This document describes remote support provided to LSADS operated at Level 4 automation
on predefined routes by a remotely located human in order to facilitate safe trip

performance of the dynamic driving task (DDT), and remote monitoring required for
these functions.
This document is applicable to RS-LSADS in vehicles that provide passenger transport
or logistics services on predefined routes.
This document specifies:
-
— the terms and definitions related to RS-LSADS and the system architecture of RS-LSADS;
-
— functions of RS-LSADS, which are: remote monitoring, remote assistance and remote driving that is operated under very limited conditions, and conditions under which they need to be activated;
-
— the performance requirements, system requirements and performance test procedures of RS-LSADS;
-
— the data to be communicated between vehicles and the remote support facility (but not protocols or other aspects of communication system).
This document is applicable to remote support of operational and tactical functions
during continuous operations, but does not apply to strategic functions or to RS-LSADS
