Physical Objects
This page lists the Physical Objects that comprise the Physical View of the Connected Vehicle Reference Implementation Architecture. They are divided up into five categories shown below. Click on one of the tabs to jump to the table for that category.
- All Physical Objects. (These are all the physical objects that comprise the Physical View of the Connected Vehicle Reference Implementation Architecture.)
- Physical Objects that contain application objects. (These are the physical objects that provide the functionality needed to satisfy the connected vehicle application requirements.)
- Physical Objects that do not contain application objects. (These are the physical objects that are peripheral to the connected vehicle environment, e.g. a financial institution or weather service. CVRIA shows interfaces to and from these supporting or external physical objects but does not define functionality.)
- 'Other' Physical Objects. (These are the physical objects that are the mirror image of a physical object in the architecture. For example a Traffic Management Center (TMC) may need to communicate with another TMC for traffic signal coordination. These 'other' physical objects allow CVRIA to show the interfaces between like objects.
- Human Physical Objects (These are the physical objects that represent human operators or users of the system. They are important to see where the human interfaces are in the overall connected vehicle environment.)
Each tab is further subdivided to show the different classes of Physical Objects: Centers, Field Equipment, Support Systems, Traveler Devices, and Vehicle-based Equipment. The color coding of the rows is meant to roughly match the color coding used on the application diagrams.
- All Physical Objects
- With Application Objects
- Without Application Objects
- 'Other' Physical Objects
- Human Physical Objects
