Vehicle and Node Positioning Method - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240125943 titled 'Vehicle and Node Positioning Method

Simplified Explanation

The embodiment vehicle described in the patent application includes a signal transmission part for wireless network connection outside of shaded areas where GPS signals are not received, and a positioning part to communicate with another vehicle to calculate relative positions.

  • Signal transmission part transmits signals for wireless network connection outside shaded areas
  • Positioning part communicates with other vehicles to calculate relative positions

Potential Applications

The technology could be used in autonomous vehicles, drones, and other mobile devices that require continuous communication and positioning capabilities.

Problems Solved

1. Overcoming GPS signal loss in shaded areas 2. Maintaining communication and positioning in challenging environments

Benefits

1. Improved reliability of wireless network connection 2. Enhanced accuracy of relative positioning 3. Increased safety and efficiency in navigation

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimizing fleet management systems, enhancing emergency response vehicles, improving delivery services, and advancing smart transportation infrastructure.

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the use of vehicle-to-vehicle communication systems in autonomous vehicles to enhance navigation and positioning capabilities.

What are some potential security risks associated with wireless network connections in vehicles?

Potential security risks include hacking, data breaches, unauthorized access to vehicle systems, and interference with communication signals. Implementing robust encryption protocols and security measures is essential to mitigate these risks.

How does the technology in this patent application differ from traditional GPS navigation systems?

The technology in this patent application combines wireless network connections and vehicle-to-vehicle communication to overcome GPS signal loss in shaded areas, providing continuous positioning and communication capabilities even in challenging environments. Traditional GPS navigation systems rely solely on satellite signals for positioning, which may be disrupted in certain conditions.


Original Abstract Submitted

an embodiment vehicle includes a signal transmission part configured to transmit a signal for wireless network connection to an outside of a shaded area where a global positioning system (gps) signal is not received based on the vehicle having entered the shaded area and a positioning part configured to communicate with another vehicle located outside the shaded area and receiving the signal and to calculate a relative position of the vehi
