Hi Alex, Well, VRU will have OCB...but it depends on what you call VRU...for example, motorcycles and scooters are both part of VRUs and the CAR2CAR currently develops an adapted ITS-G5 system for them. Yet, for pedestrian, indeed no OCB foreseen so far...so, if it is about knowing who has OCB or not (say: can use OCB or cannot use), then V2VRU might be too large denomination..

For the term V2P (Vehicle to Pedestrian) I would like to suggest addition of term VRU as well: Vulnerable Road Users. I suggest the new term V2VRU: Vehicle to VRU. VRUs dont have OCB interfaces (smartphones's wifi interfaces cant be set at 5.9GHz), yet they are at most risk since they are not protected by cages like the automobiles are. V2VRU is a problem, because OCB-equipped vehicles can communicate to OCB-free VRUs only by means of high-latency cellular network (50ms 4G vs 1.5ms OCB). In safety, lower latency is preferred over higher latency. I would like to suggest the above addition in the Problem Statement draft, section 3 "Use Cases". > From the point of view of vehicular safety, its about exchange of BSM > (Basic Safety Messages) between vehicles as per SAEJ735 standard. > These safety communications is always one-hop communication and for > very good reason IEEE WAVE standards did not bother to require IPv6 > transport for carrying these messages.
