Phase B of the Trusted Truck II project built on the system developed in Phase A (or Year 1). For the implementation portion of the project, systems were added to the trailer to provide additional diagnostic trailer data that can be sent to the TTMC. Tractor and trailer weight, trailer tire pressure and temperature, trailer ID, and shipment data were successfully added to the data set sent to the TTMC. Phase B also included implementation of driver logon authentication through the TTMC. A System Architecture document was written to provide a comprehensive architectural overview of the non-Volvo proprietary elements of the Trusted Truck II project. For the investigation portion of the project, Volvo researched alternative technologies and hardware to enable wireless communication between the trailer and tractor, to obtain diagnostic data from the trailer lights, and to ensure cargo security. The team was able to proceed with implementation of the recommended solutions, resulting in wireless communication of trailer light and cargo door status from the trailer to the tractor. Additionally, Volvo supported the Traffic Signal Priority investigation led by the University of Tennessee through a study of message latency data sent to and from a simulated roadside traffic signal server. All implementation was successfully bench tested outside the test truck environment. Final end-to-end testing inside the test truck of all new features is scheduled to be completed by January 31, 2009, and will be reported on in Phase C of the Trusted Truck project. The Trusted Truck team recommends proceeding with Phase C and D of the project, working towards a final interstate demonstration of issuing a Trusted Truck compliance certificate.
