Multi-Access Edge Computing --> ITS Roadway Equipment:
detected unequipped vehicles and VRUs

Definitions

detected unequipped vehicles and VRUs (Information Flow): Notification of a nearby vehicle (light vehicle, commercial vehicle, MMV etc.) or vulnerable road user that does not appear to be equipped with a short range communications device but is detectable using onboard vehicle or infrastructure sensors. The flow communicates detected vehicle/VRU location, physical characteristics, observable kinematics and confidence in those measures.

Multi-Access Edge Computing (Source Physical Object): 'Multi-Access Edge Computing' ((MEC) previously known as mobile edge computing) represents computing devices that operate and are managed like a cloud server, but are deployed at the edge of a network (typically a cellular network, but it could be any network). While not in strict proximity to the transportation network, these systems do benefit from vastly decreased distances to the roadway compared to central systems, and so can provide lower latency than strictly backoffice systems

ITS Roadway Equipment (Destination Physical Object): 'ITS Roadway Equipment' represents the ITS equipment that is distributed on and along the roadway that monitors and controls traffic and monitors and manages the roadway. This physical object includes traffic detectors, environmental sensors, traffic signals, highway advisory radios, dynamic message signs, CCTV cameras and video image processing systems, grade crossing warning systems, and ramp metering systems. Lane management systems and barrier systems that control access to transportation infrastructure such as roadways, bridges and tunnels are also included. This object also provides environmental monitoring including sensors that measure road conditions, surface weather, and vehicle emissions. Work zone systems including work zone surveillance, traffic control, driver warning, and work crew safety systems are also included.
