Next Steps (1): CIP Funding for Predeployment Pilots

Objective 1.4: Support to eCall implementation based on 112:• Focus and outcomes • to prepare for the deployment of the necessary infrastructure to

realise the pan-European in-vehicle emergency call service “eCall”

04/02/10 – Bxl, 28/04/2010 ••• 7

• Important considering the incoming pilots

Next steps (2)The European eCall Implementation Platform

• EC, MS and stakeholders associations representatives

• Ensure a harmonised deployment in Europe => guidelines and recommendations, best practices exchanges

'eCall: Time for Deployment‘ Future actions: Planned regulatory measures (1)

1. Based on the USD

2. Recommendation to the MS targeting MNOs on the transmission of eCall

• Support of the eCall like any other 112 call, routing the voice with the MSD to the most appropriate PSAP determined by the MS authorities to handle eCalls

• Implementation of the eCall discriminator, following ETSI standard

1.- Telecom Part

04/02/10 – Bxl, 28/04/2010 ••• 10

'eCall: Time for Deployment‘ Future actions: Planned regulatory measures (3)

• The assessment of a potential regulatory measure for the necessary upgrading of the PSAP infrastructure in the framework of the proposed Directive on the deployment of ITS in Europe

• Harmonised deployment of EU-wide eCall service in Europe is a priority action of the Directive, as agreed by Council and EP

• Common specs will be adopted following CEN standards
