• Abstract:
  Connected vehicle wireless data communications can enable safety applications that may reduce injuries and ; fatalities. Cooperative vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) safety applications will be effective only if a high fraction of ; vehicles are equipped. Deployment of V2V technology will be enhanced if it is available not only for ; manufacturing in new vehicles but also for retrofit to existing vehicles. The objective of the Connected ; Commercial Vehicles—Retrofit Safety Device (CCV-RSD) Kit Project was to develop complete hardware and ; software that can be used in various brands and models of heavy trucks. The RSD kits provide the functionality ; needed for cooperative V2V and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) safety applications to support the Model ; Deployment and other USDOT connected vehicle projects. This project included testing and documentation ; needed for installation, operation, enhancement, and maintenance of the units. These retrofit kits were built so ; they could be installed in existing class 6, 7, or 8 trucks. The RSD kits achieved a V2V and V2I functionality ; similar to that of the Connected Commercial Vehicles—Integrated Truck vehicles, where onboard equipment was ; integrated with newly manufactured truck tractors. ; This document describes application requirements for CCV-RSD safety applications, including Forward Collision ; Warning (FCW), Intersection Movement Assist (IMA), Blind Spot Warning (BSW), Emergency Electronic Brake ; Lights (EEBL), and Curve Speed Warning (CSW). Safety applications based on these requirements were ; subsequently implemented in the CCV-RSD program as an adaptation of a preexisting system developed for Light ; Vehicles and the CCV-Integrated Truck (CCV-IT) program.
