Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 17263 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee
CEN/TC 278, Road transport and traffic telematics, in collaboration with Technical Committee ISO/TC 204,
Intelligent transport systems,in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and
CEN (Vienna Agreement).
ISO 17263 cancels and replaces ISO/TS 17263:2003, which has been technically revised.

ISO 17263:2012(E)
Introduction
This International Standard specifies parameters for a system for the automatic identification of equipment,
vehicles and items (AEI) used in intermodal transport chains. This International Standard is designed to enable
users and suppliers of AEI systems to specify or use a system or components of a system that will enable
interoperability. Such systems are designed to read and transfer the identity and some further important data of
equipment, vehicles and items used in intermodal transport to other partners in each possible transport chain
to minimize the expenditure and to automate the process of transport observation and control. This standard is
a part of a family of standards for that purpose.
AEI systems are necessary as a basic tool for RTTT/TICS applications in intermodal transport operation.
These information systems need real-time highly reliable data about the identity, status, time, location, etc. of
the equipment, vehicles or items during the transport operation. The characteristics of an intermodal transport
chain is that pieces of equipment or items will be loaded or unloaded more than once from other pieces of
equipment or vehicles. AEI systems in such applications are also able to provide the identity of both units at
the loading and unloading process. The purpose is to capture the event so that the information system reflects
the real world.
This International Standard is specifically aimed at DSRC-type air interfaces. The requirement and test methods
may not apply for Intermodal AEI systems using long-range communications such as Cellular Networks or
Satellite, or vicinity communication such as inductively coupled antennas. The interoperability across the air
interface (reference point Delta) is outside the scope of this International Standard. Please see ISO 17264.
Any system used to read identity and related data has to be based on a standardized system to allocate an
unambiguous identity to each item, vehicle, load unit or equipment as defined in ISO 17262.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD  ISO 17263:2012(E)
Intelligent transport systems — Automatic vehicle and
equipment identification — System parameters
1  Scope
1.1  General
This International Standard establishes an AEI system based on radio frequency technologies. This system
is intended for general application in RTTT/TICS. It allows the transfer of the identification codes and further
information about equipment and vehicles used in intermodal transport into such RTTT/TICS and information
systems related to intermodal transport processes. Within the intermodal context of the RTTT/TICS Sector, AEI
systems have the specific objective of achieving an unambiguous identification of an ITU or related equipment
or vehicle or item used in intermodal transport, and to make that identification automatically. Vehicles will be
considered and handled under Intermodal aspects as “Intermodal Equipment”. Therefore, a differentiation
between AEI and AVI systems for the purpose of this standard is not required.
1.2 Aim
The aim of this International Standard is to define, describe and specify the System Parameters related to an
intermodal AEI system to provide an enabling Standard, which, while allowing the system specifier to determine
the performance levels and operating conditions, provides a framework for interoperability. Therefore this
International Standard specifies
a) parameters and requirements of the identification system itself,
b) performance criteria necessary to ensure consistent and reliable operation of AEI systems within
international transport processing,
c) requirements of the performance and the position of the electronic devices (tag) when installed on
intermodal equipment, and
d) requirements for the installation of readers, and performance data related to these components.
These parameters of an AEI system shall be identical, compatible or interoperable world-wide in respect of systems
complying to this Standard. Yet it is recognized that, at the implementation level, there may be requirements for
regional or operational differences in the performance levels achieved against these parameters.
