eCall variant as described and defined in EN 16102
NOTE: In summary, it includes the transmission of the ‘IVS dataset’ (plus possibly additional data) from the vehicle to a TPSP, and the establishment of a voice call with this TPSP. In the event of an emergency situation likely to require assistance from the emergency services, the TPSP establishes a voice connection with the most appropriate PSAP. The TPSP also forwards all relevant information concerning the event, including the information specified as mandatory by the MSD standard (EN 15722) as a minimum, to this most appropriate PSAP. The TPSP also provides voice communication between the PSAP and the vehicle occupants, at least by setting up a conference call, if this is required by any of the parties involved.
