            COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2017/79
      of 12 September 2016
      establishing detailed technical requirements and test procedures for the EC type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to their 112-based eCall in-vehicles systems, of 112-based eCall in-vehicle separate technical units and components and supplementing and amending Regulation (EU) 2015/758 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to the exemptions and applicable standards
      (Text with EEA relevance)
      THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
      Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
      Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2015/758 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2015 concerning type-approval requirements for the deployment of the eCall in-vehicle system based on the 112 service and amending Directive 2007/46/EC (1), and in particular Article 2(2), Article 5(8) and (9) and Article 6(12) thereof,
      Whereas:
      
                  (1)
               
               
                  Regulation (EU) 2015/758 lays down a general obligation for new types of vehicles of categories M1 and N1 to be equipped with 112-based eCall in-vehicle systems as of 31 March 2018.
               
            
                  (2)
               
               
                  It is necessary to set out the detailed technical requirements and test procedures for the approval of motor vehicles with respect to their 112-based eCall in-vehicle systems. The test procedures also allow for testing and approval of 112-based eCall in-vehicle separate technical units (‘STUs’) and components intended for fitment in motor vehicles or for integration in 112-based eCall in-vehicle systems.
               
            
                  (3)
               
               
                  Tests should be carried out by technical services in their capacity as foreseen in Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) that establishes the general framework for the EC type-approval of motor vehicles and defines the roles and responsibilities of all the actors involved at different stages of the approval process.
               
            
                  (4)
               
               
                  Tests and requirements should be designed in such a way that duplicated testing is avoided. In addition, some flexibility is required regarding special purpose vehicles that are built in multiple stages in accordance with Directive 2007/46/EC as they are exempted from the frontal and lateral collision requirements under UNECE Regulations 94 and 95. For that reason, the approval granted at a previous stage of the process to the base vehicle with respect to the 112-based eCall in-vehicle system should remain valid, unless the system or its sensors were modified after the approval.
               
            
                  (5)
               
               
                  There are cases where certain classes of vehicles cannot for technical reasons be fitted with an appropriate eCall triggering mechanism and should be exempted from the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2015/758. Following an assessment of the costs and benefits carried out by the Commission and taking into account the relevant safety and technical aspects, those classes of vehicles are identified and included in a list established in Annex IX.
               
            
                  (6)
               
               
                  The 112-based eCall in-vehicle system needs to remain functional after a severe accident. An automatic eCall is most beneficial in a high-severity collision where the risk of occupants of the vehicle being incapacitated and not able to call for assistance without an eCall system is highest. The 112-based eCall in-vehicle systems, components and STUs should therefore be tested to verify their sustained functionality after being subjected to inertial loads similar to those that may occur during a severe vehicle crash.
               
            
                  (7)
               
               
                  The post-crash functioning and automatic triggering of the 112-based eCall in-vehicle system should also be ensured at vehicle level. A full-scale impact test procedure should therefore be set out to verify that the vehicle is constructed in such a way that its 112-based eCall in-vehicle system survives a frontal and side collision in its original mounting situation and configuration.
               
            
                  (8)
               
               
                  The core functionality of a 112-based eCall in-vehicle system is not only to notify the Public Safety Answering Point (‘PSAP’) of an accident, but also to establish a voice connection between occupants of the vehicle and a PSAP operator. The audio equipment of the 112-based eCall in-vehicle system should therefore be tested after the full-scale crash tests to guarantee that it does not suffer loudness reduction or distortions that make voice communication impossible.
               
            
                  (9)
               
               
                  Where a 112-based eCall in-vehicle system is approved for use in conjunction with a system providing third party services (‘TPS system’), it should be ensured that only one of those systems is active at a time and that the 112-based eCall in-vehicle system is triggered automatically when the TPS system does not function. The manufacturer of vehicles fitted with 112-based eCall in-vehicle system and TPS system should explain the fall-back procedure built-in the TPS system and describe the principles of the changeover mechanism between the TPS system and the 112-based eCall in-vehicle system.
               
            
                  (10)
               
               
                  To ensure the provision of accurate and reliable position information, the 112-based eCall in-vehicle system should be able to use the positioning services provided by the Galileo and the EGNOS systems.
               
            
                  (11)
               
               
                  The 112-based eCall in-vehicle system should warn the occupants of a vehicle in the event the system is unable to execute an emergency call. A procedure should therefore be set out for the verification of the self-testing of the system and of its compliance with the malfunction indication requirements.
               
            
                  (12)
               
               
                  Manufacturers should ensure that the 112-based eCall in-vehicle systems are not traceable and not subject to any constant tracking. For that purpose, a test procedure should be set out to verify that the 112-based eCall in-vehicle system is not available for communication with the PSAP before the eCall is triggered.
               
            
                  (13)
               
               
                  Any data processed through the 112-based eCall in-vehicle system must be adequate, relevant and proportionate to the purposes for which those data are collected and processed. To that end, appropriate procedures should be laid down to verify that the data in the internal memory of the system are automatically and continuously removed and are not retained longer than necessary for the purpose of handling the emergency call.
               
            
                  (14)
               
               
                  The versions of the applicable standards on which the requirements for eCall are based should be updated.
               
            
                  (15)
               
               
                  Vehicle manufacturers should be given sufficient time to adapt to the technical requirements for the approval of 112-based eCall in-vehicle systems. The Member States should also be given sufficient time to deploy on their territory the PSAP infrastructure required for the proper receipt and handling of emergency calls. For that reason, the date of application of this Regulation should be the same as the date of compulsory application of the 112-based eCall in-vehicle systems in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2015/758,
               
            HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

            Technical requirements and procedures for testing the resistance of eCall in-vehicle systems to severe crashes (high-severity deceleration test)
         
         1.   Requirements
         1.1.   Performance requirements
         1.1.1.   The high-severity deceleration test of eCall in-vehicle systems, STUs and components, carried out in accordance with point 2, shall be considered satisfactory if the following requirements are demonstrated post-deceleration/acceleration event.
         1.1.2.   MSD emission and encoding: The eCall system or representative arrangement shall be able to successfully transmit an MSD to a PSAP test point.
         1.1.3.   Incident time determination: The eCall system or representative arrangement shall be able to determine an up-to-date timestamp for an eCall incident.
         1.1.4.   Position determination: The eCall system or representative arrangement shall be able to determine accurately the up-to-date vehicle location.
         1.1.5.   Mobile network connectivity: The eCall system or representative arrangement shall be able to connect to and transmit data via the mobile network.
         2.   Test procedure
         2.1.   Purpose of the high-severity deceleration test procedure
         The purpose of this test is to verify the sustained functionality of the 112-based eCall system after being subjected to inertial loads which may occur during a severe vehicle crash.
         2.2.   The following tests shall be performed on a representative arrangement of parts (without a vehicle body).
         2.2.1.   A representative arrangement shall include all parts required by the eCall system to successfully populate and transmit the MSD in an eCall.
         2.2.2.   This shall include the control module and the power source and any other parts required to perform the test eCall.
         2.2.3.   This shall include the external antenna for mobile communication.
         2.2.4.   The wiring harness may be represented only by the relevant connectors (connected to the tested components) and a length of wire. The length of the wiring harness and its eventual fixation can be decided by the manufacturer in agreement with the technical service referred to in Article 3(31) of Directive 2007/46/EC so that it is representative for the different installation configurations of the eCall system.
         2.3.   Deceleration/acceleration procedure
         2.3.1.   The following conditions shall apply:
         
                     (a)
                  
                  
                     The test shall be conducted at an ambient temperature of 20 ± 10 °C.
                  
               
                     (b)
                  
                  
                     At the beginning of the test, the power supply shall be charged sufficiently to allow performing the subsequent verification tests.
                  
               2.3.2.   The tested parts shall be connected to the test fixture by the intended mountings provided for the purpose of attaching them to a vehicle. If the intended mountings of the power source are specifically designed to break in order to release the power source in an impact event, they shall not be included in the test. The technical service shall verify that such release in a real-life high-severity crash event shall not impair the functionality of the system (e.g. no disconnection from the power source).
         2.3.3.   If additional brackets or fixtures are used as part of the deceleration/acceleration facility, these shall provide a sufficiently rigid connection to the deceleration/acceleration facility to not affect the outcome of the test.
         2.3.4.   The eCall system shall be decelerated or accelerated in compliance with the pulse corridor that is specified in the Table and Figure. The acceleration/deceleration shall be measured at a rigid part of the deceleration/acceleration facility and filtered at CFC-60.
         2.3.5.   The test pulse shall be within the minimum and maximum values as specified in the Table. The maximum velocity change ΔV shall be 70 km/h [+ 0/– 2 km/h]. However, if with the agreement of the manufacturer, the test was performed at a higher acceleration or deceleration level, a higher ΔV and/or longer duration the test shall be considered satisfactory.
         2.3.6.   The parts referred to in point 2.2 shall be tested in a worst case configuration. Their position and orientation on the sled shall correspond to the installation recommendations of the manufacturer and shall be indicated in the type-approval certificate issued under Implementing Regulation (EU) 2017/78.

         2.4.3.   Before performing the test call, ensure that:
         
                     (a)
                  
                  
                     the eCall system receives (real or simulated) GNSS signals to an extent representative of open sky conditions;
                  
               
                     (b)
                  
                  
                     the eCall system has had sufficient time in a powered state to achieve a GNSS position fix;
                  
               
                     (c)
                  
                  
                     one of the connection procedures defined in point 2.7, as agreed between the technical service and the manufacturer, will be applied for any test call;
                  
               
                     (d)
                  
                  
                     the dedicated PSAP test point is available to receive an eCall emitted by the 112-based system;
                  
               
                     (e)
                  
                  
                     a false eCall to a genuine PSAP cannot be made over the live network; and

                     Verify that an MSD was received by the PSAP test point. This shall be verified by a record of the PSAP test point showing that an MSD emitted from the eCall system following the trigger was received and successfully decoded. If the MSD decoding failed at redundancy version MSD rv0 but was successful at a higher redundancy version or in robust modulator mode, as defined in ETSI/TS 126 267, this is acceptable.

                     Verify that the MSD contained an up-to-date timestamp. This shall be verified by a test record showing that the timestamp contained in the MSD received by the PSAP test point does not deviate from the exact recorded time of the trigger activation by more than 60 seconds. The transmission may be repeated if the eCall system failed to achieve a GNSS position fix before the test.
                  
               
                     (c)
                  
                  
                     Verify that the MSD contained an accurate, up-to-date location. This shall be verified in accordance with the Vehicle Location Test Procedure as defined in point 2.5 by a test record showing that the deviation between IVS location and true location, d_IVS, is less than 150 metres and the confidence bit transmitted to the PSAP test point indicates 'position can be trusted'.
                  
               2.4.6.   Clear down the test call using the appropriate PSAP test point command (e.g. hang up).

                     the actual location of the GNSS antenna (known location or determined with another means than the eCall system), when using real GNSS signals; or
                  
               
                     (b)
                  
                  
                     the simulated location, when using simulated GNSS signals.

               2.4.4.   Clear down the test call using the appropriate PSAP test point command (e.g. hang up).
         2.4.5.   If the automatic test call could not be performed successfully due to vehicle-external factors, it shall be permissible to verify the automatic trigger following the impact via the internal record transaction function of the in-vehicle system. This register shall be capable to store received trigger signals in non-volatile memory. The test engineer shall have access to the data stored in the in-vehicle system and shall verify that no record of automatic trigger signal is stored before the impact event and that a record of an automatic trigger signal is stored after the impact event.
         2.4.6.   If the test call was performed with the vehicle connected to an off-vehicle power supply (in cases where the impact test was carried out with the standard vehicle power supply not installed), verify that the on-board electrical system feeding the eCall in-vehicle system remained intact. This shall be verified by a record of a test engineer confirming a successful check of the integrity of the on-board electrical system including the dummy in-vehicle power source (visual inspection for mechanical damage to either the power source's mounting bracket or its structure) and the connections via its terminals.
         2.5.   Positioning test procedure

         2.6.   Antenna test procedure
         2.6.1.   If the connection procedure applied for the test call did not make use of over-the-air data transmission (point 2.7.3 of Annex I to this Regulation), the sustained functionality of the mobile network antenna shall be verified by checking the antenna tuning status after the full-scale impact test according to the procedure defined in point 2.6 of Annex I to this Regulation. In addition, it shall be verified that no wire breakage or short-circuit of the antenna feed line occurred by checking the electrical resistance between the end points of the wire and between the wire and vehicle ground.
         2.7.   Connection procedures
         The connection procedures defined in point 2.7 of Annex I to this Regulation shall apply.

         ANNEX IV
         
            Co-existence of third party services (TPS) with the 112-based eCall in-vehicle systems
         
         1.   Requirements
         1.1.   The following requirements apply to 112-based eCall in-vehicle systems, STUs and (optionally for) components that shall be used in conjunction with a TPS eCall in-vehicle system.
         1.2.   Performance requirements
         1.2.1.   The 112-based system shall be deactivated as long as the TPS system is active and does function.
         1.2.2.   The 112-based system shall be automatically triggered in the event that the TPS system is triggered but does not function.
         1.3.   Documentation requirements
         1.3.1.   The manufacturer shall provide the technical service with an explanation of the design provisions built into the TPS system to ensure automatic triggering of the 112-based system (‘fall-back procedure’) in the event that the TPS system does not function. This documentation shall describe the principles of the changeover mechanism.
         1.3.2.   The documentation shall be supported by an analysis which shows, in overall terms, any hardware or software failure conditions that would result in an inability of the TPS system to perform a successful call and how the TPS system will behave on the occurrence of these.
         This may be based on a Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA), a Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) or any appropriate similar process as agreed between the technical service and the manufacturer.
         The chosen analytical approach(es) shall be established and maintained by the manufacturer and shall be made open for inspection by the technical service at the time of the type-approval.
         2.   Test procedure
         2.1.   Purpose of the TPS co-existence test procedure
         The purpose of this test procedure is to verify for eCall in-vehicle systems that shall be used in conjunction with a TPS eCall in-vehicle system, that there is only one system active at a time and that the 112-based system is triggered automatically in the event that the TPS system does not function.
         2.2.   The following tests shall be performed either on a vehicle with an eCall in-vehicle system installed or on a representative arrangement of parts.
         2.3.   The deactivation of the 112-based system while the TPS system is active shall be verified by performing a manually triggered test call.
         2.3.1.   Before performing the test call, ensure:
         
                     (a)
                  
                  
                     that one of the connection procedures defined in point 2.7 of Annex I to this Regulation, as agreed between the technical service and the manufacturer, will be applied for any test call;
                  
               
                     (b)
                  
                  
                     that the dedicated PSAP test point is available to receive an eCall emitted by the 112-based system;
                  
               
                     (c)
                  
                  
                     that the TPSP test point is available to receive a call emitted by the TPS system;
                  
               
                     (d)
                  
                  
                     that a false eCall to a genuine PSAP cannot be made over the live network; and
                  
               
                     (e)
                  
                  
                     that the vehicle ignition or master control switch is activated.
                  
               2.3.2.   Perform a test call by applying a manual trigger of the TPS system (push mode).
         2.3.3.   Verify:
         
                     (a)
                  
                  
                     that a call was established with the TPSP test point by a record of the TPSP test point showing that it did receive a call initiation signal or by a successful voice connection to the TPSP test point; and

         1.2.   Documentation requirements
         1.2.1.   The manufacturer shall provide a statement which affirms that the strategy chosen to trigger an automatic eCall ensures triggering also in accident configurations dissimilar from and/or of a lower severity than the collisions simulated in the applicable full-scale crash tests in UN Regulation No 94 and UN Regulation No 95.
         1.2.2.   The manufacturer shall choose the collision typology and severity and will demonstrate that it is significantly different than the full-scale crash tests.
         1.2.3.   The manufacturer shall provide the type-approval authority with an explanation and technical documentation which shows, in overall terms, how this is achieved.
         1.2.3.1.   Documentation that shows, to the satisfaction of the type-approval authority, that the activation of supplemental restraint systems and the severity level, chosen at the discretion of the manufacturer, also induces an automatic eCall shall be considered satisfactory.
         1.2.3.2.   Documentation that shows, to the satisfaction of the type-approval authority, the strategy to prevent unjustified eCalls from being made in case of impacts of a severity level that is not considered a severe accident. Moreover, failure mode analysis shall be provided which shows that any hardware or software faults shall not result in automatic triggering of an eCall.
         1.2.3.3.   Airbag control unit specification drawings, specification data notes, sensitivity drawings, relevant circuit diagrams or similar documents considered equivalent by the type-approval authority would be suitable means to demonstrate this connection.
         1.2.3.4.   The extended documentation package shall remain strictly confidential. It may be kept by the approval authority, or, at the discretion of the approval authority, may be retained by the manufacturer. In case the manufacturer retains the documentation package, that package shall be identified and dated by the approval authority once reviewed and approved. It shall be made available for inspection by the approval authority at the time of approval or at any time during the validity of the approval.

         3.2.1.   Before performing the test call, ensure that:
         
                     (a)
                  
                  
                     one of the connection procedures defined in point 2.7 of Annex I to this Regulation, as agreed between the technical service and the manufacturer, will be applied for any test call;
                  
               
                     (b)
                  
                  
                     the dedicated PSAP test point is available to receive an eCall emitted by the 112-based system;
                  
               
                     (c)
                  
                  
                     a false eCall to a genuine PSAP cannot be made over the live network; and
                  
               
                     (d)
                  
                  
                     the vehicle ignition or master control switch is activated.
                  
               3.2.2.   Perform a test call by applying a manual trigger of the system (push mode) with the TPS disabled.
         3.2.3.   Verify that a call was established with the PSAP test point by a record of the PSAP test point showing that it received a call initiation signal or by a successful voice connection to the PSAP test point.
         3.2.4.   Clear down the test call using the appropriate PSAP test point command (e.g. hang up).
         3.2.5.   If the call attempt of the 112-based system fails during the test, the test procedure may be repeated.
         3.3.   The lack of a log file in the TPS system shall be verified via access to the part of the system where eCall log files are stored.
         3.3.1.   The Technical Service tester shall be facilitated with access to where the eCall log files are stored in the IVS. This will involve the potential to download from the IVS any log files so that they can be viewed by the tester.
         3.3.2.   The requirement is determined to have been passed if no log files are present in the TPS system in-vehicle system memory.
         3.3.3.   The presence of a log file in the TPS system pertaining to an eCall that has occurred via the 112-based system constitutes a failure.
         3.4.   Connection procedures
         The connection procedures defined in point 2.7 of Annex I to this Regulation shall apply.
