PRE-SECURITY MESSAGE VERIFICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17936981 titled 'PRE-SECURITY MESSAGE VERIFICATION

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for a vehicle to filter infrastructure-to-vehicle messages received from road-side units (RSUs) based on the vehicle's current location.

  • Messages are received from RSUs.
  • A check-in location identifier is stored when the vehicle approaches a check-in location.
  • Second messages are received from RSUs.
  • If the message identifier matches the check-in location identifier, the messages are forwarded to a vehicle application for processing.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in:

  • Intelligent transportation systems
  • Vehicle-to-infrastructure communication systems

Problems Solved

This technology solves the following problems:

  • Efficient filtering of messages based on vehicle location
  • Improved communication between vehicles and infrastructure

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Enhanced data processing efficiency
  • Better utilization of vehicle-to-infrastructure communication

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications of this technology include:

  • Automotive industry
  • Smart city infrastructure development

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art for this technology could be:

  • Vehicle-to-vehicle communication systems

Unanswered Questions

How does the system handle multiple vehicles approaching the same check-in location simultaneously?

The system may need to prioritize messages based on proximity or other factors to ensure efficient communication.

What measures are in place to ensure the security and privacy of the data exchanged between vehicles and infrastructure?

Encryption protocols and authentication mechanisms may be implemented to protect the data exchanged between vehicles and infrastructure.


Original Abstract Submitted

Performing filtering of infrastructure-to-vehicle (VI) messages by a vehicle is provided. First messages are received from one or more road-side units (RSUs). Responsive to the vehicle approaching a check-in location indicated by the first messages, a check-in location identifier is stored for the check-in location retrieved from the first messages as being a current check-in location for the vehicle. Second messages are received from the one or more RSUs. Responsive to a message identifier in the second messages matching the check-in location identifier, the second messages are forwarded to a vehicle application for processing. Otherwise the second messages are discarded.
