ETSI TR 102 638 V1.1.1 (200
This application support facility monitors permanently the real time evolutions of relevant vehicle electronic
information either directly or through some in vehicle network. This facility further filters necessary variables allowing
the update of the vehicle dynamic parameters.
Main common requirements
• This support facility requires access to vehicle functions according to selected options (e.g. braking system,
steering system, tyre pressure monitoring system, stability control system, speed control, etc.).
• This support facility requires capabilities to filter the selected parameters being needed by applications and
other facilities (e.g. master cylinder pressure, steering wheel angle, steering wheel angle rate of change,
programmed speed control value, stability control status, yaw rate, vehicle speed, acceleration control, etc.).
• This support facility requires capabilities to update parameters values being used for CAM.
5.3 Station state monitoring
This application support facility is permanently monitoring the current static state of ITS station. For ITS vehicle
station, this requires the combination of different variables which values are collected from in vehicle system
e.g. engine/power train, cockpit, windscreen wiper, lights control, etc. Some of the monitored variables are specific to
the type of ITS vehicle station e.g. tilt for a motorcycle, light bar and siren states for an emergency or service vehicle.
Principle of this support facility
This application support facility monitors permanently (directly or through some in vehicle network) relevant ITS
station functions and filter some variable values allowing the update of the ITS station state.
Main common requirements
• This support facility requires access to vehicle functions according to selected options
(e.g. engine/power train, cockpit, windscreen wiper, lights control, etc.).
• This support facility requires capabilities to filter the selected parameters being used by applications and other
facilities (e.g. engine temperature, gear status, light bar in use, siren in use, tank filing level, wiper rate, etc.).
• This support facility requires capabilities to update vehicle state values being used for CAM.
5.4 Services management
This application support facility manages the ITS station life cycle services through downloading of new customer
services, up-grading or removing of existing services. This facility will update the capabilities in the information
support. Consequently, list of ITS services supported by the station will be part of the services announcement.
Principle of this support facility
Services provisioning servers advertise the availability of new services which can be contracted/downloaded by
stations. In receiving ITS station, the "service management" support facility is analyzing received proposals. The
application layer, after a local dialogue with the user if necessary, identifies selected services to be installed. Then, the
downloading of selected services software and associated data are achieved by this support facility, the services are then
activated at the station level. Such downloading operation will lead to an updating of the vehicle capabilities.
Main common requirements
• Capabilities from a service provisioning server to advertise mobiles on the availability of new services and
associated contractual conditions. This can be achieved directly from a global network or indirectly using a
road side unit or a hot spot.
• Capability to receive and analyze service proposals messages.
• Capability to present proposed services to the application layer and get its selection request.
• Capability to request the downloading of subscribed services to the service provider.
