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.
