Scope
This SAE Information Report SAE J2931 establishes the requirements for digital communication between Plug-In Electric Vehicles (PEV), the Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) and the utility or service provider, Energy Services Interface (ESI), Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and Home Area Network (HAN).
This is the third version of this document and completes the effort that specifies the digital communication protocol stack between Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEV) and the Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE). The purpose of the stack outlined in Figure 1 and defined by Layers 3 to 6 of the OSI Reference Model (Figure 1) is to use the functions of Layers 1 and 2 specified in SAE J2931/4 and export the functionalities to Layer 7 as specified in SAE J2847/2 (as of August 1, 2012, revision) and SAE J2847/1 (targeting revision at the end of 2012).
Communications between the EVSE and other than PEV entities such as AMI, ESI, HAN, Utility head-end, etc. as shown in Figure 2 are outside of the scope of this document. It is presumed that a bridging device will be required to carry PEV information beyond the EVSE and may be collocated with the latter.
The effort continues however, to additional comments and viewpoints, while the task force also continues additional testing and early implementation. Results of this effort will then be incorporated into updates of this document and lead to a republished versions as needed.
The SAE J2931 family of documents has been organized into several “slash” subsections:
-
This document, SAE J2931/1, defines architecture and general requirements including association, registration, security, and HAN requirements, as well as mapping to other SAE documents.
-
SAE J2931/2 is under development and is proposed to define a MAC & PHY layer implementation of digital communications using FSK and the SAE J1772™ Pilot wire.
-
SAE J2931/3 is under development and is proposed to define a MAC & PHY layer implementation of digital communications using NB OFDM and either the SAE J1772™ Pilot wire or mains.
-
SAE J2931/4 defines the MAC & PHY layer implementation of digital communications using BB OFDM and either the SAE J1772™ Pilot wire or mains.
Testing and validation of the aforementioned physical layer specifications is ongoing, and it is possible that the results of said testing may preclude one or more of the proposed solutions as unable to meet the technical requirements. Reduction of the available options to a single, worldwide standard remains the long-term goal.
The document mapping of the PEV communication standards are further defined in section 4.
Rationale
This SAE Technical Information Report is being updated to include information on the layers 3 to 6 of the ISO OSI 7-layer Communications stack to support DC Charging Application as specified in SAE J2847/2 over Broadband PLC defined in SAE J2931/4.
Several updates have been made to DIN SPEC 70121, and the ISO/IEC 15118 documents and this SAE document along with SAE J2847/2 and SAE J2931/4 are being updated to harmonize with this current level of completion.

Issuing Committee
The Hybrid Technical Standards Committee reports to the Powertrain Systems Group of the Motor Vehicle Council. The Committee is responsible for developing and maintaining SAE Standards, Recommended Practices, and Information Reports related to the field of hybrid vehicle technology. The following topics are within the scope of this committee's work: ¿ safety aspects of hybrid systems in vehicles ¿ test procedures to establish the performance of hybrid systems and components ¿ nomenclature ¿ vehicle interface and serviceability requirements Participants in the SAE Hybrid Technical Standards Committee include OEMs, suppliers, consulting firms, government, and other interested parties.

* Redlines comparisons are available for those standards
listed in the Revision History that contain a radio button. A
redline comparison of the current version against a revision is
accomplished by selecting the radio button next to the standard and
then selecting 'compare'. At this time, Redline versions only exist
for some AMS standards. SAE will continue to add redline versioning
with ongoing updates to SAE MOBILUS.
