ISO/TS 14822-1:2006(E)
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.
In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a
technical committee may decide to publish other types of normative document:
— an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agreement between technical experts in
an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members
of the parent committee casting a vote;
— an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) represents an agreement between the members of a technical
committee and is accepted for publication if it is approved by 2/3 of the members of the committee casting
a vote.
An ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is reviewed after three years in order to decide whether it will be confirmed for a
further three years, revised to become an International Standard, or withdrawn. If the ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is
confirmed, it is reviewed again after a further three years, at which time it must either be transformed into an
International Standard or be withdrawn.
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/TS 14822-1 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).
ISO/TS 14822 consists of the following parts, under the general title Traffic and Travel Information — General
specifications for medium-range pre-information via dedicated short-range communication:
⎯ Part 1: Downlink

ISO/TS 14822-1:2006(E)
Introduction
Traffic and Travel Information may be disseminated through a number of services or means of communication,
covering static displays, portable terminals and in-vehicle equipment.
For all such services the data to be disseminated, and message structure involved in the various interfaces,
require clear definition and standard formats in order to allow competitive products to operate with any
received data. This Technical Specification focuses on the application data specification whereby data are
produced at a central location and disseminated via a network of Dedicated Short-Range Communication
(DSRC) beacons. This part of ISO 14822 addresses the data specifications for the downlink data flows
between a central location and moving vehicles passing a predetermined location. ISO 14822-2 addresses the
data specification for the uplink data flows that emanate from a moving vehicle, passing a predetermined
location, to a central location. In order to facilitate all the demands of ISO 14822-2, four bytes in the downlink
message are reserved for the beacon to insert the date/time stamp of the download. Due to the need for the
in-station to generate message CRCs, these bytes are not included in the header CRC.
Other documents are being produced by the CEN/TC 278 Working Group 4 and ISO/TC 204 Working
Group 10 to cover TTI dissemination via other communication means and services.
This Technical Specification specifies the application protocols and message structures for delivering Medium
Range Pre Information (MRPI) as accepted within CEN TC 278 for Traffic and Travel Information (TTI) via
Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) devices.
DSRC has specific characteristics that differentiate this communication medium from other communication
media envisaged for traffic and traveller information, i.e. RDS-TMC (and later DAB) and GSM.
These characteristics are:
⎯ bi-directional communication, which is useful for collecting information/data from the vehicle or perhaps
selecting vehicles for a particular dialogue; and
⎯ spot communication, i.e. communications that can only take place at a precise point. This is a particularly
important characteristic. The communication zone does not exceed some 10 m or 20 m in front of the
beacon. At the time of communication, the position of the vehicle is accurately known, not only in terms of
geographical localization (i.e. comparable to what can be obtained with a GPS receiver) but in terms of
road and travel direction on this road. This localization feature is used beyond the communication zone.
By combining initial location information with information from the vehicle's speed sensor or odometer, the
position of the vehicle is known with great accuracy for several kilometres and reasonable accuracy for
tens of kilometres. Location information is updated when the vehicle passes the next beacon, probably at
the next junction. This may be a small distance in urban areas or a large distance on motorway or
expressway networks.
This part of ISO 14822 describes the application protocol, data definitions and message structures for each
MRPI service defined.
It forms part of a series of Technical Specifications defining the framework of a DSRC link in the Road
Transport Traffic Telematics (RTTT) environment.
The communication requirements of many RTTT applications can be fulfilled by DSRC. The DSRC
International Standards enable compliant communication systems to serve multiple RTTT application in
parallel.
This Technical Specification deals with the Application layer only.

CEN has issued the following set of European Standards for the DSRC link:
⎯ EN 12253 Road transport and traffic telematics — Dedicated short-range communication — Physical
layer using microwave at 5,8 GHz;
⎯ EN 12795 Road transport and traffic telematics — Dedicated Short Range communication (DSRC) —

ISO has issued the following International Standard for the DSRC link:
⎯ ISO 15628 Transport information and control systems (TICS) — Dedicated Short-Range Communication
(DSRC) — DSRC application layer.
General architecture of MRPI application
For simple applications, the information transmitted defines an event or a characteristic and the distance from
the point of delivery to this event or characteristic. Information from the vehicle odometer is used to measure
the distance driven by the vehicle and modify the distance shown on the driver's display or operate alert
messages as the event is approached. The vehicle equipment need not possess geographic localization
knowledge as the information is presented relative to the position of the last beacon passed. Whilst
information will often be related to the road conditions immediately following a beacon, the architecture will
allow the transmission of data covering much larger distances (up to two hours travelling time may be
appropriate on Trans European network roads). Such information will be updated by subsequent beacons.
The bi-directional communication facility can be used to retrieve information from vehicles such as average
speed data, location of fog, heavy rain, slippery roads, etc. This information can provide valuable floating car
data for Road Network Managers and subsequently as a warning to the following traffic.
Application architecture description
From analysis carried out within the MARTA project WP2, a typical architecture is based on:
⎯ a central control system which configures information broadcast by each beacon, based on the various
sources of information available. It also retrieves information collected from vehicles at the different
beacon sites;
⎯ beacons located along the road network. Each beacon consists of a beacon controller with one or more
heads as required to provide full coverage over multi-lane roads. The controller interfaces to the
communication network;
⎯ on-board terminals located in vehicles. Equipment is composed of a tag for communication which may be
linked to a terminal supporting the application. The complexity and cost of this equipment will vary
according to the applications supported.

ISO/TS 14822-1:2006(E)
Beacon equipment may take different forms. Complicated beacons handling dynamic information and two-way
communications with vehicles will be connected to a high-speed communications network. Less complicated
beacons handling static information (which may be changed) will be connected to low-speed networks and at
the other extreme the simplest beacons, warning perhaps of black spots or advertising some infrastructure
detail, could be stand-alone.
Information flow
This Technical Specification assumes that the DSRC supporting architecture will be as follows:
⎯ a central system configures beacons with appropriate information to be transmitted to vehicles, and
regularly polls beacons to retrieve information collected from vehicles;
⎯ each beacon broadcasts a signal to indicate its presence; when a tag is present in the communication
zone of the beacon, it indicates its presence and receives information from the beacon; in parallel, it
transmits to the beacon information stored and configured by the on-board application;
⎯ when receiving data collected from vehicles, a beacon can, where the network allows, send information
directly to the control centre, without waiting for the poll, especially if the information is related to safety;
⎯ the application running on the on-board terminal may regularly poll the tag (communication controller) to
detect new data, and to update vehicle-based information stored in the tag, ready for transmission to the
next beacon.
It is important to note that these information flows can run in parallel, i.e. for MRPI applications no real
dialogue is expected between the on-board equipment, beacons and central system; information processing is
detached from the transmission process.
On-board terminals
One key aspect of the transmission of traffic and travel information on DSRC is that different types of on-board
terminals can be envisaged, covering a wide range of end-users' prices.
The simpler terminal envisaged for MRPI is a tag developed for electronic fee collection, with limited
possibilities to warn the driver of equipped vehicles in case of incidents on the next 4 km or 5 km (i.e. with a
LED or a buzzer); the terminal could indicate two or three levels of seriousness (from incident to major
accident, for example).
A second level of terminal could consist of an after-sale terminal with simple graphic display and limited
interface with the vehicle (power, possibly speed sensor).
The third level of terminal consists of a fully integrated terminal, available as an option on the vehicle, and
possibly having connection with other communication media (GSM or RDS-TMC). In this case, more
information can be retrieved from the vehicle (activation of fog lamp, high-speed wipers, etc.).
Characteristics of applications from an HMI point of view
The information transmitted to a beacon will generally consist of an event and a relative distance from the
beacon. The information does not need to be immediately presented to the driver of equipped vehicles. The
time of presentation is related to the nature of the information as well as the location.
This feature is important, as it means that the place where the transmission takes place (i.e. the position of the
beacon) does not need to be correlated with the nature of the information transmitted (nature and location).
This means that the driving factor for the installation of the beacons is mainly the refreshment rate of the
information on board the vehicle, rather than the exact position of the beacon.
Therefore, for the driver of equipped vehicles the transmission of information can be completely transparent.
For example, information about road works can be transmitted at a beacon, with an indication of, for example,
5 km. For the benefit of the driver, there is no need to announce the information immediately, as in this case
© ISO 2006 – All rights reserved vii

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------

ISO/TS 14822-1:2006(E)
the information will not modify the route (which is not the case for a big accident) and an early warning will
have no impact on the driving attitude. On the contrary, information can be announced 1 km before the
roadwork, which in this case will have an impact on the driver of equipped vehicles (he/she should be more
alert during the following minutes and could even start to reduce his/her speed).
One characteristic of the announcements, from an HMI point of view, is that information about an event is
presented to the driver of equipped vehicles depending on the relative distance between the vehicle and the
event, which brings advantages, as compared to information which can be given through channels such as
FM radio (where the “absolute” location of the problem is given, for example “Roadwork after ROISSY toward
LILLE”).
Information is correctly filtered (information displayed is pertinent for the driver) and there is no ambiguity on
the location, especially for drivers who are not familiar with the environment and who do not know place
names.
An advantage of such a way to present the information to the driver of equipped vehicles is that the
information transmitted is self-sufficient, i.e. there is no need to have an on-board database to decode
geographic names. Geographic names can still be used for some MRPI applications (to indicate distances or
journey times to given places, for example), but due to the high data rate of the DSRC, it seems possible to
achieve such an application without on-board decoding database.
Of course, information transmitted can be language-independent, following for example the coding of events
proposed by RDS-TMC.
