Washington D.C. – A Bill introduced in Congress seeks to opening up Wi-Fi space for commercial use, using the Wi-Fi spectrum in the 5850-5925 megahertz band. This band spectrum was set aside for development V2V technology.
The technology called vehicle-to-vehicle commutation (V2V) that auto makers use to develop “Self-Driving and Smart Vehicles. After years in development, the technology aimed at making roads safer and saving lives and accidents every year may now be sidelined to make room for Wi-Fi.
“It’s an opportunity for people to get on to the internet. It’s an advantage for disadvantaged people who don’t have access to the internet to get public Wi-Fi,” Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) said. He and potential GOP presidential hopeful Marco Rubio introduced the Wi-Fi Innovation Act seeking to open up the radio frequency reserved for V2V.
“We’re making sure, first and foremost, the safety needs of the auto industry will be met, while also giving more opportunities for more innovation, more job creation, more economic expansion and more fairness in terms of accessing the internet,” Booker said.
The bill has bipartisan supporters in Congress and would require the FCC to evaluate whether Wi-Fi and V2V can co-exist.
“We want to get to the point where traffic moves like two schools of fish seamlessly moving together,” Dr. Peter Sweatman said.
He has been working on the technology for five years and is now asking Congress not to pass the bill, fearing it would mark open season on V2V’s bandwidth.
“Our concern is that any other traffic within that spectrum could potentially block one of these important signals,” Sweatman said. “We don’t want to be in a position where some other use of the spectrum for transmitting a movie or something, is going to have to be stopped so that our signal can get through.”
“Spectrum sharing could put the frequencies at risk of dangerous interference,” warned the NTSB. “The opportunity to improve transportation safety must not be delayed by issues associated with interference.”
NHTSA administrator Mark Rosekind said the issue is not about convenience or access to the web.
“This is about saving lives. We already made that decision,” Rosekind said. He doesn’t necessarily oppose spectrum sharing, but said it was the FCC who set aside the bandwidth 15 years ago.
The auto industry itself has invested billions in V2V in the technology developed
Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) Communications for Safety
Research Overview
Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communications for Safety is the dynamic wireless exchange of data between nearby vehicles that offers the opportunity for significant safety improvements. By exchanging anonymous, vehicle-based data regarding position, speed, and location (at a minimum), V2V communications enables a vehicle to: sense threats and hazards with a 360 degree awareness of the position of other vehicles and the threat or hazard they present; calculate risk; issue driver advisories or warnings; or take pre-emptive actions to avoid and mitigate crashes. At the heart of V2V communications is a basic application known as the Here I Am data message. This message can be derived using non-vehicle-based technologies such as GPS to identify location and speed of a vehicle, or vehicle-based sensor data wherein the location and speed data is derived from the vehicle’s computer and is combined with other data such as latitude, longitude, or angle to produce a richer, more detailed situational awareness of the position of other vehicles. Because the Here I Am data message can be derived from non-vehicle-based technologies that are ubiquitous within the marketplace, the ITS Program may leverage an opportunity to accelerate V2V capability and deployment in the near-term and produce safety benefits through reduced crashes sooner than through Original Equipment Manufacturer(OEM) embedded systems only.
The vision for V2V is that eventually, each vehicle on the roadway (inclusive of automobiles, trucks, buses, motor coaches, and motorcycles) will be able to communicate with other vehicles and that this rich set of data and communications will support a new generation of active safety applications and safety systems. V2V communications will enable active safety systems that can assist drivers in preventing 76 percent of the crashes on the roadway, thereby reducing fatalities and injuries that occur each year.
V2V Communications for Safety is a key component in the USDOT’s Vehicle to Vehicle Communications program, and is complemented by research programs that support connectivity among vehicles and infrastructure (V2I – ) and among vehicles and consumer devices (V2D) to deliver safety and mobility benefits.
Research Questions
The following research questions will be answered by the V2V Communications for Safety Program
- Are applications effective and are benefits validated?
- What infrastructure is needed? How much, where, when, and what type?
- What is the degree of market penetration needed and what is the required timing for effectiveness?
- What existing technologies can be leveraged to accelerate in-vehicle equipment?
- What are the special needs and applications for truck and transit vehicles?
- What is the business case for implementation?
Research Approach
Overview
Since 2002, the USDOT has been conducting research with automotive manufacturers in order to assess the feasibility of developing effective crash avoidance systems that utilize vehicle-to-vehicle communications. Engineering prototypes have been developed and demonstrated with applications that address the most critical crash scenarios which are:
- Emergency Brake Light Warning
- Forward Collision Warning
- Intersection Movement Assist
- Blind Spot and Lane Change Warning
- Do not pass Warning
- Control Loss Warning
The development of these applications was critical to understanding the functional and performance requirements for the underlying technologies such as positioning and communications. However, additional work needs to be done to address more complex crash scenarios for head-on collision avoidance, intersection collision avoidance, pedestrian crash warning and extending the capabilities to prevent motorcycle crashes. It is important to note that these capabilities could be achieved by providing V2V communication capabilities that complement other vehicle-based safety technologies.
This research plan consists of eight tracks that have been identified to represent the major research activities that are required to attain accelerated deployment of V2V based safety systems. The work program for the V2V Communications for Safety will continue the work started in 2002 to assess the feasibility of developing effective crash avoidance systems that utilize vehicle-to-vehicle communications. This research program will result in V2V communications capabilities that complement vehicle-based safety technologies that are currently available or under development throughout the automotive industry.
The work program will deliver:
- Sponsor collaborative research
- Guidelines and standards in collaboration with stakeholders
- Voluntary standards and regulations
- Compliance and longer term safety impact
- Infrastructure and implementation governance mechanism
- Supporting data for regulatory decisions
- Inputs to industry standards for promoting interoperability
- Human Factors guidelines
- Governance
A measure of success for the V2V Communications for Safety Program is the ability to answer critical research questions. The V2V Roadmap has been designed to provide the research, information, and demonstrated capabilities to answer these research questions.
Program Tracks
Track 1 – Crash Scenario Framework
The key objective of this track is to connect pre-crash scenarios to crash avoidance safety applications providing information that will enable the identification of safety application function, performance, and initial effectiveness benchmarks. This will establish a framework by which the crash scenarios are defined and new crash avoidance capabilities identified and described; ultimately leading to the selection of prototype applications that will be developed under the V2V Communications Program.
Track 2 – Interoperability
The key objective of the interoperability track is to resolve interoperability issues to ensure that safety applications work across all equipped vehicles and devices, regardless of make or model and original equipment or retrofit. Interoperability is critical to the effectiveness of V2V safety systems.
Track 3 – Benefits Assessment
The key objective of the benefits assessment track is to estimate the safety benefits that may be realized by deployment of various V2V safety applications. In addition, a methodology for estimating safety benefits for these and future safety applications will be implemented. Performance measures, objective test procedures, and an adapted version of the Advanced Crash Avoidance Technologies (ACAT) Safety Impact Methodology will be used to determine the safety benefits. Once estimates of safety benefits are validated, the safety application will be considered for either new regulation or the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) process.
Track 4 – Application Development
The key objective of Track 4 is to develop the selected safety applications, identified as the result of Track 1 efforts, into safety application prototypes. Information from the various tracks will provide an initial basis for the design and development of the selected safety application prototypes.
Track 5– Driver Issues
The key objective of this track is to develop a framework that can assess the impact of driver issues on the effectiveness of V2V based safety applications with a goal of developing a framework for implementing driver-vehicle-interfaces (DVIs) in an environment where applications may be periodically updated. Understanding if drivers have accurate mental models is essential to achieving the desired safety impact.
Track 6 – Vehicle to Vehicle Communications Policy Issues
The key objective of Track 6 is to identify the main V2V policy issues and accomplish coordination with policy issues of the broader connected vehicles program policies. Work activities will be addressed within the Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communications Policy Roadmap with coordination with the V2V program.
Track 7 – Commercial Vehicle Applications
The key objective of this track is to ensure that unique aspects of commercial vehicles that are critical to the successful deployment of V2V are addressed. Once estimates of safety benefits are validated, the safety application will be considered for Commercial Vehicle Operations(CVO) regulation decision.
Track 8 – Transit Vehicle Applications
The KEY objective of this track is to ensure that unique aspects of transit vehicles that are critical to the successful deployment of V2V are addressed. To that end, a comprehensive transit vehicle safety analysis must first be conducted that will support the identification of both V2V and V2I transit safety applications. Once the applications have been identified, a determination will be made regarding which applications to move to prototype development and evaluation.
Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) Communications for Safety
Research Overview
Vehicle-to-infrastructure communications for safety is the wireless exchange of critical safety and operational data between vehicles and highway infrastructure, intended primarily to avoid or mitigate motor vehicle crashes but also to enabe a wide range of other safety, mobility, and environmental benefits. V2I communications apply to all vehicle types and all roads, and transform infrastructure equipment1 into “smart infrastructure” through the incorporation of algorithms that use data exchanged between vehicles and infrastructure elements to perform calculations that recognize high-risk situations in advance, resulting in driver alerts and warnings through specific countermeasures. One particularly important advance is the ability for traffic signal systems to communicate the signal phase and timing (SPAT) information to the vehicle in support of delivering active safety advisories and warnings to drivers. Early implementation of the SPAT application can enable near-term benefits from V2I communications in the form of reduced crashes, which in turn demonstrate benefits that can help accelerate deployment.
The vision of V2I Communications is that a minimum level of infrastructure will be deployed to provide the maximum level of safety and mobility benefits for highway safety and operational efficiency nationwide. Importantly, V2I communications have the potential to resolve an additional 12 percent of crash types not addressed under V2V communications. V2I Communications for Safetyis a key technology in the USDOT’s Connected Vehicles Program, and is complimented by the V2V communications research. While the primary goal is safety, V2I communications are also significant in improving mobility and environment by reducing delays and congestion caused by crashes, enabling wireless roadside inspections, or helping commercial vehicle drivers identify safe areas for parking.
The objectives of the V2I Communiications for Safety research program are fourfold: (1) building from the research results under the prior Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII) program and VII proof-of-concept test, to complete the development and testing of the V2I communications technologies, advanced applications, and standards for national interoperability—in particular, the SPAT capability; (2) to develop a rigorous estimation of safety benefits and develop a regulatory/policy guidance versus market position in support of deployment, (3) to provide tools and information that support infrastructure deployments nationwide, and (4) and to ensure appropriate strategies are implemented for privacy, security, system certification and accessibility, scalability, governance structures, public acceptance, and a sustainable marketplace that can effectively propel deployment.
Because of the great variety of vehicle and infrastructure safety systems now installed and planned for the future, the focus on consistent, widely applicable standards and protocols is critical. Additionally, the research will concentrate on the key FHWA and FMCSA application areas of interest, including intersection safety, run-off-road prevention, speed management, and commercial vehicle enforcement and operations.
Research Questions
The following research questions will be answered by the V2I Communications for Safety Program
- What safety applications are effective and have validated benefits?
- What minimum infrastructure is needed for maximum benefit? (Initial deployment)
- Can SPAT and mapping information be transmitted over a wireless network via a universal architecture?
- What degree of market penetration is required for effectiveness?
- Are there unique applications for specialty vehicles (transit bus, commercial vehicles, light rail, etc)?
Research Approach
V2I Communications for Safety will provide cooperative and communications-based applications designed to assist vehicle operators avoid vehicular crashes. The technologies under investigation will provide a graduated spectrum of safety interfaces from in-vehicle information and advisories to in-vehicle driver warnings of imminent crash scenarios. These interfaces will be based on open standards for all applications. Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) will be used for time critical safety applications.
The V2I communications program is designed to enable the exchange of data over a wireless network which enables each vehicle on-board equipment (OBE), device (e.g. handheld cellular devices, aftermarket portable GPS devices), or roadside equipment (RSE) to perform calculations and issue driver advisories and warnings to avoid or mitigate crashes through specific advanced safety applications. This plan will pursue activities that will validate, assess, and estimate benefits for high value applications and enable national interoperability for the transmission of safety related information exchange (e.g., signal phase and timing data) between roadside equipment (RSE) and/or nearby vehicles. For the commercial vehicle enforcement applications this plan establishes research and demonstration activities to support enforcement regulations and real-time parking information in a wireless environment.
The six (6) V2I Communications for Safety program tracks represent the research work necessary to enable a deployable connected vehicle system, but it does not represent actual implementation of a deployed solution.
Through collaborative research, participation in standards development, and other research efforts, the ITS Program will engage the appropriate parties in a multi-track program that addresses the breadth of technical and non-technical V2I research needs.
Program Tracks
Track 1 – Application Analysis
The key objective of this track is to determine the high value safety applications that will be initially addressed for V2I deployment. This track will analyze crash data to identify, verify, and prioritize applications that should be pursued as part of the V2I research. The following application areas will be the initial focus of the crash analysis:
- Intersection safety
- Run-off-road
- Speed management
- Commercial/transit vehicle enforcement and operations for safety
Track 2 – Prototype Applications
The key objective of Track 2 is to develop and validate prototypes of high value cooperative safety applications that will be field operationally tested in Track 4. Requirements from each application related to positioning, mapping, security, and communications will be used as input to Track 3 – Infrastructure Prototyping Efforts. Prototyped safety applications will undergo integration and testing as part of Track 3.
Track 3 – Infrastructure Communications/Interoperability
The key objective of this track is to provide the critical technological underpinnings that allow safety applications to work at locations throughout the United States of America. Interoperability is critical to the deployment of V2I safety systems and will facilitate national availability and consistency across all connected vehicle applications.
Track 4 –Benefits Assessment
The key objective of this track is to quantify safety benefits that may be realized by deployment of V2I applications. The results of testing will be used to support deployment decisions, policies, and rulemaking.
Track 5 – Deployment Planning
The key objectives of this track are to:
- Identify infrastructure needed to support initial deployment
- Define application effectiveness vs. market penetration for initial set of applications
- Conduct study and assessment on leveraging aftermarket and retrofit opportunities to provide benefits more rapidly.
- Provide tools and guidelines for practitioners to deploy and maintain V2I systems.
Track 6 – Policy
The key objective of this track is to develop policy requirements that may be unique to V2I Communications for Safety applications. The connected vehicle policy roadmap will identify the overall policy and governance issues and the V2I team will give input to the policy team as issues are identified. No funded activities are planned at this time for the V2I program that concern policy related issues
1. Includes highway equipment, systems, and structures (other than vehicles) such as roadside signals (stoplights, warnings, variable message signs, etc.), traffic management centers, weather information systems, or signal phase and timing systems, among others.
