Overview of USDOT Roadside Unit Specification v4.1 Deborah Curtis, USDOT Chris Stanley, Leidos Ed Leslie, Leidos
USDOT Roadside Unit 4.1 Specifications Roadside devices to enable communication between connected vehicles and existing traffic control equipment & systems
Federal Highway Administration Saxton Transportation Operations Lab 12
RSU Overview • RSU provides information about infrastructure (e.g. SPaT/MAP from traffic controller or TIM) • RSU collects information about vehicles (e.g. BSM, PVD) • On-Board Unit (OBU) receives and process the messages based on its current GPS co-ordinates • RSU broadcasts wave service advertisements (WSA) which are received by OBU and OBU sets the channel and routing information accordingly • IP connectivity to OBU is achieved by running WSA and IP service applications on RSU 13
RSU with 3.0 vs. 4.1 Hardware and Software RSU with 4.1 Devices • Hardware: 4.1 devices should include a hardware security module (HSM) to provide secure storage and processing (required by SCMS) • Software: • requires more use of Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and provides a MIB • adds health and status monitoring features • increases security requirements (e.g. passwords, ports, etc.)
• Require the latest (2016) version of connected vehicle (CV) specifications with examples 14
SNMP Specifications Intent is to move toward Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) rather than direct loading of message files by SCP, etc. • Simplify device interaction • Improve security • Simplify management of a large number of devices
15
Message Forwarding Specifications Should the RSU forward (1609) headers? • Headers contain useful information • Make it configurable (through NTCIP 1218) How should the WSA handle Immediate Forward messages? • IF messages don’t have a predefined duration • Advertise the service as long as the message is transmitted? TMC
RSU 16
RSU Set Specifications • Intent is to allow a large intersection with poor line-of-sight to be equipped with multiple RSUs that will provide the same messages and improve the coverage of DSRC radios • Operate as a single unit and appear to vehicles and to a traffic management center (TMC) as a single unit RSU

AASHTO SPaT Challenge • Challenge state and local public sector transportation Instructure Owners & Operators (IO&Os) to deploy Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) infrastructure with SPaT broadcasts in at least one coordinated corridor or network (approximately 20 signalized intersections) in each state by January 2020. • 20 Intersection in 50 states by 2020!
27
SPaT Pilot Project 21 signalized intersections along US 90 (Mahan Drive) in Tallahassee FDOT and City of Tallahassee Partnership City installed equipment Pre-deployment testing at the Traffic Engineering Research Laboratory (TERL) Vendor selected in Q4 2017 Deployment completed 28
System Knowledge – Controller/Roadside Unit Communication Questions to ask prior to installation and deployment: • Is there anything that needs to be installed (physically or software) to the existing infrastructure? • How will the controller communicate to the Roadside Unit (RSU)? • MAP file configuration – during testing phase Both Google (or other map site) and onsite inspection need to be performed Need controller phase/lane assignment or some indications will display incorrectly
• Where will the MAP file reside? • Any other considerations for the MAP file? 29
Traffic Controller • Ensure the traffic controller firmware and any other SPaT/CV software/hardware are compatible and installed in the cabinet.
30
Roadside Units (RSU) • Designate and configure the unit before installation Note: MAC, IP, and other unique attributes before installation
• Tallahassee location (based on RSU manufacturer) required two RSUs per intersection at multiple locations Conduct a study to verify if two RSUs at one intersection is needed for line of sight
• Ensure antennae, cable entry, and any other access points to the device are secured and water tight 31

RSU and Antenna Placement on Mast Arm/Spanwire
Radio Antenna on the Vehicle
Multi-Channel Test Tool (MCTT) • Used to verify signal strength and quality as well as display raw data being received from the RSUs • Can be a DSRC radio reserved specifically for use as and configured to detect RSU messages with laptop computer or other device • Designate and configure unit before installation Note: MAC, IP, and other unique attributes before installation
35
On-Board Unit (OBU) • Configuration varies Some manufacturer OBUs do not require the external computer Ensure the OBU can process and handle the flood of SPaT/MAP messages when multiple RSUs are within range of the OBU.
• Designate and configure unit before installation
36
On-Board Unit (OBU) OBUs can comprise of a DSRC radio and GPS connected to a Raspberry Pi, and includes a cellular modem and a router with WiFi to an tablet.

Pre-Deployment Testing
SPaT Pilot Project – Pre-Deployment Testing
Field Deployment
SPaT Pilot Project – Lessons Learned • Two stage FCC licensing: First: blanket approval for use of DSRC Second: Location (GPS detail, mounting height of devices, make and model of RSU’s and OBU’s) • Ensure devices are licensed by FCC for deployment • Proposers should ask questions during the procurement process regarding device compatibility with controllers • Ensure the MAPs are properly coded and the Uper Hex code is validated for field testing; offer vendors to develop their own • Consider expanding SPaT with other CV technologies including bike-ped safety, etc.

45
Introduction to Licensing RSUs • Dedicated Short Range Communication
5.9G band FCC Governing Agency Initial pilots – use under USDOT license grant Effectively a fixed radio roadside unit (RSU)
• New sites/deployments Need to request FCC site specific license Includes SPaT Challenge locations 46
DSRC Licensing 101 1. Perform Site Selection – gather GPS position for RSU 2. Check TOWAIR http://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/AsrSearch/towairSearch.jsp
3. Get determination of No Hazard - File FAA Form 854. 4. Apply for Geographic License - FCC FORM 601 Main Form and Schedule D 5. Register sites under the Geographic license – FCC Form 601 and Schedule M 6. Certify construction of the RSU – FCC Form 601 and Schedule K. http://wireless.fcc.gov/uls/index.htm?job=home 47

RSU Design Considerations • Collocation: Wherever feasible, CV equipment will be collocated at CCTV, DMS or traffic signal locations sites to take advantage of the existing roadside infrastructure, power and communications equipment. • USDOT Compliance - The RSU to be installed on projects shall meet the latest “5.9GHz DSRC Roadside Equipment” Device Specification issued by the USDOT v4.1a. • Mounting Height - Per the FCC regulations the DSRC radio shall be mounted at a maximum height of 8 meters or around 26 feet above the roadway surface before a maximum Equivalent Isotopically Radiated Power (EIRP) limitation occurs. 49
Site Selection
• Clear Line of Sight - RSU mounting location shall be optimized to achieve clear line of sight free of RF signal path interference from trees, bridges, overpasses and other structures. • Needs to be hard fixed mount location • Avoid sway/vibration. • 18-24” off mast/strain poles
• Spectrum Analysis - DSRC spectrum coordination must be completed to assure all FCC regulatory requirements are met and to ensure no interference with other existing RF signals is present. • Detection Range: A maximum detection range of 1200 meter radius using for the RSU placement. 50

Cabinet Audits - Considerations • Backhaul communications • Determine local cabinet switch capable to handle new backplane requirements (SPaT, BSM forward, SRM, etc.) Key decision point IP4/IP6 dual stack
• Power sufficiency (DC vs. AC) Ready for PoE+ (328’ max Ethernet cabling distance) Remote device reset required (e.g. iBoot)
• Traffic Signal Controller (make, mode, firmware) Ready for SPaT direct to RSU V2I hub min-SPaT format/syntax 54
Procurement • Evaluation of USDOT Specification 4.1a Define DSRC needs for my deployment Select or define DSRC applications (new vs. minimum) Evaluate SNMP for Management and Monitoring
• Standards continuing to evolve (SAE, IEEE) • Evaluate selection criteria, evaluation-based RFP Recommend including bench test units prior to purchase (or in the RFP selection criteria) Define unit quantities over a timeframe 55
State of Health (SoH) • Management and Monitoring or SoH SNMP v3 DTLS required Define SNMP client type MIBs and more MIBs Not all are equitable (yet) Commercial tool challenges

O&M Recommendations • Need to research and learn standards • Define data elements for storage/analysis BSM Part 1, Part 2
• Define On-board Unit use for Fleet vehicles Likely to need custom development Define demonstration vs. trial use only
• SNMPv3 as requirement • Bench testing in each DSRC procurement process/document 60
