1 General
By payment system is meant a financial system that includes the complete process of issuing and use of payment
means, clearing and settlement of transactions.
The payment means to give the holder of the payment access to the transport services related to the payment system.
Any transport related payment system can be described by means of the abstract definition given in Figure 1.
Figure 1 — The basic entities in a Payment system for EFC
5.3.2 The User
The User, i.e. the user of the Transport service, will receive a transport service from a Transport Service Provider
and the User shall pay for the transport service. The transport service can be the use of a tolled motorway or
parking in a parking house. The User can use values like electronic values on an IC-card for payment or he can
use payment information, e.g. a credit card number or a reference to a central account held by the Issuer. The
reference can be the unique identity of an electronic tag installed in the vehicle used by the User.

CEN ISO/TS 17573:2003 (E)
5.3.3 The Transport Service Provider
The Transport Service Provider will receive the payment from the user for the transport service he has provided. If
the payment is in an electronic form or in form of payment data, the Transport Service provider has to convert the
values or information into real money. If the values are electronic values on an IC-card he will send a claim to the
issuer of the electronic values to exchange the values into money. If the payment is payment information the
Transport Service provider has to send a claim to the issuer of the payment means, e.g. a c
