• Abstract:
  Connected vehicle wireless data communications can enable safety applications that may reduce injuries and fatalities ; suffered on our roads and highways, as well as enabling reductions in traffic congestion and effects on the ; environment. As a critical part of achieving these goals, the USDOT contracted with a Team led by Battelle to integrate ; and validate connected vehicle on-board equipment (OBE) and safety applications on selected Class 8 commercial ; vehicles and to support those vehicles in research and testing activities that provide information and data needed to ; assess their safety benefits and support regulatory decision processes. ; This document describes the testing that was conducted to ensure that the prototype safety application hardware and ; software components were integrated into the four tractors properly: that the systems power up, have electrical and ; data connectivity, and that the individual elements operate as expected and data is exchanged and collected ; successfully. The outcome of this activity is that the vehicle build process and basic functionality of four tractors was ; confirmed.
