Overview
Objectives:
The five major objectives of the project were:
- Coordination and consolidation of the results emerging of the European and national projects as well as the outcomes of initiatives like the Car-to-Car Communication Consortium (C2C-CC) to prepare the standardization process with respect to all technologies for vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications.
- Support to the Forum, especially the Working Group on Communications, by promoting information exchange, summing up major research results, giving feedback on implementation progress, disseminating recommendations from the Forum and providing input concerning deployment strategies.
- Harmonisation and coordination with activities and initiatives elsewhere in the world, particularly with the VSC and VII consortia in the US and programmes like AHSRA and ASV3 in Japan
- Support to allocation of a dedicated frequency band with effective protection for safety related car to car/infrastructure communication through cooperation with the European regulation bodies and the technical WGs of standardisation organisations.
- Dissemination of results towards all stakeholders, e.g. general public, industrial players, road operators, European and national authorities etc. to prepare system introduction.
Methodology:
COMeSafety encompassed five main activities dedicated to cooperative safety systems:
- Co-ordination and consolidation of research results and their implementation
- Support to the eSafety Forum
