PLATOON-BASED PROTOCOL INTERWORKING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17840552 titled 'PLATOON-BASED PROTOCOL INTERWORKING
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system for wireless communications, specifically in the context of a platoon of network devices such as vehicles. The system involves receiving multiple messages using one communication protocol and generating a summary message that encapsulates the information from the received messages. This summary message is then transmitted using a different communication protocol.
- The system is designed for wireless communications in a platoon of network devices.
- Multiple messages are received using one communication protocol.
- A summary message is generated to summarize the received messages.
- The summary message is transmitted using a different communication protocol.
Potential Applications
This technology has potential applications in various fields where wireless communication is essential, such as:
- Vehicle-to-vehicle communication systems
- Intelligent transportation systems
- Fleet management and logistics
- Cooperative driving and platooning systems
Problems Solved
The technology addresses several challenges in wireless communications within a platoon of network devices:
- Efficient handling of multiple messages within a platoon
- Reducing the amount of data transmitted by summarizing messages
- Compatibility between different communication protocols
Benefits
The use of this technology offers several benefits:
- Improved communication efficiency within a platoon
- Reduced bandwidth usage by transmitting summary messages
- Flexibility in utilizing different communication protocols
Original Abstract Submitted
Disclosed are systems, apparatuses, processes, and computer-readable media for wireless communications. For example, a process may include receiving, at a network device (e.g., a vehicle or other type of network device), a plurality of messages using a first type of communication protocol, wherein the network device is part of a platoon including a plurality of network devices (e.g., a plurality of vehicles or other network device). The process may include generating, at the network device, a summary message summarizing the plurality of messages. The process may include transmitting the summary message using a second type of communication protocol.
