Using the two 5.9 GHz antennas, this Baby Racer can communicate with a Swarco ACTROS traffic controller which is equipped also with a LinkBird modem, directly driven from its main CPU-card. On the 8 inch touch screen display, three ITS-applications are being demonstrated. The traffic light phases for a normal car are displayed, with the information transmitted by SPaT Message (Signal Phase and Timing), sent by the controller every second.
For a further scenario the BMW Baby Racer can send a DENM (Decentralised Environmental Notification Message) to the ACTROS controller, causing a change to yellow blinking on each direction to warn approaching drivers of its presence.
Meanwhile, the third driver assistance function shows the approach of an ambulance. Using a CAM (Cooperative Awareness Message) the emergency vehicle requests a prior green from the traffic controller. With the minimum switching time the controller blocks conflicting streams and switches to green for the ambulance.
