Description
Dedicated short range communications (DSRC) are Roadside Units (RSU) that are short range to medium range wireless communication radios (one or two way) specifically designed for communications from the infrastructure to the vehicle for notification of signals, construction zones, fire pre-emption and provides a way for vehicles to communicate directly with roadside equipment. DSRC is equipped with a camera for mapping. This element includes the roadside equipment that performs vehicle infrastructure integration, data collection and dissemination.'Connected Vehicle Roadside Equipment' (CV RSE) represents the Connected Vehicle roadside devices that are used to send messages to, and receive messages from, nearby vehicles using Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) or other alternative wireless communications technologies. Communications with adjacent field equipment and back office centers that monitor and control the RSE are also supported. This device operates from a fixed position and may be permanently deployed or a portable device that is located temporarily in the vicinity of a traffic incident, road construction, or a special event. It includes a processor, data storage, and communications capabilities that support secure communications with passing vehicles, other field equipment, and centers.
