CMV-to-infrastructure communication: an essential component of North Carolina expanded C-VISN: safety and security concepts

The active, as well as passive, ability of commercial motor vehicles to communicate with both static as well as mobile elements of the infrastructure is critical to the effectiveness of programs such as Expanded C-VISN, as well as to the concept of improved commercial vehicle security. Vehicle-to-infrastructure communication is viewed as a basic component of North Carolina's strategic concept of enhanced CMV enforcement effectiveness for both safety and security. The team will develop and evaluate the ability to wirelessly communicate in real time information available from the onboard data bus to networked (static) readers at the roadside as well to computers in mobile enforcement vehicles. Information to communicated would include vehicle diagnostic information (including variables such as brake pad wear) and driver status (e.g., hours of service, fatigue, etc.) important to the real time safety status of the vehicle, as well as information critical to security (e.g., authentication of driver ID, off-route indication, evidence of load tampering, etc).
