摘要：	Participants in commercial vehicle operations (CVO) are pursuing avenues that will allow them to increase their efficiency and productivity in the surface transportation environment. Intermodal solutions are being sought that will lead to the improved movement of vehicles and goods which, in turn, will increase customer service and satisfaction, produce higher return on investments, and decrease environmental impacts inherent in the industry. The Intelligent Transportation Society (ITS) of America, in conjunction with the United States Department of Transportation, has begun to identify areas in which technology, such as information processing, communications, and electronics, can be used to improve and hasten full deployment of CVO nationwide. CVO's two sets of basic user functions are regulatory and operational. Widespread deployment of CVO would greatly benefit both sets of user functions. Dedicated short range communication (DSRC) has been identified as the means to facilitate this deployment by establishing a communications link between vehicles and the roadside. To ensure compatibility and interoperability between the various CVO applications, DSRC standards need to be developed. While DSRC systems are currently being used in electronic toll and traffic management (ETTM), motor freight/fleet management, port-of-entry, and corridor applications, no standards currently exist that encompass all applications of DSRC. A standard does exist, however, for identifying and tracking equipment. It was developed and adopted by the American Trucking Associations (ATA), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). This standard is presently used to monitor and track the location of equipment and cargo, including containers, trucks, trailers, buses, autos and rail cars. The tagging system based on this standard is used and endorsed by the ATA and the Association of American Railroads (AAR) and is being combined with electronic data interchange (EDI) to provide real-time tracking of equipment and cargo. Before full deployment of CVO can be accomplished, compatibility and interoperability of DSRC systems and applications must be achieved through standards for equipment specifications and practices. ITS America committees have defined DSRC requirements for ETTM and drafted a DSRC requirements definition for CVO's regulatory user functions. Other ITS users should define and determine the DSRC needs for their applications so that overall requirements may be used as a whole for standards development. It is critical, for the successful implementation of the national ITS architecture, that a single DSRC standard is developed for all ITS ap
