Regional Airport/Port Authority Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment - Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment Functionality

Subsystem Description

'Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment' (CV RSE) represents the Connected Vehicle roadside devices that are used to send messages to, and receive messages from, nearby vehicles using Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) or other alternative wireless communications technologies. Communications with adjacent field equipment and back office centers that monitor and control the RSE are also supported. This device operates from a fixed position and may be permanently deployed or a portable device that is located temporarily in the vicinity of a traffic incident, road construction, or a special event. It includes a processor, data storage, and communications capabilities that support secure communications with passing vehicles, other field equipment, and centers.

Functional Object: RSE Parking Management

'RSE Parking Management' monitors the basic safety messages generated by connected vehicles to detect vehicles parking and maintain and report spaces that are occupied by connected vehicles. It also uses short range communications to provide parking information to vehicles.

Functional Object: RSE Road Closure Management

'RSE Road Closure Management' communicates with qualified Connected Vehicles and barrier control systems to support local road closure management. It validates and requests implementation of road closure requests. During a closure, it can also support selective access to the closed area, only granting entry permission to allowed vehicles.

Functional Object: RSE Transit User Guidance

'RSE Transit User Guidance' uses short range communications to provide terminal or stop–specific guidance to transit user devices that assists users in finding the right stop and the right bus. Optionally, this object can collect the transit user location and planned itinerary so that tailored guidance can be provided.
