The COMeSafety project objectives

  • Co-ordination and consolidation of research results and their implementation
    Co-ordination and consolidation of the results emerging of the European and national projects as well as the outcomes of initiatives like the CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium (C2C-CC) to prepare the standardisation process with respect to all technologies for vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications
  • eSafety Forum support
    Support of the eSafety Forum, especially the Working Group Communications, by promoting information flows, summing up major research results, giving feedback on implementation progress, forwarding and explaining recommendations from the Forum and providing input concerning deployment strategies
  • Worldwide harmonization
    Harmonization with activities and initiatives elsewhere in the world, particularly with the VSC and VII consortia in the US and programs like AHSRA and ASV3 in Japan

  • Frequency allocation
    Support of spectrum allocation for ITS applications, mainly for safety related car to car/infrastructure communication through cooperation with the European regulation bodies and the technical WGs of ETSI

  • Dissemination
    Dissemination of system properties towards all stakeholders, e.g. general public, industrial players, road operators, European and national authorities etc. to prepare system introduction

Cooperative Safety

The overall goal of the COMeSafety proposal is to support realization and possible deployment of cooperative, communication based active safety systems. The project provides information to the EC about relevant technical and organizational matters. It is dedicated to foster wide agreement on technical issues on the one hand, but also wide agreements on deployment strategies.
