MANAGEMENT OF EFC THROUGH DSRC

INTEROPERABILITY IN THE ALPINE AREA


Introduction: Scope of Project

Define an interoperable

EFC service for: • Austria• France• Italy• Slovenia• Switzerland

Define the required procedures for the service… for heavy vehicles only (> 3.5 tons)… for central account payment

with a view to extend to other countries


Introduction: Participants

Operators:

Project Office:



Results shall:

directly lead to implementation

be operational for operators

be concise and understandable

be fed into the European process• e.g. Regulatory Committee, Stockholm Group, RCI, CESARE-III

lead to added services to customers



Why only Heavy Vehicles?

The market for international interoperability for light vehicles is too small

The Directive 2004/52/EC of the European Parliament states: “Interoperability for Heavy Vehicles first”

Austria and Switzerland do not have EFC for light vehicles

Issues for Interoperability

Austria: User declaration of No. of axles

France: Several EFC Operators (no cent- ralised organisational structure)

All classes / CARDME in 2006

Italy: Different DSRC technology

Slovenia: Post-pay processes currently under development

CEN DSRC / CARDME in 2006

Switzerland: Tachograph reading to be declared upon entry/exit

User declaration of Trailer Governmental operator / tax


MEDIA Technical Solution

MEDIA can accept technical products (or combinations) that fulfil the MEDIA requirements:

Dual DSRC interface• CEN (CARDME)• Telepass

Mechanism to declare trailer / axles Mechanism to declare distance reading, such as

• Chipcard for LSVA terminal• Keyboard and display on the OBE• Automatic measurement by OBE

Harmonised classification data (incl. license plate) OBE logically bound to vehicle Personalisation interface


MEDIA OBE

MEDIA can accept technical products (or combinations) that fulfil the MEDIA requirements:

Short term (2006)• Existing dual DSRC interface OBU plus LSVA Card

Mid term • MEDIA OBU, dual DSRC interface

with keyboard and display

Long term• EETS OBE (see RCI project)• next generation Swiss OBU• German OBU with Telepass(-interface)• … any product that fulfils the MEDIA requirements

CEN TELEPASS


Contractual Architecture:Roles of the Entities

Transport Service Provider

EFC Operator

Contract Issuer

Payment Service Provider

OBU Issuer

Customer

User = Driver


Contractual Architecture

There is a contractual relationship involving the EFC operators and the Contract Issuers

• Contract Issuer is free in his choice of PSP

The Contract Issuer has to guarantee payment to the EFC operators

Obligations of Contract Issuer and EFC Operator plus rules for the MEDIA EFC Service

Local contract may still be valid, but can also be bound to the MEDIA OBU


Media association contract
