Physical Object: Multi-Access Edge Computing

MEC Work Zone Safety

Overview

'MEC Work Zone Safety' communicates with connected vehicles and personal devices carried or worn by the work crew to detect vehicle intrusions in work zones and warn crew workers and drivers of imminent encroachment. Crew movements are also monitored so that crew can be warned of movement beyond the designated safe zone. There may be constraints related to performance related to communications with participants using network operators foreign to the MEC.

This functional object is included in the "Multi-Access Edge Computing" physical object.

Requirements

# Requirement
01The field element shall monitor Connected Vehicles' location and motion data to detect vehicle intrusions in work zones.
02The field element shall communicate with Personal Information Devices carried or worn by the work crew to warn crew workers a of imminent encroachment.
03The field element shall communicate with Connected Maintenance and Construction Vehicles to warn drivers of a work zone encroachment or speeds too fast for the work zone.
04The field element shall communicate with Connected Vehicles to warn drivers of a work zone encroachment or speeds too fast for the work zone.
05The field element shall provide traffic situation data near a work zone to nearby field equipment
06The field element shall provide status of the work zone warning application, including faults with the equipment to the center.

Standards

Currently, there are no standards associated with the functional object itself though the interfaces may have standards associated with them.
