Title : Next-Generation Pan-European eCall
Authors : Randall Gellens

Filename : draft-ietf-ecrit-ecall-00.txt
Pages : 17

Abstract:
This document describes how to use IP-based emergency services
mechanisms to support the next generation of the Pan European in-
vehicle emergency call service defined under the eSafety initiative
of the European Commission (generally referred to as "eCall"). eCall
is a standardized and mandated system for a special form of emergency
calls placed by vehicles. eCall deployment is required by 2015 in
European Union member states, and eCall (and eCall-compatible
systems) are also being deployed in other regions. eCall provides an
integrated voice path and a standardized set of vehicle, sensor
(e.g., crash related), and location data. An eCall is recognized and
handled as a specialized form of emergency call and is routed to a
specialized eCall-capable Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP)
capable of processing the vehicle data and trained in handling
emergency calls from vehicles.
Currently, eCall functions over circuit-switched cellular telephony;
work on next-generation eCall (NG-eCall, sometimes called packet-
switched eCall or PS-eCall) is now in process, and this document
assists in that work by describing how to support eCall within the
IP-based emergency services infrastructure.
This document also registers a MIME Content Type and an Emergency
Call Additional Data Block for the eCall vehicle data.
