ELECTRONIC DEVICE MOUNTED ON VEHICLE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18168286 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE MOUNTED ON VEHICLE AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an electronic device and a method for operating the device on a vehicle. The device monitors the number of occupants in the vehicle and obtains communication access information, including the number of connectors accessing a communication module and the amount of data used through the module. It also uses an occupant monitoring system (OMS) to recognize the operation pattern of the occupants. Based on this information, the device predicts the data throughput to be transmitted and received through the communication module and determines whether to switch from a first communication scheme to a second communication scheme, which is 5G millimeter wave (mmWave) communication.
- An electronic device is mounted on a vehicle to monitor the number of occupants and their communication access information.
- The device uses an occupant monitoring system (OMS) to recognize the operation pattern of the occupants.
- Based on the obtained information, the device predicts the data throughput to be transmitted and received through the communication module.
- The device determines whether to switch from a first communication scheme to a second communication scheme, which is 5G mmWave communication.
Potential Applications
- This technology can be applied in vehicles to optimize communication schemes based on the number of occupants and their data usage patterns.
- It can be used in connected cars to enhance communication capabilities and provide a seamless experience for occupants.
- The technology can also be utilized in public transportation systems to efficiently manage communication resources based on passenger demand.
Problems Solved
- The technology solves the problem of inefficient communication scheme selection in vehicles, where the number of occupants and their data usage patterns are not considered.
- It addresses the challenge of limited communication resources in vehicles by predicting data throughput and dynamically switching to a more suitable communication scheme.
Benefits
- The technology improves communication efficiency in vehicles by selecting the most appropriate communication scheme based on the number of occupants and their data usage patterns.
- It enhances the overall connectivity experience for occupants by ensuring optimal data throughput.
- The dynamic switching between communication schemes allows for better utilization of communication resources and improved performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device mounted on a vehicle and an operating method of the electronic device are provided. The electronic device monitor the number of occupants riding in the vehicle, obtain communication access information includes information about the number of connectors accessing a communication module from among the occupants and information about an amount of data use through the communication module, recognize an operation pattern of the occupants, by using an occupant monitoring system (OMS), predict a data throughput to be transmitted and received through the communication module, by using the number of occupants, the obtained communication access information, and the operation pattern of the occupants, and determine, based on the predicted data throughout, whether to change a first communication scheme in use to a second communication scheme, which is fifth generation (5G) millimeter wave (mmWave) communication.
