Vesolje - Ugotavljanje položaja z uporabo sistema globalne satelitske navigacije (GNSS) pri inteligentnih transportnih sistemih (ITS) v cestnem prometu - 1. del: Definicije in sistemsko-tehnični postopki za določanje in ocenjevanje zmogljivosti
Civilne uporabe ugotavljanja geografskega položaja so v hitrem razvoju. Zadnja tržna analiza za sisteme GNSS prikazuje dve glavni področji uporabe, ki si skupaj delita praktično celoten trg:
– inteligentni transportni sistemi (ITS), predvsem na področju sistemov ITS v cestnem prometu,
– lokacijske storitve (LBS), ki so na voljo v pametnih telefonih in tabličnih računalnikih.
Če sistem ITS v cestnem prometu zahteva ugotavljanje položaja z uporabo sistema GNSS, kar velja za večino takih sistemov, se pojavi vprašanje glede izbire vrste sistema GNSS ali sprejemnika ter minimalnih zahteve glede zmogljivosti sistema GNSS, ki so potrebne za izpolnjevanje končnih zahtev sistema ITS na ravni uporabnika. Za izpolnjevanje teh zahtev sistem vključuje obdelovalni aplikacijski modul, ki uporablja izhode (PVT = položaj – hitrost – čas) terminala sistema GNSS za zagotavljanje storitve s podano zmogljivostjo delovanja od začetka do konca. Slednja je posledično odvisna od kakovosti izhodov sistema za ugotavljanje položaja, ki se zelo razlikuje glede na pogoje delovanja sistema, in samega delovanja aplikacijskega modula.
Glavni sistemi ITS, ki jih te težave zadevajo:
– sistemi cestninjenja, ki uporabljajo sistem GNSS (na javnih cestah, parkiriščih, v urbanih območjih …),
– sistemi za lokalizirane klice v sili (eCall),
– elektronski tahografi,
– taksimetri,
– transportni sistemi za regulirani tovor (nevarne snovi, živali itd.),
– sistemi avtomobilskega zavarovanja glede na prevoženo razdaljo,
– sistemi cestnega upravljanja, sistemi prometnih informacij,
– napredni sistemi za pomoč voznikom (ADAS),
– drugi sistemi.
Nekateri sistemi ITS v cestnem prometu se obravnavajo kot ključni za zagotavljanje varnosti, ker lahko odpoved teh sistemov povzroči smrt ali poškodbe, drugi pa kot ključni za zagotavljanje odgovornosti, ker vključujejo finančne ali regulativne vidike. V nekaterih primerih je razvoj teh sistemov predmet uradnega postopka certificiranja/homologacije. Predvsem pri teh sistemih je treba dokazati, da izpolnjujejo zahteve glede kakovosti delovanja od začetka do konca.
Trenutno ne obstaja norma ali standard, ki bi podpiral tak postopek certificiranja, hkrati pa je ocenjevanje delovanja ugotavljanja položaja z uporabo sistema GNSS težko izvedljivo.
Cilj tega standarda EN je zapolniti to vrzel z zagotavljanjem pristopa za upravljanje vidikov delovanja sistemov ITS v cestnem prometu, ki temeljijo na ugotavljanju položaja in jasno razlikujejo vlogo terminala za ugotavljanje položaja in aplikacijskega modula.
Podaja standardne opredelitve metrik delovanja za izhode terminala sistema GNSS za ugotavljanje položaja, ki jih uporabljajo sistemi ITS v cestnem prometu, opredelitve različnih elementov, ki jih je treba upoštevati, ko se določa operativni scenarij z metodo za opis okolja, ter postopke za usklajevanje rezultatov preskusov na različnih komponentah sistema za namene ocenjevanja delovanja od začetka do konca.
Dokument lahko uporabljajo različni deležniki v različne namene:
– lahko ga uporablja preskusni laboratorij za ocenjevanje delovanja celotnega sistema ITS v cestnem prometu, ki vsebuje dani terminal za ugotavljanje položaja in je namenjen uporabi v takem primeru;
– lahko ga uporablja razvijalec sistema ITS v cestnem prometu, ki želi izbrati ustrezno tehnologijo za ugotavljanje položaja, ki je skladna z delovanjem njegove aplikacije, ali želi prilagoditi algoritem aplikacije glede na delovanje terminala;
– lahko ga uporablja proizvajalec terminala za ugotavljanje položaja, ki želi razviti specializiran nabor namenskih terminalov za take aplikacije ali ponuditi enega od svojih izdelkov razvijalcu sistema ITS v cestnem prometu.

Figure 1 — The two main components of a Road ITS system The main Road ITS systems concerned by this issue are: — GNSS-based Road User Charging systems (road, parking zone, urban…); — localized emergency calls (eCall); — electronic tachograph; — taximeter; — regulated freight transport systems (hazardous substances, livestock, etc.); — “Pay-as-you-drive” insurance; — road management systems, traffic information systems; — advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS); — etc. Some Road ITS systems are considered as “safety critical”, because their failure may cause human death or injury and others are “liability critical”, because they include financial or regulatory aspects. In some cases, their development is subject to an official certification/homologation process.
Figure 2 — Logic of the overall performance management approach The starting point of any performance management of a Positioning-based road ITS system should be the definition and clear statement of the E2E performances which are targeted by the system to design and/or test, as expressed by the customer. In the context of this European Standard, the system breakdown into components is the one that has been introduced above: — The GNSS-based positioning terminal (GBPT) — The Road ITS application The interface between these two components is assumed to be the PVT information, together with some auxiliary information, for instance Integrity information if the GBPT is designed to support this kind of feature. Performance requirements are generally stated as requirements on the outputs of a given system component, assuming that the other components feeding it with input information do respect their own performance requirements. SIST EN 16803-1:2016
Figure 3 — Generic performance allocation process The performance requirements of the Road ITS application are actually the same ones as the system E2E performance requirements, but expressed under the condition that the GBPT respects certain performances requirements. NOTE Depending on the application, performance requirements may need to be put only on the position output or only on the velocity output by the GBPT. Due to the specificities of GNSS performances, which have to be defined statistically and which are highly dependent on the operational conditions, margins should be planned in the performance allocations, in order to allow the system to meet its performance requirements, even when, in certain conditions, one of its component does not strictly meet its own requirements. 1 Scope EN 16803-1 addresses the final stage of the performance management approach, i.e. the assessment of the whole Road ITS system performance equipped with a given GBPT, using the Sensitivity analysis method. EN 16803-1 addresses the assessment of GBPT performance, since it identifies and defines the positioning performance features and metrics to be used in the definition of the GBPT performance requirements. This EN gives definitions of the various items to be considered when specifying an Operational scenario and provides a method to compare finely two environments with respect to their effects on GNSS positioning performance. This EN gives definition of the most important terms used all along the document and describes the architecture of a Road ITS system based on GNSS as it is intended in this standard.

3.2 Components 3.2.1 Positioning components and outputs The Positioning terminal is the on-board part of the Positioning system, i.e. the part attached to the mobile object (vehicle), which position is expected by the application. In this respect, the terminal is the component of the Positioning system which is directly interfaced with the Position quantities user (in our case the Road ITS application). More precisely, since this EN is addressing the uses cases where a GNSS receiver is used, the terminal is called GNSS-based positioning terminal, or GBPT. The terminal itself consists of a series of on-board sensors and a positioning software component (Positioning module) supplying the Road ITS application with Position quantities. The Positioning module inside the terminal, or the GNSS sensor itself, can use external GNSS data provided through a data transmission channel, for instance assistance data, differential GNSS data or SBAS data. The position SIST EN 16803-1:2016
In the frame of this EN, the GBPT shall use at least a GNSS receiver which can be hybridized or assisted. In the frame of this EN, the Position quantities output by the GBPT shall comprise at least one of the two following quantities:
— the position of the phase centre of the GNSS receiver antenna or of any other reference point of the vehicle, expressed in a standard geodetic reference system; — the velocity of this point; each of them being associated with a timestamp indicating the time to which the output corresponds. Depending on the application, the position can be either the 3 components of the 3D position (i.e. a vector), or a subset of them, for example the 2D horizontal position (projection of the 3D position on the horizontal plane or on a plane tangent to the ellipsoid used by the geodetic reference frame) or the vertical position. The same way, the velocity can be limited to the horizontal 2D velocity or even to the module of it, i.e. the horizontal speed, or to any single component of the 3D velocity. In the case when the Positioning terminal is delivering Integrity information on any position or velocity component of the PVT, this information shall comprise at least: — a Protection level on the concerned PVT component, according to the definition given in this EN, that is to say a value that statistically bounds the error of the position or velocity component provided by the positioning terminal with a very high probability, — computed for a given Integrity risk, which is the complementary probability of the latter, that is to say the probability that the actual error on the component actually exceeds the associated Protection level. 3.2.2 Road ITS application and outputs The Road ITS application is a software module which is broken down for the purpose of this document into 2 sub-modules: 1) The Technical sub-module which transforms the Position quantities into Application quantities derived directly from the PVT and other data depending on the application and which are the key quantities necessary to deliver the final service to the user. EXAMPLE Position on a road segment (map-matched position), charging point detection, zone entry/exit detection, distance covered are examples of Application quantities. 2) The Business sub-module which is dedicated to the provision of the final service and highly dependent on the business model chosen by the operator of the system. EXAMPLE Computation of the bill to be sent to the user for a road user charging system is an example of processing done by this sub-module. Since this processing can be extremely variable, this sub-module is out of the scope of this EN, and will be considered in this EN only the cases when the End-to-end performances of the system providing the service are established on the Application quantities. SIST EN 16803-1:2016
NOTE These features resemble, to some extent, those identified by the Civil Aviation community regarding “Required Navigation Performances”, but with some key differences which reflect the peculiarities and specific needs of Road ITS applications.
The aforesaid features are: — Accuracy: it refers to statistical figures of merit of position error, velocity error or speed error (as defined in 4.3). — Integrity: it refers to the characteristic of the Protection level and its associated Integrity risk, in terms of reliability (verification of the risk) but also its efficiency and usability (size of the Protection level, which is directly related to their usability for the intended application).
