Foreword
This Technical Specification (CEN ISO/TS 17263:2003) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 278,
"Road Transport and Traffic Telematics", the secretariat of which is held by NEN, in collaboration with Technical
Committee ISO/TC 204, “Transport information and control systems”.
This is the third part of a series of Technical Specifications defining Intermodal Goods Transport for AVI/AEI, and is
the result from CEN/TC 278 Work Item 00278089. The following documents are published to form a series of
standards for for AVI/AEI in intermodal goods transport AVI/AEI:
— CEN ISO/TS 17261 Architecture and terminology (under preparation)
— CEN ISO/TS 17262 Numbering and data structures
— CEN ISO/TS 17263 System parameters
— CEN ISO/TS 17264 AVI/AEI interfaces (under preparation)
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark,
Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway,
Portugal, Slovak Republic, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
Introduction
This Technical Specification specifies parameters for a system for the automatic identification of equipment,
vehicles and items (AEI) used in intermodal transport chains. This Technical Specification 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
minimise the expenditure and to automate the process of transport observation and control. This pre 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 shall also be 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.
1 Scope
1.1 General
This Technical Specification 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 under the purpose of this standard is not required.
This Technical Specification 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 Technical Specification. Please see CEN ISO/TS 17264
Automatic Vehicle and Equipment Identification (AVI/AEI) - AVI/AEI Interfaces (under preparation).
1.2 Aim
The aim of this standard is to define, describe and specify the System Parameters related to an intermodal AEI
system to provide an enabling Standard, which, whilst allowing the system specifier to determine the performance
levels and operating conditions, provides a framework for interoperability. Therefore this Technical Specification
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
d) requirements for the installation of readers, and performance data related to these components.
NOTE: These parameters of an AEI system shall be identical, compatible or interoperable world-wide in respect of systems
complying to this Pre-Standard. Yet it is recognised that, at the implementation level, there may be requirements for regional or
operational differences in the performance levels achieved against these parameters.
1.3 Pre-requisite
Any system to read identity and related data has to be based on a standardised system to allocate an
unambiguous identity to each item, vehicle, load unit or equipment as defined in CEN ISO/TS 17262 Automatic
vehicle and equipment identification - Intermodal goods transport - Numbering and data structures.
