Includes Physical Objects:

Physical Object	Class	Description
Basic Transit Vehicle	Vehicle	The 'Basic Transit Vehicle' represents the transit vehicle that hosts the on-board equipment that provides ITS functions. It includes a specialized and extended databus that is subject to different vehicle databus standards and hosts a broad range of components that are unique to a transit vehicle including the farebox and associated electronics, passenger counters, and transit security systems. The Transit Vehicle may represent a bus, paratransit vehicle, light rail vehicle, or other vehicle designed to carry passengers.
Transit Vehicle OBE	Vehicle	The 'Transit Vehicle On-Board Equipment' (OBE) resides in a transit vehicle and provides the sensory, processing, storage, and communications functions necessary to support safe and efficient movement of passengers. The types of transit vehicles containing this physical object include buses, paratransit vehicles, light rail vehicles, other vehicles designed to carry passengers, and supervisory vehicles. It collects ridership levels and supports electronic fare collection. It supports a traffic signal prioritization function that communicates with the roadside physical object to improve on-schedule performance. Automated vehicle location enhances the information available to the transit operator enabling more efficient operations. On-board sensors support transit vehicle maintenance. The physical object supports on-board security and safety monitoring. This monitoring includes transit user or vehicle operator activated alarms (silent or audible), as well as surveillance and sensor equipment. The surveillance equipment includes video (e.g. CCTV cameras), audio systems and/or event recorder systems. It also furnishes travelers with real-time travel information, continuously updated schedules, transfer options, routes, and fares. A separate 'Vehicle OBE' physical object supports the general vehicle safety and driver information capabilities that apply to all vehicles, including transit vehicles. The Transit Vehicle OBE supplements these general capabilities with capabilities that are specific to transit vehicles.
Transit Vehicle Operator	Vehicle	The 'Transit Vehicle Operator' represents the person that receives and provides additional information that is specific to operating the ITS functions in all types of transit vehicles. The information received by the operator would include status of on-board systems. Additional information received depends upon the type of transit vehicle. In the case of fixed route transit vehicles, the Transit Vehicle Operator would receive operator instructions that might include actions to take to correct schedule deviations. In the case of flexible fixed routes and demand response routes the information would also include dynamic routing or passenger pickup information.
Vehicle	Vehicle	This 'Vehicle' physical object is used to model core capabilities that are common to more than one type of Vehicle. It provides the vehicle-based general sensory, processing, storage, and communications functions that support efficient, safe, and convenient travel. Many of these capabilities (e.g., see the Vehicle Safety service packages) apply to all vehicle types including personal vehicles (including motorcycles), commercial vehicles, emergency vehicles, transit vehicles, and maintenance vehicles. From this perspective, the Vehicle includes the common interfaces and functions that apply to all motorized vehicles. The radio(s) supporting V2V and V2I communications are a key component of the Vehicle. Both one-way and two-way communications options support a spectrum of information services from basic broadcast to advanced personalized information services. Advanced sensors, processors, enhanced driver interfaces, and actuators complement the driver information services so that, in addition to making informed mode and route selections, the driver travels these routes in a safer and more consistent manner. This physical object supports all six levels of driving automation as defined in SAE J3016. Initial collision avoidance functions provide 'vigilant co-pilot' driver warning capabilities. More advanced functions assume limited control of the vehicle to maintain lane position and safe headways. In the most advanced implementations, this Physical Object supports full automation of all aspects of the driving task, aided by communications with other vehicles in the vicinity and in coordination with supporting infrastructure subsystems.

Includes Functional Objects:

Functional Object	Description	Physical Object
Transit Vehicle V2V Safety	'Transit Vehicle V2V Safety' exchanges current vehicle location and motion information with other vehicles in the vicinity, uses that information to predict vehicle paths, and notifies the driver when the potential for an impending collision is detected. Information from on-board sensors (e.g., radars and image processing) are used to augment the V2V communications, if available. In addition to notifying the driver, control information can also be provided to support automated control functions that can avoid the collision. This object is similar to the 'Vehicle Basic V2V Safety', but it accounts for crash scenarios that are unique to transit vehicles (e.g., Vehicle Turning Right in Front of Bus). It is also stop-aware since stop locations pose specific crash threats for transit vehicles. Finally, the detection and control algorithms, filters, and timing account for bus performance and risk profiles associated with remote vehicles that are unique to transit.	Transit Vehicle OBE

Includes Information Flows:

Information Flow	Description
collision warning information	Information provided to support computer-based intervention of vehicle controls. Analogous to driver warnings, these are warnings issued to on-board control systems of an impending collision or other situation detected by the Vehicle OBE that may require control intervention.
host transit vehicle status	Information provided to the ITS on-board equipment from other systems on the Transit Vehicle Platform.
transit vehicle operator display	Visual, audible, and tactile outputs to the transit vehicle operator including vehicle surveillance information, alarm information, vehicle system status, information from the operations center, and information indicating the status of all other on-board ITS services.
transit vehicle operator input	Transit vehicle operator inputs to on-board ITS equipment, including tactile and verbal inputs. Includes authentication information, on-board system control, emergency requests, and fare transaction data.
vehicle location and motion	Data describing the vehicle's location in three dimensions, heading, speed, acceleration, braking status, and size.

Basic Transit Vehicle	Transit Vehicle OBE	host transit vehicle status	Moderate	Moderate	Moderate
Basic Transit Vehicle	Transit Vehicle OBE	host transit vehicle status	This can include some sensitive data. However, other data, such as vehicle location and motion will then be broadcast. There also may be proprietary information included in this. DISC THEA believes this to be LOW: "sensor data is not confidential; harm should not come from seeing status."	This is used later on to determine whether a vehicle should request priority at an intersection. If this information is incorrect the vehicle may make false requests. All other flows that use the data from this flow have a MODERATE integrity requirement, therefore, this must also have a MODERATE integrity requirement. DISC: THEA believes this should be HIGH: "sensor data needs to be accurate and should not be tampered with."	This information would need to be available immediately for the application to work.DISC: THEA believes this should be HIGH: "sensor data must be consistently available to feed BSMs broadcast at 10Hz, notifications, etc.."
Transit Vehicle OBE	Basic Transit Vehicle	collision warning information	Low	Moderate	Moderate
Transit Vehicle OBE	Basic Transit Vehicle	collision warning information	The information described in this message is the result of an analysis on broadcast data. It would not be difficult for a third party to produce the same message by listening to the broadcast information.	This information is used by automated control systems on the vehicle platform to decide whether to react automatically, for example by braking. We assume that the vehicle platform uses this as only one input to the decision and will also take input from front-facing sensors (for pedestrian detection), rear-facing sensors (to detect possible rear-ending), etc. We strongly recommend that this message is not used as the sole basis for action; if it were to be so used, the integrity requirement might need to be HIGH, but we do not consider this case in detail here.DISC: THEA believes this should be HIGH: "information that provides warnings must be accurate and cannot be tampered with."	This information is just one of a number of inputs to the vehicle platform that may be used to determine whether or not to take evasive action. DISC: THEA believes this should be HIGH: "information that provides warnings must be immediately available for the driver/control systems to react."
Transit Vehicle OBE	Transit Vehicle Operator	transit vehicle operator display	Low	Moderate	Low
Transit Vehicle OBE	Transit Vehicle Operator	transit vehicle operator display	This should not include any sensitive information. It would be possible for a person standing behind the driver to observe the information transmitted.	Some minimal guarantee of data integrity is necessary for all C-ITS flows. This entire application should not directly affect the drivers driving habits. The operator should still be slowing and stopping at yellow or red lights, along with observing all other driving regulations. DISC: Original V2I analysis classified this as LOW.	Even if the operator is not made aware of the signal preemption, the system should still operate correctly. The operator should be using the traffic lights to influence their decision about whether or not to stop, not the display.
Transit Vehicle Operator	Transit Vehicle OBE	transit vehicle operator input	Low	Moderate	Low
Transit Vehicle Operator	Transit Vehicle OBE	transit vehicle operator input	This information is transmitted through systems on board the Transit Vehicle. Even if the vehicle were compromised and these communications monitored, most of this information is directly observable.	Some minimal guarantee of data integrity is necessary for all C-ITS flows. If this is compromised, it could result in an incorrect signal priority request, which has minimal impact. DISC: Original V2I analysis classified this as LOW.	A delay in reporting this may result in a signal priority request not going through, which has minimal impact.
