Cooperative systems -Definition


"Road operators, infrastructure, vehicles, their drivers and other road users will cooperate to deliver the most efficient, safe, secure and comfortable journey. The vehicle-vehicle and vehicle-infrastructure cooperative systems will contribute to these objectives beyond the improvements achievable with stand-alone system”

Road works warning

Use cases

1 The road operator sets up an

event — lane closure —, issuing

a warning.

2 Road side units and cellular

network broadcast the

warning.

3 The drivers are alerted by the on-

board systems.

Real-time provision of information to users

Desired behaviour

Use Case 4

Vehicles Road-side Units Control centers

The GSM network is used to alert drivers.

1

The road operator sets up an event — lane closure —, issuing a warning.

2

Road side units broadcast the warning.

2

The drivers are alerted by the on-board systems.

The Advanced Mobility Connector

A-to-Be LinkBeyond™ is the invitation for everyone to the mobility party.No operator is left behind; No mobility experience is interrupted.

L-A-M(Local Access Mediator)

car play

app(A-to-Be LinkBeyond™ SDK)

Back-end(A-to-Be LinkBeyond™)

All transport operators and mobility players connect, making things happen on the field — access gantries are activated, fares enforced, barriers open. By using a range of connectivity solutions without limits, from beacons to apps, any solution the traveler interacts with is adopted.

If A-to-Be MoveBeyond is the soft part of MaaS, A-to-Be LinkBeyond is the hard one.
