No substitute explanation has been generated for why Vehicle-to-Pedestrian exists.
Operating model
How V2P works
The approved explanation should connect physical systems, communications, data, security, and operating responsibility.
Vehicle-to-Pedestrian communication extends V2X awareness to people walking, cycling, using mobility devices, or otherwise traveling outside vehicles. Implementations may use dedicated devices, connected infrastructure, or network services to share location and movement information and generate conflict warnings. Device availability, positioning accuracy, radio compatibility, privacy, and user participation remain important constraints.

Interoperability
Standards
3GPP TS 22.185
3GPP TS 22.185 defines service requirements for vehicle, pedestrian, infrastructure, and network V2X communication. It matters to V2X because it gives independently developed systems a common technical contract.
J2735
Defines message sets and data elements used for dedicated short-range and connected-vehicle communications, including safety and mobility messages.
