Background
ITU-T
dates
o ITU-T SG16 had developed a lot of standardization
for Multimedia Services/Applications, Systems and
Terminal specifications. By the combination of the
technology component, advanced Multimedia
Services like e-Commerce, e-Health, eGovernment, e-Learning, TDR, etc. have been
appeared. The ICT in Vehicles (Telematics), like
Mobile Office is also the extension of the current.
o Mobile Office should make it easier than ever for
mobile professionals likes salespeople to be
productive anytime, anywhere (Ubiquitous services
and applications ), and with any access method or
device.
o In this presentation, from the ICT in Vehicles
viewpoint, needs of mobile users related to
ubiquitous services and applications are described.

needs drivers have.
Consumers on the road are “Moving Targets”
-Specific destinations, departure time and
allowance for travel time.
-Different objectives and purposes.
-Can’t manipulate OBU like they use PC at
home.
What are the needs of “Moving Targets?
How can we meet them?
Consumers complain about the cost - “Too
expensive to use”
“My specific needs” “situation based ” “just in
time”
Drivers demand increased relevance in
media contact--- new services, new
media and new concept are needed.

New Market
ITU-T
dates
■ The need for the creation of new content mix for
the drivers
- More than 10 million cars equipped with DSRC
and Navigation by 2010:
- Low cost network connectivity and access,
Lower content cost
■ The new opportunities emerge …
- One 2 One information, transaction and communication
services based on time, place and situation
- Most appropriate delivery of services by selecting the
best one among the available modes
- Comprehensive integration of PUSH and PULL channels
■ Necessary conditions
- All devices have the same basic units as standard
OBU and then Greater connectivity can be added to the
devices
- (DSRC+CAR Navigation systems) --- WLAN, browser
phones

Network Technology options
ITU-T
dates
1.Wireless communications over Mobile
Networks (ex.3G)
The most flexible solution and the only one
that supports fully mobile, ‘always-on’
solutions. Data can be pushed from the main
systems to the remote device at any time.
2.Wireless hotpots (WiFi)
Becoming increasingly prevalent appearing in
coffee shops, airports, hotels and motorway
service stations. WiFi is a wireless LAN product
based on IEEE 802.11 specification.
3.Short distant connectivity via docking station
(Bluetooth/Infrared/Wired)
The final approach to mobile solutions is to load
data onto the mobile device, work off-line and
synchronize when available.

Standardization
ITU-T Government takes initiatives in building
infrastructure and most importantly
makes it open to private sectors
- DSRC/VICS format
- Implementation of DSRC format
- Rules of indications on OBU-displays
- Data structures of software for ITS
services for traffic management,
billing and collecting payments,
dispatching information, etc.

Conclusion
o In this document, from the ICT in Vehicles
ITU-T
dates
viewpoint, needs of mobile users related to
ubiquitous services and applications are
described.
o The realization of the Service/Applications in
the vehicles are structured by many players.
o In order to use the services and applications in
this environment seamlessly and interoperable,
contents, devices and database in the network
should be standardized.
o In the wireless access network, wireless LAN,
optical LAN and DSRC-based hot spot-type
communication mode network in addition to
the Cellular Network will be increased.
Therefore it is necessary to realize the
interoperability and connectivity between those
Network and Vehicle devices and between
network systems.
