ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING COMMUNICATION USING SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18099474 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING COMMUNICATION USING SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an electronic device that can measure distance and determine congestion in different sections. Here are the key points:
- The device has a communication module and a processor connected to it.
- It can broadcast a message to measure distance in multiple subsections.
- It can receive responses from external devices in each subsection.
- Based on the number of responses received, it can determine congestion in each subsection.
- It can then broadcast a message with congestion information for a specific subsection in a different section.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Traffic management systems: The device can be used to measure congestion in different sections of a road network and provide real-time information to traffic management systems.
- Public transportation: It can help monitor congestion in different sections of a bus or train route and optimize schedules accordingly.
- Smart cities: The device can be integrated into various infrastructure systems to monitor congestion in different areas and improve overall efficiency.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Accurate distance measurement: The device provides a method for measuring distance in subsections, allowing for more precise congestion analysis.
- Real-time congestion information: By receiving responses from external devices, the device can provide up-to-date congestion information for different sections.
- Efficient communication: The device uses a communication module to broadcast and receive messages, enabling effective communication with external devices.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved traffic flow: By providing congestion information, the device can help optimize traffic flow and reduce congestion in specific sections.
- Enhanced transportation planning: The data collected by the device can be used to improve transportation planning and infrastructure development.
- Increased efficiency: The device allows for real-time monitoring of congestion, enabling prompt actions to alleviate traffic issues and improve overall efficiency.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device, according to various embodiments of the present disclosure, comprises: a communication module and a processor operatively connected to the communication module, wherein the processor may be configured to: broadcast, through the communication module, a first message for measuring a distance in each of a plurality of distance measurement subsections included in a first distance measurement section; receive, via the communication module, in each of the plurality of distance measurement subsections, at least one second message in response to the first message from at least one external electronic device; determine information related to congestion of each of the plurality of distance measurement subsections, based on the number of the at least one second message received in each of the plurality of distance measurement subsections; and broadcast, through the communication module, a third message including the information related to the congestion in a first distance measurement subsection of a plurality of distance measurement subsections included in a second distance measurement section.
