Intelligent Transport Systems: context


ITS : Intelligent Transport System is a new domain of Telecommunication field
designed for vehicles and oriented in 3 different services corresponding to political
objectives:
Primary
public objective:

reduction of car accidents, providing road operators the
possibility to warn drivers for route hazard or using
communication systems for impact avoidance
V2I
Road safety services (ex stopped vehicle, wrong way
driving, hard braking, speed limits)

Ecological purpose:

transportation and traffic regulation optimized, allowing
reduction of petrol consumption and emissions of green
house effect gases
V2V
V2I
Traffic management services (ex road information, in
vehicle signage, traffic information and route/navigation
guidance)

New market opportunity:

Connection to the internet everywhere on the road depending on radio coverage and
technology used, providing infotainment services for increasing passengers comfort.
Mobility and comfort services for drivers and passengers (ex POI for EV charging, multimodal
Platform information, media downloading, ecologic drive, fleet management, M2M services…)
more generally : Value Added Services

France Telecom Group confidential
POI provided by multimodal platform : features

aggregation/compilation/smart filtering/ of information data to
deliver relevant/easy to use/handle information to vehicle driver
and passengers

introduction of context aware information services to address
population of users (social networks cooperation)

management of information data to deliver geo localized
services to vehicles:
– dissemination of POI to infrastructure and vehicles according to
time and position of ITS stations (relevant and real time
information)
– introduction of increased reality processing to improve accuracy
and performance of service information (ie parking information
with drive queues and paths)
