Full title and description

Intelligent transport systems — Forward vehicle collision mitigation systems — Operation, performance, and verification requirements. This International Standard defines the concept of operation, required behaviours, system-level requirements and verification/test methods for Forward Vehicle Collision Mitigation Systems (FVCMS).

Abstract

ISO 22839:2013 specifies the concept of operation, minimum functionality, system requirements, system interfaces and test methods for Forward Vehicle Collision Mitigation Systems (FVCMS). It defines the behaviours required of an FVCMS and the system test criteria necessary to verify that an implementation meets the standard; implementation choices are left to designers where appropriate.

Scope

ISO 22839:2013 applies to Forward Vehicle Collision Mitigation Systems (FVCMS) and specifies a system-level concept of operation, minimum functional requirements, interfaces, and verification/test procedures. The standard covers required system behaviors and the test criteria to verify that an implementation meets those requirements; it is intended to be used by system designers, vehicle manufacturers, test laboratories and regulators to define, develop and evaluate FVCMS performance.

Key topics and requirements

• Concept of operation for FVCMS (expected modes and interactions with the driver).
• Minimum functionality and behavioural requirements (warning and mitigation actions).
• System-level requirements including sensing, decision logic and actuation interfaces.
• System interfaces and integration requirements with vehicle control systems.
• Test methods and verification procedures to demonstrate compliance with performance criteria.
• System test criteria and pass/fail conditions for functional behaviours.
• Operational and environmental scenarios to be considered during verification (typical road speeds, target vehicles, lane conditions).
• Requirements intended to minimise inappropriate activations and to preserve driver authority and safety.

The list above synthesizes the principal topics and requirements the standard addresses.

Typical use and users

Primary users are vehicle OEMs, Tier-1 ADAS/FVCMS suppliers, system integrators, test and certification laboratories, regulatory bodies and research organisations. Typical applications include design and validation of on-board mitigation functions (including automated braking or coordinated braking/warning phases), test specification for pre‑market verification, and reference criteria used for regulatory or consumer‑test evaluation.

Related standards

Commonly referenced and complementary standards include: ISO 15623:2013 — Intelligent transport systems — Forward vehicle collision warning systems — Performance requirements and test procedures (related FCW test and performance definitions); and ISO 15622:2018 — Intelligent transport systems — Adaptive cruise control systems — Performance requirements and test procedures (related longitudinal control and ACC interfaces). In regulatory contexts, UNECE regulations on Advanced Emergency Braking Systems (e.g., R131 / R152 and subsequent amendments) are often considered alongside ISO performance standards for vehicle approval and type‑approval testing.
