11. On-board Monitoring: Problems
Trucks & Buses:
J1939 standard
FMS interface
Passenger cars
No standard for CAN-ID’s or data field encoding
Reverse engineering required

12. On-board Monitoring: Problems
Data Transmission
Logging at 1 Hz produces large amount of data
Transmission costs per Mb
On-board data processing
Affordable dataloggers
Processing power (compression, pre-processing)
Memory
