Standardization and Harmonization Activities Towards a Global C-ITS

  • Chapter
Vehicular ad hoc Networks

Abstract

Standardization plays a crucial role in facilitating adoption of a technology while enabling the interoperability between products of different manufacturers. Standardization of intelligent transport systems (ITS) involves stakeholders in different regions. For enabling a globally interoperable ITS system, EU, Japan, and the USA closely work together towards harmonized standards. A compact overview on a consistent set of important standards to build ITS station units for vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) and cooperative-ITS (C-ITS) and, in general for ITS, is provided in this chapter. To a large extent, references are made to standards from CEN, ETSI, IEEE, ISO, and SAE.
