5.2 Workflow U.K.
5.2.1 Operations U.K.
The workflow of operations is represented in Figure 14.5.
The steps are described below:
a.
Whenever the vehicle is in operation (ignition ON) the tachograph is providing data to the VU function. The VU function prepares the Data for the remote communication function (encrypted) and updates the VUPM held in the memory of the DSRC-VU (as defined in 4.1.1.1 — 4.1.1.2). The Data collected shall be formatted as determined in 5.4.4 — 5.4.5 below.
b.
On every occasion that the Data is updated, the timestamp defined in the security data concept shall be updated.
c.
The VUSM function secures the data in accordance with the procedures determined in Appendix 11.
d.
On every occasion that the Data is updated (see 4.1.1.1 — 4.1.1.2), the Data shall be transferred to the DSRC-VU, where it replaces any previous data, in order that updated current data (the Data) shall always be available to be provided in the event of an interrogation by an REDCR. When supplied by the VU to the DSRC-VU the Data shall be identifiable by the filename RTMData or by ApplicationID and Attribute identifiers.
e.
If an agent of the competent control authorities wishes to target a vehicle and collect the Data from the targeted vehicle, the agent of the competent control authorities shall first insert his/her smartcard in the REDCR to enable the Communication and to allow the SM-REDCR to verify its authenticity and decrypt the data.
f.
The agent of the competent control authority then targets a vehicle and requests the data through remote communication. The REDCR opens a 5.8 GHz DSRC interface session with the DSRC-VU of the targeted vehicle, and requests the Data. The Data is transferred to the REDCR through the wireless communication system as a DSRC Attribute using the Application service GET as defined in 5.4. The Attribute contains the encrypted payload data values and the DSRC security data.
g.
The data is analyzed by the REDCR equipment and provided to the agent of the competent control authority.
h.
The agent of the competent control authority uses the data to assist in a decision of whether or not to stop for a detailed inspection, or ask another agent of the competent control authority to stop the vehicle.
5.2.2 Interpretation of the Data received via the DSRC communication U.K.
DSC_26Data received across the 5.8 GHz interface shall carry the meaning and import defined in 5.4.4 and 5.4.5 below and only that meaning and import, and shall be understood within the objectives defined therein. In accordance with the provisions of Regulation (EU) No 165/2014, the Data shall be used only to provide relevant information to a competent control authority to assist them to determine which vehicle should be stopped for physical inspection, and shall be subsequently destroyed in accordance with Article 9 of Regulation (EU) No 165/2014.U.K.
