What is PD CEN/TS 17234 – 112 eCall testing about?
The ability to reach help on time is a vital factor during a crash. The 112-eCall system in the vehicle contacts the 112 emergency services, establishes a wireless telephone connection and immediately provides the public service answering point (PSAP) with a minimum set of data that identifies the vehicle, location of the crash, the direction of travel, and may provide additional relevant data. It may also provide the number of passengers, other vehicles and incident-related data.
PD CEN/TS 17234 defines conformance and performance tests to demonstrate whether a PSAP is in compliance with the eCall Regulations and Standards.
PD CEN/TS 17234 identifies the mandatory tests specified within EN 16454 that are appropriate for a PSAP to demonstrate its conformance to EN 16454 in accordance with European Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 305/2013.
PD CEN/TS 17234 specifies tests to verify that a PSAP has procedures in place to identify and decode registered optional additional data concepts included in the Minimum set of data.
Who is PD CEN/TS 17234 - 112 eCall testing for?
PD CEN/TS 17234 on 112 eCall testing is useful for:
- IT and telecommunication firms
- Tech developers/software programmers
- Transport authorities
- Regional Transport Offices
- Transport and safety management industries
- Organizations that manage road transport and highways
Why should you use PD CEN/TS 17234 - 112 eCall testing?
eCall is a service provided in Europe with the goal of reducing response times for accidents or other emergencies on the roadways. PD CEN/TS 17234 describes the technology behind eCall and presents conformance tests for eCall. Test software for eCall makes it quick and easy to perform these tests with the GSM wireless communications standard.
The success of eCall is based on the functionality of the whole system. Therefore, the interoperability of the PSAP needs to be tested by performing field testing. PD CEN/TS 17234 describes the principles behind eCall and explains conformance testing.
PD CEN/TS 17234 gives guidance on technical set-up for circuit-switched eCall using TS12 procedures as specified in 3GPP Release 8. PD CEN/TS 17234 provides a conformance test regime for 112-eCall (Pan European eCall).
PD CEN/TS 17234 provides you with optional tests to measure aspects of PSAP performance in handling aspects of eCall. PD CEN/TS 17234 provides you with conformity assessment procedures for PSAPs. PD CEN/TS 17234 guidelines help you to make road transport safer for drivers and passengers.
