2. Highlight of Current Activities
One of the objectives of ITS Task Force is to exchange Information and views on ITS standardization activities in each PSO.
The Task Force had a face-to-face meeting on March 2010 in Tokyo with attendees from ETSI, TIA, TTA and ARIB.
In the meeting, the Task Force exchanged updated information and discussed on the followings;
ITS cooperative systems in 700MHz, 5.8/5.9GHz band
Reconfigurable radio systems for ITS
Coordination of the ITS standard activities

3. Strategic Direction
The Task Force will conduct the information exchange on ITS relevant activities among PSOs.
To facilitate the information exchange, the Task Force should continue to invite interested PSOs to participate in the Task Force.
Considering the progress of ITS standardization activities in each ITS PPSO, the Task Force should discuss towards coordination of the ITS standardization activities.

4. Challenges
ITS standardization activities are in progress in each PSO and the region.
Exchange of information on the existing ITS related standards and current ITS standardization activities should be facilitated.
Coordination of ITS standardization activities is desirable to avoid conflicting standards.
The information exchange and the discussions towards coordination should be led by the Task Force.

5. Next Steps/Actions
Continue to exchange information and views on ITS standardization activities.
Invite interested PSOs to participate in the Task Force.
Consider and discuss the possibility on coordination in ITS standardization activities among PSOs.
