eCall Testing

Automated Emergency Call System - EU

Background

Since April 1, 2018 the implementation of eCall technology in new car models has become obligatory. According to the new EU regulation, automotive manufacturers are obliged to integrate the new eCall system into all new car models like passenger cars (M1) or light commercial vehicles (N1). The installed emergency call component group must provide proof of compliance with the requirements of the 2017/79 EU regulation.

Regulatory requirements for eCall certification according to EU 2017/79:

Annex 1: eCall systems resilience check (in case of heavy accidents)
Annex 2: full-scale impact test assessment
Annex 3: crash resistance of audio equipment
Annex 4: co-existence of TPS and eCall
Annex 5: automatic triggering
Annex 6: compatibility of e-Call systems with positioning services/devices
Annex 7: (IVS self-test)/ self-test of onboard systems
Annex 8: privacy and data protection

eCall certification according to UN-R 144

This new UN regulation, which came into force in July 2018, is part of the Global Decade of Action on Road Safety. A plan announced by the UN General Assembly to reduce the number of road accident victims around the world. The UN-R 144 is valid for the UNECE (United Nations Economic Commission) member states. Depending on the approval type, it adds supplementary test requirements.
