Intelligent transport systems - Cooperative systems - Contextual speeds (ISO/TS 17426:2016)

Delivering contextual speeds to road users can improve road safety, support traffic management and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
In a co-operative ITS environment, contextual speeds are context-dependent (e.g. weather conditions), as well as time-specific and road section-specific authorized speeds. Subject to local regulations, they may be regulatory speed limits and/or recommended advisory ones.
This document will define and characterize "contextual speeds" in detail, with use cases. It will also specify the general service requirements for the support of this feature and provide recommendations for the definition of application profiles.

Inteligentni transportni sistemi - Kooperativni sistemi - Kontekstualne hitrosti (ISO/TS 17426:2016)

Z zagotavljanjem kontekstualnih hitrosti uporabnikom cest se lahko izboljša cestna varnost, omogoči podpora za upravljanje prometa in zmanjšajo emisije toplogrednih plinov. V skupnem okolju ITS so kontekstualne hitrosti odvisne od konteksta (npr. vremenskih pogojev) ter dovoljenih hitrosti glede na čas vožnje in cestni odsek. To so lahko predpisane in/ali priporočene omejitve hitrosti, za katere veljajo lokalni predpisi. Ta dokument podrobno določa in opredeljuje »kontekstualne hitrosti«, vključno s primeri uporabe. Določa tudi splošne storitvene zahteve za podporo te funkcije in podaja priporočila za definicijo profilov uporabe.

ISO/TS 17426:2016(E)

Introduction
Traditional fixed speed limits have, in general, been set as the maximum mandatory speed that a
vehicle or a category of vehicles can travel at. Such speed limits are defined by the competent authority.
Some national authorities moderate mandatory speed limits when road or environment conditions
change. When road or environmental conditions change, the decision as to the most appropriate speed
a driver or rider should travel is, in general, left up to the individual vehicle driver. With the advent of
Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), it has become possible to provide better guidance to
vehicle drivers on what speed they should travel at when road, traffic, or environmental conditions are
less than ideal. This function is known as Contextual Speed Information Service.
Delivering Contextual Speed information to road users can improve road safety, support traffic
management, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
In a Cooperative ITS environment, Contextual Speeds are context-dependent (e.g. changed due
to weather conditions), as well as time-specific and road section-specific speeds. Subject to local
regulations, they can be mandatory speed limits or advisory speeds.
All Cooperative ITS Services follow the same abstract structure of detection (of an event) including pre-
processing of the detected content, execution of the Service algorithm (processing of detected content)
and presentation or utilization of the Service result. Figure 1 summarizes and further illustrates this
process.
Content processing
Detection
Info service generation
Info service presentation
Figure 1 — General Cooperative ITS Service process (from ISO/TS 17427:2014, Figure A.6)
Based on this abstract process description, for any Cooperative ITS Service, a similar process description
applies to the Contextual Speed Information Service. Every single step in the process chain can be
executed by different actors or stakeholders. Execution of process elements by different stakeholders
results in a large number of possible potential scenarios. Additionally, the involvement of stakeholders
can be distinguished by spatial geography.
Assuming that there are two main stakeholder groups in Cooperative ITS, namely the Infrastructure
and the Vehicle, multiple combinations are possible, as every step can be delivered by a different
stakeholder group (see Figure 2).

ISO/TS 17426:2016(E)

The scenarios address different combinations; the basis for every scenario is one specific combination.
This Technical Specification addresses the scenario where detection, content pre-processing, and
information service generation is the responsibility of the infrastructure stakeholder. The direct
presentation of Contextual Speed information on the driver interface of the vehicle is out of the scope
of this Technical Specification. This Technical Specification therefore addresses only part of the whole
process (Scenario 7).
Within the context of Scenario 7, this Technical Specification addresses Use Case 1 “Provision of
mandatory speed limit information into vehicle – for driver awareness purposes” and Use Case 2
“Provision of advisory speed information into vehicle – for driver awareness purposes”.
This does not preclude other Use Cases or deployment models in later Technical Specification(s).

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION ISO/TS 17426:2016(E)
Intelligent transport systems — Cooperative systems —
Contextual speeds
1 Scope
This Technical Specification
— specifies the Contextual Speed Information Service, namely the general requirements regarding the
provision of the Contextual Speed Information Service, the data flow supporting the service, and
the presentation of the service result,
— specifies the requirements to be fulfilled by the Contextual Speed Information Service,
— specifies the ITS Station (ITS-S) application processes of the vehicle ITS station, roadside ITS station,
central ITS station, and personal ITS station that are required to instantiate the Contextual Speed
Information Service,
— specifies sets of communication requirements and objectives (profiles) using the methods defined
in ISO 17423 to select the level of performance (best effort or real-time, etc.), confidence and security
(authentication, encryption, etc.) for each Contextual Speed Information Service communication
flow between ITS stations,
— selects relevant functions and procedures provided by the ITS station facilities layer (see
ISO 17429), and
— specifies messages, messages sets structure, content, and syntax to be used by the Contextual Speed
Information Service.
This Technical Specification considers the scenario for the transmission of Contextual Speed
information from the infrastructure/roadside to the vehicle, for onward presentation to the vehicle’s
driver. This scenario foresees that the calculation of Contextual Speed information is performed on the
Infrastructure side, not within the vehicle.
Mandatory speed limits or advisory speed recommendations are output of the Contextual Speed
Information Service which (in the scenario considered in this Technical Specification) is run by the
Road Operator in its Traffic Control Centre or comparable infrastructure (e.g. Roadside ITS Station). To
transfer this information to the vehicle (and therefore the driver) over the air (wireless communication),
defined messages are required. These messages are specified in this Technical Specification.
When Contextual Speed information arrives in the vehicle, further pre-processing might be necessary
before the Contextual Speed information, and, if available, additional explanations on speed limits
or recommendations, can be presented to the driver. This Technical Specification specifies the
requirements that need to be fulfilled when processing the messages. It does not specify how the vehicle
handles the incoming messages.
The production of information supporting this application, its qualification and its relevance are out of
the scope of this Technical Specification.
This Technical Specification addresses Use Case 1 “Provision of mandatory speed limit information into
vehicle – for driver awareness purposes” and Use Case 2 “Provision of advisory speed information into
vehicle – for driver awareness purposes”.

6 Contextual Speeds: Architecture
The architecture of the ITS station (ITS-S) specified in ISO 21217 is illustrated in Figure 3.
Figure 3 — Simplified ITS-S reference architecture (from ISO 21217)
The Contextual Speed Information Service is provided to users by execution of the Contextual Speed
Application. The Contextual Speed Application is an instantiation of the Contextual Speed Information
Service that involves the association of complementary ITS-S application processes.
In order to be able to install and execute these ITS-S application processes in an ITS station unit (ITS-
SU) operated as a Bounded Secured Managed Domain (BSMD) specified in ISO 21217, registration
procedures identified in ISO/TS 17419 shall be applied.
The Contextual Speed Application requires communications between these ITS-S application
processes residing in ITS station units. Such communications include the exchange of Contextual Speed
Messages (CSM).
In order to enable communications between ITS-S application processes residing in different ITS
Station Communication Units (ITS-SCU) prior to transmission of application data units (ADUs), each
ITS-S application process has to register at the ITS-S management and present its communication
requirements as specified in ISO/TS 17423. Required values to be presented for the ITS-S application
processes of the Contextual Speed Application are specified in Clause 11.
Upon this registration and presentation of communication requirements, the ITS-S management will
identify the most appropriate communication profile for each source of data and assign a “FlowID” to it
as specified in ISO 24102-6.
Communications requires features of the ITS-S facilities layer both for transmission and for reception
of ADUs as specified in ISO/TS 17429.
The Contextual Speed Application requires that their related ITS-S application processes provide
received geo-referenced and time-stamped information to a Local Dynamic Map (LDM) specified in
ISO/TS 18750. The LDM is the key element to enable cooperative behaviour in an ITS-SU, i.e. the sharing
of data between applications.

---------------------- Page: 16 ----------------------

SIST-TS CEN ISO/TS 17426:2016
ISO/TS 17426:2016(E)

The Contextual Speed Application requires retrieving LDM data elements either by a subscription
mechanism or by a query mechanism.
The Contextual Speed Application is uniquely identified by the registered “ITS Application Identifier”
(ITS-AID) specified in ISO/TS 17419.
NOTE Contextual Speed Application uses predefined messages from the ITS Message Set as uniquely
identified by the registered “ITS Message Set Identifier” (ITS-MsgSetID) specified in ISO/TS 17419. The values of
ITS-AID and ITS-MsgSetID will be assigned by the respective registration authority. The numbering of messages
in this ITS Message Set is as uniquely defined for this ITS Message Set.
7 Contextual speeds: Use cases
7.1 General
The Contextual Speed Information Service is provided to users by execution of the Contextual Speed
Application. The Contextual Speed Application provides information from a sending ITS station to an
ITS station in a vehicle. The sending ITS station is typically a roadside or a central ITS station. The
ITS station in a vehicle may either be a vehicle ITS station or a personal ITS station. The information
supported by the Contextual Speed Application concerns either static or dynamic advisory speed
guidance or mandatory speed limits. This information is typically provided by road/traffic managers
or authorized service providers to drivers in order to improve the road safety, reduce environmental
impact, and enhance the traffic flow.
NOTE 1 Traditionally, much of this information is available on fixed plate road traffic signs or variable displays
at the roadside or mounted above or to the side of specific lanes.
As an element of the Contextual Speed Information Service is the ability to transfer and use information
from an external environment into the vehicle for subsequent presentation, it is essential that the
service provides stable, robust, and reproducible results given a specified input condition especially in
respect of mandatory speed limits.
Furthermore, some basic safety and legal constraints are necessary, such that advisory speed outputs
shall never exceed the maximum mandatory speed limit (for the vehicle class, driver qualifications and
other legally enforceable conditions that may apply) for defined identifiable sections of road. Similarly,
the
