  1. Commercial Motor Vehicle ConnectivityV2I Communications & Safety Pilot Participation Cem Hatipoglu, PhDTransportation Specialist, FMCSA, Technology Division 1/19/2010 Place Talking Freight

  2. Overview • Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) concept • V2I opportunities • Safety Pilot (SP) • Commercial Motor Vehicle (CMV) participation plans in the SP This presentation is a basic introduction to the subject matter.

  3. V2V versus V2I • V2V : vehicles talk to each other • V2I : vehicles talk to Infrastructure (Roadside, bridges, speed or curvature warning signs, traffic lights, railroad crossings, etc) V2V/V2I Communication mechanism is the same.

  4. V2V and V2I at work Connectivity has major safety potential.

  5. Wireless Communications • Numerous mechanisms exist (satellite, cellular, bluetooth, Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC), etc). DSRC enables a new set of exciting possibilities • V2V and V2I are based on three core functions • Identification of the “Relevant Information” to exchange, • Communication of that information with other vehicles and the infrastructure, • Performance of safety functions using rich data Improved Safety, Mobility, Efficiency through secure wireless communications

  6. V2I is not new • Trucks have long history of leading V2I research and deployment • Multi-modal efforts have been ongoing for years under CVII and other ITS Research topics • DSRC framework enables new functions and expands the scope of V2I vision DOT and Trucking Industry started leveraging V2I connectivity long before the recent emphasis

  7. Sample V2I applications • V2I for Safety, Security, Roadside • Smart Roadside • Wireless Roadside Inspection • Universal Truck Identification • Virtual Weigh Station/Electronic Screening • Truck Parking • Electronic credentialing • Retarder disable in zones • Border crossing inspection automation • Truck restricted road/lane warning V2I for Crash Relevant • Road curvature warning • Low-clearance bridge warning • Intersection safety • High Road Grade/Brake fade warning • Speed limit warning Roadside and other new Safety initiatives are streamlined via common wireless connectivity

  8. What is next • Numerous DOT research and development efforts ongoing to make V2I and V2V become a reality sooner than they would on their own • NHTSA has 2013/2014 timeline for regulatory decision on DSRC based technologies • A large-scale Safety Pilot Test planned in 2012 Trucks are a part of Regulatory Decision activities and participate in all V2V and V2I efforts

  9. Safety Pilot Objectives • Support NHTSA 2013 Regulatory V2V Decision with Field Data (2014 for Trucks) • Support and test real world V2V and V2I implementations within a data rich environment • Create Public Awareness & Acceptance • Safety Pilot Environment: • Mixed traffic, but consists of a dense concentration of LVs, CMVs, TVs, and RSEs with DSRC enabling technologies Safety Pilot location will be selected in 2011. Procurement activities are underway.

  10. Commercial Motor Vehicles in SP • Multi-modal effort: FHWA, FMCSA, NHTSA, RITA • The SP plans include 61 CMVs and 3000 total vehicles • Without proper sized CMV involvement, the results would be inconclusive for all vehicle types • CMVs pose unique challenges to the vehicle network • Long, tall, heavy and they vary in all dimensions during operation • 3 integrated trucks with safety applications • 8 trucks with retrofit kits • 50 Here-I-Am (HIA) vehicles Truck team is very proactive in SP design
