Proposal to amend UN R13, 13-H, 79, 89, 130, 131, 139, 140, 152, 155, 156, 157, 171, 175, and 178 by introducing provisions on software identification and software updates. Amendments add new paragraphs referring to Software Identification Number definitions in Consolidated Resolution R.E.3, require manufacturers to provide Technical Services with information on hardware and software influencing performance, permit vehicle manufacturers to apply for new approvals differentiating software versions for registered versus new vehicles while avoiding test duplication, and modify production discontinuation provisions to exclude cases where manufacturers seek approval extensions for software updates of registered vehicles.

Proposal to insert new paragraph 1.2.3 relating to vehicles of categories X and Y, amend footnotes 1 and 3 to reference the Consolidated Resolution on the Construction of Vehicles (R.E.3.), document ECE/TRANS/WP.29/78/Rev.8, and insert new paragraph 5.7 stating that while an ADS feature is active, the BAS shall not influence the performance of the braking system.

Proposal to clarify that UN R139 does not mandate the installation of brake assist systems (BAS) on vehicles but rather specifies requirements for the approval of vehicles should they be equipped with a BAS system.

Proposal to clarify that UN R139 does not mandate the installation of brake assist systems (BAS) on vehicles but rather specifies requirements for the approval of vehicles should they be equipped with a BAS system.

Proposal to clarify application of UN R139 to vehicle submitted for approval under the regulation (i.e., equipped with a brake assist system).

Proposal to clarify the purpose of UN R139 which was originally established through the extraction of brake assist system (BAS) provisions from UN R13-H on brake systems. Within the context of UN R13-H, the BAS provisions were written to assess performance in cases where a vehicle was fitted with a brake assist system. As a stand-alone regulation, UN R139 applies only to vehicles that are equipped with BAS. Therefore, this supplement proposes to refine the text to remove the “if fitted” language and ensure that UN R139 can only be applied to a vehicle equipped with a BAS.

Proposal for a new UN Regulation based upon brake-assist system provisions extracted from UN R13-H in order to facilitate work on the international whole vehicle type approval system.

Review of work towards adapting and/or approving certain UN Regulations for use within the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval regulation.

Revised version of document GRRF/2016/7 pursuant to discussions held during the February 2016 GRRF session, proposing a new UN Regulation based upon brake-assist system provisions extracted from UN R13-H.

Revised version of document GRRF/2016/6 pursuant to discussions held during the February 2016 GRRF session proposing to delete provisions for electronic stability and brake-assist systems from UN R13-H as part of their transposition into new stand-alone regulations.

Proposed new stand-alone UN Regulation comprised of the brake assist systems provisions of UN Regulation 13-H.

In the framework of the International Whole Vehicle Type Approval (IWVTA) discussion, it was agreed to split Regulation No. 13-H into three distinct Regulations: on Braking, on Brake Assist Systems (BAS) and on Electronic Stability Control (ESC). In order to complete this task and to ease the implementation work of Contracting Parties relying on the existing text of the Regulation to mandate BAS or ESC, new transitional provisions are proposed.

Updated proposal to delete provisions for electronic stability and brake-assist systems from UN R13-H as part of their transposition into new stand-alone regulations. This proposal supersedes document GRRF/2014/10.

New proposal to delete provisions for electronic stability and brake-assist systems from UN R13-H as part of their transposition into new stand-alone regulations. This proposal supersedes document GRRF/2014/10.

New proposal to delete provisions for electronic stability and brake-assist systems from UN R13-H as part of their transposition into new stand-alone regulations. This proposal supersedes document GRRF/2014/10.

Amendments to clarify and improve the text of the new regulation that would remove BAS provisions from UN R13-H.

CLEPA proposed a framework for relating independent regulations on electronic subsystems of braking or steering systems to the primary braking/steering regulations. This proposal revises the wording, focusing on ESC systems with relation to the requirements for complex electronic control systems under Regulation 13-H.

Presentation discussing the framework for relating independent regulations on electronic subsystems of braking or steering systems to the primary braking/steering regulations.

Explanation of three options developed for handling the approval of electronic stability controls (ESC) and brake-assist systems (BAS) under regulaitons separate from UN R13-H (light vehicle braking) while fulfilling the requirements of complex electronic systems (CEL).

India noted an erroneous reference to “ESC” in the original document where “BAS” was clearly intended.

Proposal to amend the draft text for the proposed new regulation on BAS which would extract the BAS provisions from the current UN R13-H on light vehicle braking systems. The intention is to clarify the meaning of the text in places where it is ambiguous when taken out of the context of UN R13-H.

Proposal to specify that safety aspects of brake assist systems can be assessed under this new regulation or under UN R13-H. The objective of the proposed wording is to avoid redundant certification of the complex electronic control systems (CEL) aspects of ESC according to both the proposed BAS regulation and UN Regulation No. 13-H (keeping unchanged the level of safety). The proposal would permit the applicant to show evidence that CEL compliance has already been achieved according to Annex 8 of UN Regulation No. 13-H as an alternative to demonstrating compliance with the CEL annex of the BAS regulation.

Proposal to transfer brake assist system systems provisions out of UN Regulation 13-H and into a new stand-alone regulation. The proposal arises from a perceived need to simplify UN R13-H to facilitate its application within the proposed international whole vehicle type approval. This document supersedes document GRRF-75-14.

Proposal for amendments to delete provisions for electronic stability and brake-assist systems from UN R13-H as part of their transposition into new stand-alone regulations.
