Transport industry from the side of standardization

IMG_9239.JPG

The transport industry is one of the largest in our time. Since the complex of this industry contains many subcategories, it is also regulated at different levels. International standards are created both to categorize global concepts and systems, and to regulate certain aspects of the functioning of the system and even individual details. Sometimes there are problems in the collaboration of organizations at the international level, which is why it is so important to be aware of the main regulatory legal acts that will open an easy and transparent way of development in the global market in this industry.

Each standard includes separate parts that describe in more detail the subcategories of the general subject matter of the standard. If your organization or company comes into contact with public transport, we recommend that you familiarize yourself in more detail with the CEN / TS 13149: 2020 standard. Each part of it describes related categories of the field of public transport, but since the industry is divided into separate sectors, each document specializes in more detailed technical parameters necessary to regulate each separate area of ​​activity.

Public transport - Road vehicle scheduling and control systems - Part 7: System and network architecture

CEN/TS 13149-7:2020

This document specifies the general rules for an on-board data communication system between the different systems that may be used within public transport vehicles, based on the Internet Protocol (IPv4, [3] and IPv6, [4]). This includes operational support systems, passenger information systems, fare collection systems, etc. This document describes: -   the requirements for an on board IP network; -   the overview architecture and components for an IP based on-board network; -   the modular structure of the network architecture; -   the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) approach, and approach to defining services. Systems directly related to the safe operation of the vehicle (including propulsion management, brake systems, door opening systems) are excluded from the scope of this document and are dealt with in other standardization bodies. However, the architecture described in this document may be used for support services such as safety information messages. Interfaces to safety-critical systems should be provided through dedicated gateways with appropriate security provisions; for the purposes of this document, these are regarded as simply external information sources. This document is designed primarily for vehicles with a fixed primary structure, where networks can be installed on a permanent basis and the system configuration task consists largely of the integration, adjustment or removal of the functional end systems that produce and/or consume data. Public transport vehicles consisting of units linked temporarily for operational purposes (specifically, trains in which individual engines, cars or consists are routinely connected and disconnected) require additional mechanisms to enable the communications network itself to reconfigure. Such mechanisms are provided through other standards, notably the IEC 61375 series.

Public transport - Road vehicle scheduling and control systems - Part 9: Time service

CEN/TS 13149-9:2020

The CEN 13149 series of products concerns on-board data communication systems on public transport vehicles. This series provides for data services that enable open and managed sharing of relevant information. This document, being Part 9 of the series, specifies a time publication, enabling all on-vehicle services to share a common understanding of current time, based on a suitable agreed master network clock. It covers: -   the functional scope, i.e. which data the service provides, why, when and how often. -   the transport protocol, i.e. how the data are transmitted. -   the service publication, i.e. how the service can be found by other modules or applications -   the structure of the data, i.e. how the data are structured and how the data elements are named. This document implements the service framework described in CEN/TS 13149-7.

Public transport - Road vehicle scheduling and control systems - Part 10: Location service

CEN/TS 13149-10:2020

The CEN 13149 series of products concerns on-board data communication systems on public transport vehicles. This series provides for data services that enable open and managed sharing of relevant information. This document, being Part 10 of the series, specifies a location publication, enabling all on-vehicle services to share a common understanding of the location and orientation of the vehicle, based on inputs taken from global navigational satellite systems (GNSS) such as GPS and Galileo. It covers: -   the functional scope, i.e. which data the service provides, why, when and how often; -   the transport protocol, i.e. how the data are transmitted; -   the service publication, i.e. how the service can be found by other modules or applications; -   the structure of the data, i.e. how the data are structured and how the data elements are named. This document implements the service framework described in CEN/TS 13149 7.

Public transport - Road vehicle scheduling and control systems - Part 11: Location service

CEN/TS 13149-11:2020

The CEN 13149 series of products concerns on-board data communication systems on public transport vehicles. This series provides for data services that enable open and managed sharing of relevant information. This document, being Part 11 of the series, specifies a publication service for data provided by the vehicle platform, enabling all on-vehicle services to share a common understanding of the operational activity of the vehicle, based on inputs taken from chassis systems such as the J1939 CAN bus. It covers: -   the functional scope, i.e. which data the service provides, why, when and how often. -   the transport protocol, i.e. how the data are transmitted. -   the service publication, i.e. how the service can be found by other modules or applications -   the structure of the data, i.e. how the data are structured and how the data elements are named. This document implements the service framework described in CEN/TS 13149-7.

Intelligent transport systems - ESafety - ECall minimum set of data

EN 15722:2020

The transport industry also uses artificial intelligence and is more and more active every year. But since innovative additions all in general can create a gap in the level of development of individual parts of the whole complex, even for this category such standards as EN 15722: 2020 are created. This document specifies the standard data concepts that comprise the "Minimum Set of Data" (MSD) to be transferred from a vehicle to a 'Public Safety Answering Point' (PSAP) in the event of a crash or emergency via an 'eCall' communication transaction. Optional additional data concepts may also be transferred as part of the MSD. The communications media protocols and methods for the transmission of the eCall message are not specified in this document. If you have any additional questions about this standard, you can familiarize yourself with its characteristics in more detail by the link attached at the top.

Intelligent transport systems - ESafety - eCall OAD for multiple Optional Additional Datasets

EN 17358:2020

Another standard that specializes in regulating the implementation of intelligent systems in the transport industry is EN 17358: 2020. This document defines an additional data concept that may be transferred as an ‘optional additional data concept’ as defined in EN 15722, eCall MSD, that may be transferred from a vehicle to a PSAP in the event of a crash or emergency via an eCall communication session. The purpose of this document is simply to enable the existing MSD to house multiple OADs. This is achieved by providing a short optional additional data concept, which facilitates the inclusion of multiple additional data sets within the currently defined MSD of 140 bytes (Every OAD still requires its own specification). This document can be seen as an addendum to EN 15722; it contains as little redundancy as possible. NOTE 1   The communications media protocols and methods for the transmission of the eCall message are not specified in this document. NOTE 2   Additional data concepts can also be transferred, and it is advised to register any such data concepts using a data registry as defined in EN ISO 24978. Since this document has a certain number of amendments and refinements, we recommend that you discuss in more detail the compliance of its activities with your company with a team of professionals in the field of standardization.

Transport systems require a structured management approach

The action of any organization and company operating in the transport technology market is constantly in contact with changes in the field of innovation. That is why it is so important to stay up to date with the latest updates in this market. Time does not stand still, and the transformations taking place in the world markets in one way or another affect the activities of each company. In order to remain in the leading position, it is necessary to have a stable base of norms and standards, which will become the key to stable development and minimization of possible risks when entering international markets.
