In respect of operating requirements specified in EN 16072, this document specifies adaptations to enable the provision of eCall for powered two-wheel vehicles.

As with the existing provisions for eCall for category M1/N1 vehicles, these are specified within the paradigm of being OEM-fit equipment supplied with new vehicles.

This document includes only the requirements for category L1 and L3 P2WV (vehicle based) with the exception of L1e-A (powered cycle), although other documents can subject other ‘L’ subcategories to use this document. Other documents can be prepared for other UNECE category ‘L’ variants.

The requirements herein relate only to the provision of pan-European eCall and does not provide requirements for third party service provision of eCall. Other than in the 112-eCall using IMS over packet switched networks paradigm, which involves a direct call from the vehicle to the most appropriate PSAP, third party service provision involves the support of an intermediary third-party service provider before the call is forwarded to the PSAP.

The provision of eCall for vehicles via the aftermarket (post sales and registration), and the operational requirements for any such aftermarket solution, will be the subject of other work.
