4 Conventions
4.1 Interoperability test process
4.1.1 Introduction
The goal of interoperability test is to check that devices resulting from protocol implementations are able to work
together and provide the functionalities provided by the protocols. As necessary, one message may be checked during a
test, when a successful functional verification may result from an incorrect behaviour for instance.
A test session can engage one or more EUT. A EUT can be an ITS-S equipment such as a vehicle or a road-side unit or
a Central ITS-S. All EUTs are provided by different vendors.
Each EUT provides one or more PCOs according to its role (e.g. vehicle, traffic light, road side unit, etc.). A PCO can
be used either to monitor the communication traffic at this interface or to inject protocol messages as stimuli or both.
In order to execute the test, any EUT is connected to two types of network:
• The ITS G5 network for communication between EUTs as defined in [1].
• The configuration network used for communication between EUTs and the Test System as defined in [i.2].
5 Test configuration
5.1 Areas definitions
The clauses below describes the different radio configurations required to execute the AUTO_IOT tests.
Different areas are considered for these tests, e.g.:
• The Geonetworking area which is the ITS G5 radio curvature area.
• The Relevance area which is an area defined for each protocol message such as DENM.
NOTE: The default configuration is the configuration to use when no specific configuration is indicated.
5.2 Common rules
5.2.0 General
All the tests require usage of common rules.
5.2.1 Radio rules definitions
All messages defined in the present document shall be sent on the channel type G5-CCH with the channel number 180,
see ETSI EN 302 663 [5].
On-link: EUTs are in radio range and have exchanged CAMs and built a neighbour table.
Off-link: EUTs are outside radio range.
NOTE: It is applicable only for real-time testing mode.
ETSI

9 ETSI TS 103 192-2 V1.1.1 (2018-09)
5.2.2 GPS rules definitions
All messages indicating fixed or relative GPS coordinates shall contain well-formatted data, this include the altitude and
confident data.
5.2.3 Conformance checks rules definitions
The following basic conformance checks apply for all interoperability tests:
• CAM protocol:
- ItsPduHeader check
- Mandatory protocol IEs
• DENM protocol:
- ItsPduHeader check
- Mandatory protocol IEs
• BTP protocol:
- BTP-A/BTP-B type
- Destination port
• Geonetworking protocol:
- GN address
- Position vector content
- Hop limit decreasing
- Mandatory protocol IEs
5.3 Triggered messages
Triggered messages are used to indicate:
1) An action to be executed on the EUT (from the Test System to the EUT)
2) Or to confirm the execution of an action (from the EUT to the Test System)
3) Or to indicate an event at the HMI level (from the EUT to the Test System)
4) Or to indicates any unsolicited message (from the EUT to the Test System)
In case of real time execution, the vendor shall implement the different triggering interface [i.2].
NOTE: In case of post-mortem execution, these message are not sent.
5.4 Test configuration overview
5.4.0 General
The clauses below describe the different radio configurations required to execute the AUTO_IOT tests.

6 Test Suite Structure (TSS)
6.1 Structure of tests
Table 1 shows the AUTO_IOT Test Suite Structure (TSS) including its subgroups defined for conformance testing.
Table 1: TSS for AUTO_IOT
Root Group Sub-group Category
AUTO_IOT DENM protocol Forwarding Valid and Inopportune
 Road Works Warning Valid and Inopportune
 Road Hazard Signal Valid and Inopportune
 Stationary Vehicle Warning Valid and Inopportune
 Geo-broadcast message caching Valid and Inopportune
CAM protocol Neighbours detection Valid and Inopportune
 Collision Risk Warning Valid and Inopportune
GN protocol Duplicate Address Detection Valid and Inopportune

The test suite is structured as a tree with the root defined as AUTO_IOT. The tree is of rank 3 with the first rank a
Group, the second a sub-group and the third a category. The third rank is the standard ISO conformance test categories.
