ISO/TR 21186-2 is the second part of an international standard that covers cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITS).
ISO/TR 21186-2 specifies the technicalities such as terms, definitions, symbols, motivations for hybrid communications support, the ITS station architecture and functionalities in support of hybrid communications, how to develop ITS application standards.
ISO/TR 21186-2 serves as a guideline explaining the concept of hybrid communications. It supports functionalities for Cooperative ITS services deployed in conformance with the ITS station architecture and related Cooperative ITS standards.
ISO/TR 21186-2 on Cooperative intelligent transport systems is useful for:
The whole set of standards for deployment of C-ITS is difficult to understand by developers of equipment and software, especially ITS application software, thus, guidelines explaining a beneficial choice of standards (C-ITS Release) are very much needed. The purpose and interaction of standardized features, beneficial implementation approaches, and guidance in developing ITS applications are also a prerequisite for a fair and open market allowing early deployment of interoperable and future-proof solutions.
The purpose of ISO/TR 21186-2 is thus to inform about relevant standards and to describe the functionalities of the ITS station architecture defined in support for hybrid communication technologies.
ISO/TR 21186-2 is intended to serve as a guideline to structure the development of new C-ITS standards and to harmonize the deployment of C-ITS services relying on the use of hybrid communication technologies.
ISO/TR 21186-2 also intends to give support to the developers of standards defining C-ITS services and to the developers of C-ITS solutions and ITS applications complying with the ITS station architecture and its set of functionalities supporting hybrid communications.
