  1. MANAGEMENT OF EFC THROUGH DSRC INTEROPERABILITY IN THE ALPINE AREA 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  2. Introduction: Scope of Project • Define an interoperableEFC service for: • Austria • France • Italy • Slovenia • Switzerland • Define the required procedures for the service … for heavy vehicles only (> 3.5 tons) … for central account payment with a view to extend toother countries 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  3. Introduction: Participants Operators: Project Office: 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  4. Introduction: Scope of Project Results shall: • directly lead to implementation • be operational for operators • be concise and understandable • be fed into the European process • e.g. Regulatory Committee, Stockholm Group, RCI, CESARE-III • lead to added services to customers 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  5. Introduction: Scope of Project Why only Heavy Vehicles? • The market for international interoperability for light vehicles is too small • The Directive 2004/52/EC of the European Parliament states: “Interoperability for Heavy Vehicles first” • Austria and Switzerland do not have EFC for light vehicles 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  6. Contents of the Presentation • Existing systems • MEDIA technical solution • MEDIA contractual architecture • Outlook 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  7. Systems: Austria • Subject: Vehicles > 3.5 tons • Infrastructure: Motorways Open system • Tariffication: Per (motorway) kilometre, tariff depends on vehicle class declared characteristics • Technology: Multi-lane free-flow Mandatory OBU CEN 5.8 GHz DSRC (CARDME) • EFC Operator: state owned operating company • Contract Issuer: ident EFC Operator 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  8. Systems: France • Subject: All vehicles (Trucks from 2006) • Infrastructure: Motorways, bridges, tunnels Closed & open system • Tariffication: Per (motorway) kilometre, tariff depends on vehicle class measured characteristics • Technology: Single ETC lane Voluntary OBU CEN 5.8 GHz DSRC (TIS)(CARDME from 2006) • EFC Operator: 13 concessionaires (private/public) • Contract Issuer: 8 companies 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  9. Systems: Italy • Subject: All vehicles • Infrastructure: Motorways Closed & open system • Tariffication: Per (motorway) kilometre, tariff depends on vehicle class measured characteristics • Technology: Single ETC lane Voluntary OBU UNI 5.8 GHz DSRC (UNI) • EFC Operator: 24 concessionaires (private/public) • Contract Issuer: 1 company 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  10. Systems: Slovenia • Subject: All vehicles • Infrastructure: Motorways Open & closed system • Tariffication: Per (motorway) kilometre, tariff depends on vehicle class measured characteristics • Technology: Single ETC lane Voluntary OBU CEN 5.8 GHz DSRC (CARDME) (introduction in 2006, currently 2.45GHz) • EFC Operator: state owned operating company • Contract Issuer: ident EFC Operator 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  11. Systems: Switzerland • Subject: Vehicles > 3.5 tons • Infrastructure: All public roads kilometre charging system • Tariffication: per kilometre and per ton MLW, emission-dependent declared characteristics • Technology: Tachograph / Odometer CEN 5.8 GHz DSRC plus supported by GPS and Chipcard • EFC Operator: Swiss Customs Authority • Contract Issuer: ident EFC Operator (“Contract”) 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  12. Issues for Interoperability • Austria: User declaration of No. of axles • France:Several EFC Operators (no cent- ralised organisational structure) All classes / CARDME in 2006 • Italy:Different DSRC technology • Slovenia:Post-pay processes currently under development CEN DSRC / CARDME in 2006 • Switzerland:Tachograph reading to be declared upon entry/exit User declaration of TrailerGovernmental operator / tax 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  13. MEDIA Technical Solution MEDIA can accept technical products (or combinations) that fulfil the MEDIA requirements: • Dual DSRC interface • CEN (CARDME) • Telepass • Mechanism to declare trailer / axles • Mechanism to declare distance reading, such as • Chipcard for LSVA terminal • Keyboard and display on the OBE • Automatic measurement by OBE • Harmonised classification data (incl. license plate) • OBE logically bound to vehicle • Personalisation interface 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  14. CEN TELEPASS MEDIA OBE MEDIA can accept technical products (or combinations) that fulfil the MEDIA requirements: • Short term (2006) • Existing dual DSRC interface OBU plus LSVA Card • Mid term • MEDIA OBU, dual DSRC interfacewith keyboard and display • Long term • EETS OBE (see RCI project) • next generation Swiss OBU • German OBU with Telepass(-interface) • … any product that fulfils the MEDIA requirements 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  15. Contractual Architecture:Roles of the Entities • Transport Service Provider • EFC Operator • Contract Issuer • Payment Service Provider • OBU Issuer • Customer • User = Driver 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  16. Contractual Architecture • There is a contractual relationship involving the EFC operators and the Contract Issuers • Contract Issuer is free in his choice of PSP • The Contract Issuer has to guarantee payment to the EFC operators • Obligations of Contract Issuer and EFC Operator plus rules for the MEDIA EFC Service • Local contract may still be valid, but can also be bound to the MEDIA OBU 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability

  18. Outlook • Finalisation of project in February 2005 Outlining specification of • Contracts • Processes • Technical solution Report will be openly available at the project office in March (www.rapp.ch) • Operators are committed to introduce the MEDIA service as soon as possible • Intention to start implementation project immediately • MEDIA shall be available in by mid 2006 • MEDIA is open to extension to other operators and countries 67.007.0 Alpine Interoperability
