19. ERA GLONASS Project Status
Draft amendments to Technical Regulations on Vehicle Safety were published and passed public discussion. Presently, the amendments are undergoing the state approval process.
Draft IVS requirements were circulated and discussed with project stakeholders.
ERA GLONASS infrastructure design is in progress. Infrastructure will be available to support trials from the beginning of 2011, full-scale pilot projects from the beginning of 2012 and be ready for production by the end of 2012.
NIS was licensed as the Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO).
The drafting of regulations for 112-call prioritization is currently in progress.
Pilot projects were launched in two regions (Kaluga and Ryazan). Two more regions (the Moscow region and the Leningrad region) will join the pilot program this year.
The pilot program in the Leningrad region is being designed to support the cross-border ERA GLONASS / eCall joint pilot project with Finland.

20. Amendments to Regulations on Vehicle Safety
Amendments are proposed to come into effect on January 1, 2013 for all vehicles manufactured after this date.
Retrofit IVS configuration is allowed, as well as OEM preinstalled configuration.
GLONASS should be used to locate the vehicle either alone or in combination with other systems (GPS and/or GALILEO).
IVS should enable automatic and manual emergency call with MSD transmission.
The regulations contain provisions for recording and transmission of the acceleration profile before, and in the course of, the accident.
The IVS system shall report its status at preconfigured time intervals as part of its operability control. If it identifies an internal failure, the system reports such a failure immediately.
It should be possible to initiate IVS test from the vehicle at a service center or in course of technical inspection.

21. In-Vehicle System Requirements
MSD transmission mechanism
ETSI in-band modem (primary method)
SMS (secondary method);
SMS can be used at the request of the PSAP operator (if voice call was established, but data could not be transmitted in-band) or initiated by IVS if voice call could not be established;
Testing mode for user-initiated IVS functional test;
OTA configuration;
OTA firmware update;
Optional functional requirements to support value-added services.
Requirements were discussed with more than 10 global, and more than 15 Russian suppliers of telematic systems. Received comments will be incorporated into a stable version of the requirements to be finalized in November.

22. 112-calls prioritization
112-calls prioritization is an important component of ERA GLONASS project.
NIS will prepare a proposal by the end of this year for mandatory use of relevant standards (listed below) to ensure that 112-calls are prioritized throughout all segments, where technically possible.
Mandate is expected to be issued by state authorities in 2011.

23. Conclusions
Harmonization of ERA GLONASS and European eCall standards is required to provide service coverage for European vehicles in Russia and Russian vehicles in the EU.
Aligned requirements will create benefits for both projects, and the industry, by increasing the reuse factor of IVS and infrastructure components.
Coordinated efforts in system design and implementation activities in Russia and the EU will allow early access to important results and sharing of best practices.
