The Vehicle-to-Everything Pooled Fund Study (V2XPFS) is a partnership of transportation agencies who have established a program to facilitate the development and evaluation of Connected Vehicle applications. The program prepares state, local, and international transportation agencies for the deployment of Connected Vehicle technologies.
This PFS was approved by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) with a Study Number of TPF-5(555). Details can be found HERE.
The objectives of this PFS are
To provide technology transfer to state, local, and international transportation agencies as well as vehicle Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) in preparing for the deployment of connected vehicle infrastructure and to provide input to the AASHTO, SAE, ITE, and ITS America, various working groups and cohorts organized around V2X, USDOT V2X Program, and other national initiatives.
To establish a multi-phase program to facilitate research, field demonstration, evaluation, and technology transfer of connected vehicle infrastructure, vehicles, and applications.
To aid transportation agencies and OEMs in justifying and promoting the large-scale use of connected vehicle environment and applications through modeling, development, engineering, and planning activities.
The scope of work of this PFS include
Research, development, and evaluation of connected vehicle applications.
Improved technology transfer to state and local agencies through:
Documenting and sharing deployment best practices and guidelines
Providing input into emerging standards
Identifying additional requirements within the Connected Vehicle Program to connected vehicle technology by transportation agencies and OEMs
Coordinating with OEMs on infrastructure and vehicle tests, application development, and standards development.
