1 Scope
This International Standard supports simple systems for “basic electronic registration identification” (“basic ERI”) for use in intelligent road transport applications.
This International Standard “basic ERI” defines the
-
— specification of a unique vehicle identifier (using an International Standard, or
non-standard, data concept),
-
— “basic ERI” functional capabilities, selectable for different “basic ERI” applications,
-
— minimum data interoperability requirements between basic electronic registration tags (ERTs) and electronic registration readers (ERRs).
This International Standard allows, but does not require, vehicle-related data storage
in addition to the unique vehicle identifier.
This International Standard is consistent with the ERI architecture defined in ISO/TS 24534‑1 and data concepts defined in ISO/TS 24534‑3, but is not necessarily interoperable with the more capable and “fully featured”
ERI communication systems to be defined in ISO/TS 24534‑4 or ISO/TS 24534‑5.
This International Standard defines a “basic ERI” system with security adequate for information that is currently available manually
(such as license plate and/or VIN data) but it does not purport to provide the high
levels of security required for some administrative requirements. Those requiring
high security are advised to follow the relevant parts of ISO/TS 24534.
Although not part of this International Standard, the employed technologies supporting
this International Standard may enable additional non-standard security measures to
be added for specific applications.
NOTE The “basic ERI” system implies the use of a basic ERT. Interrogators may or may not support both ISO/TS 24534‑4 or ISO/TS 24534‑5 and this International Standard, this being a commercial and not a standardization
decision.
It is not the purpose of this International Standard to define “basic ERI” applications.
This International Standard requires the use of an air interface communication that
complies with an international, regional, or national standard whose protocols are
publicly defined and available in that standard, but this International Standard does
not define such an air interface, nor specify which standard air interface is used
for any particular implementation.
This International Standard limits its scope to
-
— the requirement that a standard air interface with publicly available protocols is
used,
-
— the use of data concepts consistent with ISO/TS 24534‑3,
-
— the ability to additionally use private data concepts.
