Original Abstract Submitted
Embodiments of the disclosure describe systems and methods for controlling operation of a Transport Refrigeration Unit (TRU) of a vehicle, the vehicle comprising a container configured to store cargo. The method comprises receiving first input information from at least one sensor positioned inside the container. Further, the method comprises determining a current amount of cargo load in the container based on the received first input information from the at least one sensor. Furthermore, the method comprises controlling operation of the TRU by setting one or more temperature regulation parameters for the container based on the determined current amount of cargo load in the container. Further, the operation of the TRU is controlled by triggering a specific type of security mode, among a plurality of modes, in response to detecting a type of refrigerant leak in the vehicle.
