Introduction to ITS
What is ITS?
Intelligent Transport Systems – is the integration of information and communications technology with transport infrastructure, vehicles and users.
By sharing information, ITS allows people to get more from transport networks, in greater safety, efficiency, security and with less impact on the environment.
Introduction to ITS
Introduction to ITSITS for SafetyMore than 40,000 people die on Europe’s roads each year, costing €200
billion.• ITS can detect hazards on the road ahead and inform drivers before they
are visible; • ITS keep vehicles at a safe distance from one another• ITS inform drivers of the local conditions by constant communication and
information exchange between vehicles and the infrastructure
ITS can save lives and reduce the congestion caused by accidents.
Introduction to ITSITS for EfficiencyCongestion costs the EU 1% of its GDP – around €100 billion – each year.• With funding and space for large-scale road building becoming
increasingly scarce, ITS is the solutions to ease congestion. • Dynamic traffic signal control, advanced incident detection and variable
message sign systems are already being used across Europe.• ITS deliver to vehicles real-time traffic information to enable on-board
navigation systems to decide the optimum route.
Introduction to ITSITS for Efficiency• ITS give public transport users real-time service information, and
smart and seamless ticketing. • ITS enable freight operators and customs authorities to share
information and provide information on the most efficient routes.
Introduction to ITS
ITS for Personal Safety and Public Security
• ITS provide vehicle anti-theft systems to prevent vehicles from being stolen or quickly recover stolen vehicles.
• Intelligent Vision Systems can automatically spot suspicious behaviour at transport hubs and in public transport
• Automatic tracking and alarm systems can speed the response to threats.
Introduction to ITSITS for EnvironmentTransport accounts for 30% of total energy consumption in the EU.• The vast majority of this energy is still consumed by road transport.• ITS can improve the efficiency of passenger and goods transport
and ease congestion on the network, reducing greenhouse emissions and air pollution.
• ITS can increase quality and comfort level of public transport to encourage use of public transport and cut use of private cars.
• ITS can enable drivers and vehicles to operate more efficiently.
Location based ServicesSatellite navigation plays an important role in
many ITS services
Knowing positioning of vehicles, cargos and travellers• Navigation for vehicles and pedestrians• Satellite navigation for fleet management• Satellite navigation for traveller information (positioning-based
information)• Satellite navigation for traffic data collection
Location based Services
Navigation for vehicles and pedestrians
Location based ServicesSatellite Navigation for traffic data collection: Floating vehicle data
Location based Services
Vehicle tracking and monitoring: eCall
Location based Services
Anti-theft Systems
• Automatically report a vehicle being stolen
• Continuously report positioning of the vehicle
• Might be able to remotely slow or stop the vehicle
Communication in ITSNavigation & Communication
Communication in ITS• The majority of ITS applications and services require one
or two way communication.• Currently the communication relies on terrestrial
network: – Radio broadcasting– GSM/ GPRS– WiFi/ WiMAX
Communication in ITSRadio Broadcasting: RDS-TMC
Each traffic incident is sent as a Traffic Message. One message consists of time, an event code and a location code. The message is coded according to the standard which can be translated by a TMC receiver into the language of the user. The source of traffic information is typically police, traffic cameras, loops, floating vehicle data and others.
Communication in ITSGSM/GPRS: German HGV road user charging
• Distance-based toll for all trucks of 12 tonnes and over• 700m investment• Complex system but without disruption of traffic• OBU for positioning, monitoring and billing• GSM is used to authorise payment• Infrared DSRC for enforcement
Communication in ITS• Communication plays an important role in ITS• Currently communication relies on terrestrial
communication only. • Alternative communication solution?

Application of Satellite Communication in ITS
Application of Satellite Communication in US
• Receiving traffic information via satellite radio• Vehicle Tracking• Automatic Crash Response• Remote Vehicle Diagnostics

Application of Satellite Communication in ITS
In Europe:
• Satcom is not yet deployed in ITS• This is no satellite radio broadcasting• Benefits have not been fully understood• Cost is the main concern• Still in research stage
25
Applications of Satcom in ITS
Satcoms in support of transport on European roads
• FP6 Project• SISTER is to establish how satellite communications can be used as
part of the operational implementation of ITS applications.• SISTER does not perform research into the development of NEW
applications but will investigate how the operation of satellite affects the operation of such services.
