• Abstract:
  The USDOT Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) research program has developed this white paper to provide stakeholders with an overview of the history, background, and plans relating to V2I Roadside Unit Research, focusing on the development of Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) Roadside Unit (RSU) Specifications. Connected vehicle technologies are rapidly moving from research to deployment; as a result, a broader group of stakeholders is emerging, and the V2I program aims to ensure that stakeholders have an awareness of research progress and results, and continue to be engaged with future research efforts. As connected vehicle technologies rely upon systems deployed and operated on both vehicles and infrastructure, coordination of research, development, and deployment activities is essential. This paper provides a brief synopsis of USDOT-sponsored RSU specification development to facilitate common understanding and participation by stakeholders.
