Abstract: Next generation emergency notification system after emergency call (eCall) equipped vehicle regulations with the legislation EU-2015/758 is analysed via optimal architecture selection with the study of cost modelling for the “Emergency Calls EROs Handling” model of European Emergency Number Association (EENA) which is applied in Italy, Austria, France, Germany and Norway. According to EU-Regulation 2015/758, public safety answering points (PSAPs) need to be ready for the new model system with the start date of 1st October 2017 while eCall-equipped vehicles are started to be produced at the end of March 2018. With this regulation, infrastructure and working procedure of eCall systems as well as eCall equipments and related vehicle structures will be updated or modified as an obligation. According to status of most appropriate 112 PSAPs, there may be an adaptation of manual eCall PSAPs, auto eCall PSAPs. In this paper, the optimal architecture of the system in Italy is discussed and the next generation crash notification systems for current “Emergency Calls EROs Handling” model are defined. 1 INTRODUCTION Navigation Satellite System to take the positioning data of the vehicle (2) which have an accident when According to International Accident and Road crashing the tree (5). Next, eCall unit (3) is the Database (IRTAD), numbers of road fatalities are device inside of the vehicle and will be an obligation changing between 3 and 13 for 100000 inhabitants after eCall equipped vehicle regulation in 2018. in the IRTAD member countries (IRTAD, 2014). Cellular tower (4) processes the communication The countries try to decrease these fatality rates; so signals and transfer to the related services thanks to the new regulations are created. The main objective communication network (6). 112 PSAP (7) is the of this study is to define the optimal architecture of emergency call response service in the current emergency call system in Italy after eCall equipped statuses. When Manual eCall PSAP (8) is the next vehicle regulation, EU-2015/758 in 2018. It means generation PSAP service for the accidents of the there will be the next generation of current vehicles which have manual eCall device, Automatic “Emergency Calls EROs Handling” model of eCall PSAP (9) is the next generation PSAP service European Emergency Number Association (EENA). for the accidents of the vehicles which have The emergency calls (eCall) system generic automatic eCall device.

    Research and Science Today Supplement No. 2/2017 Engineering AUTOMATED CALL TO 112 IN CASE OF CAR ACCIDENTS – USING AN E-SAFETY ROBOT George CARUTASU1 Mihai Alexandru BOTEZATU2 Cristina COCULESCU3 ABSTRACT: AUTOMATIC SYSTEMS HAVE A GREAT SIGNIFICANCE, BUT THE SYSTEMS THAT REQUIRE AND USE ROBOTS’ CHARACTERISTICS ARE IMPORTANT AS WELL, ALLOWING AN EFFICIENT DIVERSITY REGARDING THEIR CONSTRUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT. STATISTICS SHOW THAT IN EU, IN THE LAST 10 YEARS, ON AVERAGE OF APPROXIMATELY 40000 PEOPLE LOST THEIR LIVES EVERY SINGLE YEAR IN ROAD ACCIDENTS, WHILE ANNUAL FINANCIAL LOSSES WERE EVALUATED TO APPROXIMATIVELY 25 BILLION EURO. STUDIES REVEALED THAT THE NEGATIVE EFFECTS OF A ROAD ACCIDENT INCREASE EXPONENTIALLY WITH THE INCREASE OF THE TIME PAST BETWEEN THE IMPACT MOMENT AND INTERVENTION MOMENT. TODAY, IN EU, THE AVERAGE TIME TO INTERVENTION IS AROUND 30 MINUTES. IN ALL EU MEMBER STATES, A „SINGLE INTERVENTION SYSTEM FOR EMERGENCIES” IS IMPLEMENTED AND WORKING THAT IS CONNECTED TO 112 EMERGENCY NUMBER. IT IS EXPECTED THAT THE TIME BETWEEN IMPACT AND INTERVENTION CAN BE REDUCED UP TO 50% THROUGH THE USE OF E-CALL. THIS SYSTEM INVOLVES AUTOMATIC CONTACTING OF 112 IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT, BY A DEVICE INSTALLED ON THE CAR (A ROBOT), AS WELL AS PRIORITY CONNECTION TO THE CLOSEST STATION OF 112 SYSTEM AND THE TRANSMISSION OF A MINIMAL SET OF USEFUL DATA FOR INTERVENTION. EU CURRENT REGULATION REQUIRES FROM 2017 THAT HOMOLOGATION OF VEHICLES, FOR SEVERAL TYPES OF VEHICLES, HAS TO BE DEPENDENT BY THE EXISTENCE AND FUNCTIONALITY OF SUCH TYPE OF ROBOT INSTALLED ON THE VEHICLES. THE ARTICLE PRESENTS THE SYSTEM FEATURES AND NEW FUNCTIONALITIES DEVELOPED IN IHEERO PROJECT BASED ON ECALL TECHNOLOGY.
