BS EN 15213-3:2013

What is BS EN 15213-3 - ATSVR - System interface and requirements for short-range communication about? 

BS EN 15213-3 is the third part of the multiple series that is applicable to intelligent transport systems. 

BS EN 15213-3 focuses on Short Range (SR) Interface/Systems Requirements. SR systems use an interface that allows Detection Equipment to operate some ATSVR functions in the direct line of sight of vehicles. 

Note 1: Standards for Automatic Vehicle Identification (AVI) and Automatic Equipment Identification (AEI) are being developed by CEN/TC 278/WG 12 in parallel with ISO/TC 204/WG 4. BS EN 15213-3 specification does not prejudice those standards and does not seek to establish parameters for future AVI/AEI standards. DSRC and AVI Standards are seen as basic technology blocks for types of short-range ATSVR. 

Note 2: Data elements such as times, dates, or geographical coordinates need not be transmitted because the ATSVR consists of various equipment elements that communicate and interact through various interfaces in accordance with standard procedures and protocols facilitating the recovery of stolen vehicles. These processes may involve a human operator. 

Note 3: BS EN 15213-3 does not seek to define the requirements or actions of the various human elements of the ATSVR, but it does aim to identify the interactions and interfaces that exist amongst the equipment and human elements operating within the system. 

Who is BS EN 15213-3 - ATSVR -  System interface and requirements for short-range communication for? 

BS EN 15213-3 on intelligent transport systems is useful for: 

• Transport manufactures 
• Freight carriers 
• ATSVR Architecture 
• Shipping companies 
• Warehouses 
• Intelligent transport authorities 

Why should you use BS EN 15213-3 - ATSVR -  System interface and requirements for short-range communication? 

For Short Range Communications, where there is very little time available for the transfer of data between passing vehicles and detection equipment, only a subset of the message elements described in BS EN 15213-3 can be transmitted. Therefore, in these cases, the data lengths are reduced to an absolute minimum. 

BS EN 15213-3 describes the structure, bit arrangements, number representation and coding of message elements that are typically transmitted as data. Also, ATSVR elements include the OBE installed in the vehicles, a range of Detecting Equipment and one or more System Operating Centres. One or more supporting Infrastructure Networks provides communications that will help to support the ATSVR. The ATSVR location function also includes one or more supporting Position Reference Sources. 

Overall, you can use BS EN 15213-3 to enable the recovery of vehicles, detection of offenders and a reduction in crime.
